@_elena yay! I'll pretend the timing was carefully planned

High anxiety this week for our friends across the Atlantic, but all over the world, really. Whenever my close friends are facing a tough situation, I offer my support but also encourage them to think: “What is the BEST that could happen?”I need to heed this advice and focus on best case scenarios for the next 24 hours.

3-year-old: “Mom what are you doing?”Me: “I’m building a computer. This is called a Raspberry Pi”3-year-old grabs the Pi box and smells it: “Is there soap inside?” When I reply “No” she completely loses interest and goes to play with her toy coffee machine #EleLearnsLinux #adventuresincomputing #RaspberryPi

@_elena Happy Anniversary! You approach the Fediverse with such joy and curiosity, it’s always a pleasure to read your blog. And you can definitely encourage others to join !!

If you harbored any doubts regarding #Bluesky and their claims of decentralization, you HAVE TO read this brilliant, insightful toot by @jonny about the impossibility of multiple relays and what would happen if one tried to split off from #Bsky the corporation: https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/113365406995624763I actually recommend you read the whole thread - and follow Jonny! (Thank you for the recommendation @oblomov!) #socialmedia #ATProto

@_elena I feel like this may be a universal mom thing?

@opendna @_elena no problem and thanks for recommending the Open Graph plugin

@_elena @oblomov And also @jonny thread led to another discussion, which then led to a HN submission: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41952994

@pfefferle Thank you Matthias! In this case I may not touch anything / keep it as is I really appreciate your help!

@_elena like if you follow https://linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html you could already learn so much stuff

@_elena I listened to that in the car home today, another great episode (and I could absolutely FEEL @ben vibrating in his chair, talking about how media orgs have waited for tech to happen to them, but have a chance to engage and build the open social web!). Also I was thinking, with your amazing blog series: I think it must be past time for @mike to invite *you* on the show…

@tom @_elena @ricmac @elena Yeah, I figured this was the issue. It's not really a big deal, especially thanks to Mastodon showing a verified URL in search. Love that feature!

apologies for the belated reply but I didn’t get a notification for thisInterop is like marriage. If only one partner is trying to make it work out, it doesn't usually end well. In this case there was a complicated interaction between the streams repository and Akkoma (my reply was to @[email protected] and Mastodon --  which resulted in you not getting a notification. It should be fixed going forward even though it isn't technically a streams bug. It's just a confluence of misunderstandings and project policy/implementation differences. Not sure how Hubzilla relates to any of this. Yes, I created that software years ago; but gave it to the community in 2018 and moved on to other things. I'm retired now.

@_elena Welcome to another one of my servers Enjoy! I like your blog posts.

@_elena ohh nice! but that means youre one of the very few people I know of that started on bluesky and then transitioned to mastodon instead haha, its mostly the other way around, thats cool

My "spray and pray" approach to coding worked once again I LOVE seeing the author tag linking to my Mastodon profile under previews of my blog posts: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-great-day-for-writers-introducing-mastodon-author-tags/Thank you @Mastodon team! This is awesome.(For the record, this is really easy to do on Wordpress - a little trickier for Ghost, thus the mention of my "spray and pray" approach)Edit: as @shollyethan smartly suggested, Ghost has a “code injection” tab (so it’s easy there too!)

@pfefferle @ele

@pfefferle @oblomov @ele I LOVE IT SOOO MUCH! Thank you again Matthias. I feel like my website has superpowers now I'm writing about it for a new issue of my newsletter #TheFutureIsFederated... hopefully inspiring more people to use it
