    In the mood for blogging? Why not try Scribbles? It&#39;s so easy to use. https://forkingmad.uk/post/get-scribbling It&#39;s a shame that we seem to have lost the joy of writing a personal blog. Social media posts have a life time of seconds, blog posts are there for much longer. I especially like when someone discovers one of my witterings months later and it helps them, or brings joy, or thought. Chances of that happening on an ever-scrolling social timeline --- nil. This is NOT a s...

    Massive kudos to the 2,700+ health care workers in #gaza right now administering #polio vaccinations. A very challenging and complex situation but they&#39;re in there doing what most humans do best... Caring.

    I saw this post from Mr Mastodon and it made me think..... Surely we should be encouraging users to support their local instance? These are mostly run by enthusiast, who might get almost no financial support.

Mastodon wouldn&#39;t be where it is today without the good will of thousands of local admin. I&#39;m not saying Mastodon HQ should not receive anything, as th...

    My #FiftyIn50 #blogging challenge is over. I reflect on what I learned. https://forkingmad.uk/post/it-ends-at-fifty Not mentioned in the post, but I comment here.... It was clear that almost no one on the fediverse clicked to read any of my posts. I know a few did follow along, and I am grateful. Is this a reflection of disinterested in me, or my posts, or blogging in general? Or laziness not to click through, but to expect content hand fed directly into the fedi post. One for me to reflec...

    Hello people. I&#39;m on the move. I was going to import all those I follow to my new profile. However, of the 318 I follow, only a small number are now active. I&#39;d rather not bloat my new account unnecessarily. So I&#39;m asking for your help. If you&#39;re still active and still love me(!) or are at least interested in me, can you follow me... @daj@gofer.social I will folliw you back. Thanks guys and gals.
