Like clockwork, at some point in during a story […] we’ll say burn it down and just burn everything to the ground, cause it feels like things are so bad in a story that only flames will purify the hell that we have built for ourselves. BUT you do then work through that […] to realizing that […] even as you are waiting for major change that you think might not come, incremental change is possible and valuable.”
- John Oliver after The Last Dab: Xperience

“The deeper you look into these stories, the more you realize how flawed things are systemically but the more you encounter people working incredibly hard to change things...

Oh, and FINALLY my #homelab is back up and running. Maybe I'll tell the story of why everything had to go dark for a bit another time...

Anyway, it's time for some spring (summer) cleaning! 🧹

Let's delete some older Docker containers! ␡🗑️🔥

Catching up on #news with everything happening recently… Just came across an announcement about Google Domains selling to SquareSpace and shutting down (6/15, yeah I am behind still) and I was like Wait, what?! Why?! 😭

As the subreddit blackout begins, I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to the Reddit community and everyone standing up ❤️ Let's hope Reddit listens. https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/147a8xb/as_the_subreddit_blackout_begins_i_wanted_to_say/

Reddit this week.

What they should do: Step back, ask for forgiveness and announce “free" API access but only for their Premium sub. Would end the strike, increase revenue and still kneecap 3rd party apps.

What they'll probably do: Nothing.

What they may do: Something that’s really stupid.

What I have the popcorn ready for: Mass takeover of subreddits, followed by announcement of a move towards AI based mods.

Back on mastodon.social after some crazy stuff happened at home which resulted in my servers being put out of commission… maybe I’ll say more about it in the future. But right now, I am still very much so living though this situation… 😭

Thoughts on #Twitter racing against the clock…

Usually, one clock is more than enough to sink a company, but they are trying to tackle at least 5 at the same time. #Countdown to: #Attrition, #Bankruptcy, #Irrelevance, #Devolution & #Exhaustion.
