@Mastodon I want to sincerely thank you and the whole team for making my life better through Mastodon. You all do so much good in the world. After X and the state of social media, this is very much still needed. Thank you for providing me my happy place.

Pixelfed will never introduce ads. Ever.

Multiple acquisition offers this year? All declined. Another one last week? Also declined.

I built Pixelfed for the people, not shareholders.

That's why we're exploring Web Monetization - direct creator payments with zero privacy compromise.

I won't sell out now, or ever.

I love you too much, and am forever grateful for you helping me come out and become the dev I always dreamed of ❤️

Current* conditions near Marquette, MI:

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

– Frank Zappa

In tempestuous times like these, after everything above and aloft has been secured, nothing more can be done but passively to await the issue of the gale.

you persist in telling me the most mystifying and exasperating stories

A climate tech startup attempted to have me removed from reviewing them for a funding body by claiming that I had a conflict of interest (which I didn't). When the funding body inquired about the conflict of interest, I replied, "My knowledge conflicts with their interest."

The previous home I talked about was a bust unfort but we may have found something ideal! A little chalet we can rent for a longer time in a quiet place❤️

Currently I'm looking for stuff to sell I don't use to pay for the move, we're setting aside some money for moving itself

I know it's not Mastodon hosting but a little help goes a long way 🦸

You mean like The Old Man and the Gravy, right?

It was the best of times.
It was the gravy of times.
#Gravy

I'll let you cover the rest
