behold, the certificat

soapbox is a frontend for pleroma, an alternative fediverse server.

soapbox looks well-designed, modern and professional, and is designed to appeal to ex twitter users.

soapbox’s lead dev, however, is a massive transphobic bigot. as a result it’s almost entirely ignored outside certain specific and awful communities.

it’s ignored because he’s a transphobic bigot. the same standard should apply to any software or service here. show them the door.

The printer undercounted some things and we found 13 extra books!

I don’t really think there will ever be another “drop” or new copies discovered, so this truly is the last notification.

He’s here! The prototype, anyway. He’s big, squishy, and friend-shaped. We’ll try to make him as affordable as possible. You’ll have to wait a couple more months to get one, but we might open pre-orders relatively soon.

If you're using Firefox, your first add-on should be uBlock Origin. At this point, it's not just blocking ads. It's basic Internet hygiene.

However, especially if you handle sensitive sites like bank/payment portals or one to several social accounts, your second add-on should be this little thing called Firefox Multi-Account Containers.

It's extremely useful. You can keep the defaults or wipe them all and make your own. So long as you don't sign in to things outside of containers, things opened in Firefox by default won't have access to your accounts. Sites you sign in to will only be signed in on that specific container. Links followed in Fun will not have access to your already signed-in sites on Bank. Links opened from your social account in Personal don't risk accidental interactions from a different social account under Professional.

Social containers are even more helpful for sites that don't support account switching. Even if they do, all you have to do is use a different account in each container and you can view both accounts side-by-side.

Oh, and it's published by Mozilla themselves within Firefox's add-on repository. You can trust it about as much as you trust Firefox.

My friend @porsupah - offline name Zoe - died last night in hospital, of the cancer that was diagnosed back at the end of 2022.

She was a lovely person as I’m sure many of you know - kind, generous, and always ready to help and support others. And very good at putting a cheerful face on things, even with those of us who knew her irl.

More obituary posting to follow, but that’s the important part.

glasgows en route!!!!

Please consider helping out my very dear friend Caius (@dzuk) with their gofundme for their housing situation. They need to leave their current appartment soon and would like to be able to remain in their area so they have easier access to mental healthcare and work prospects.

Please boost for reach!

EDIT: Goal reached! Thank you so much too everybody who donated after seeing my post. The fundraiser is still open as any further amounts of money would help a lot. Please consider donating if you can!

Ja, unangenehm, so ein Lokführerstreik. Noch viel unangenehmer ist es, Lokführer bei der Deutschen Bahn zu sein.
