Mozilla.Social is going away.Mozilla.Social is going away.
If you like being here on the fediverse, please support your local instance. Good practice in general, but I'd like to specifically call out users of mstdn.social - if you're on that instance, you seriously need to throw a few bones @stux 's way. He can't be expected to shoulder the expenses for one of the more important instances all be himself.
Or we can let independent instances die off until Mastodon becomes the private property of one or two centralized instances. Our choice.
Mozilla (@[email protected])
We’ve made the hard decision to end our experiment with Mozilla.social and will shut down the Mastodon instance on December 17, 2024. Thank you for being part of the Mozilla.social community and providing feedback during our closed beta. You can continue to use Mozilla.social until December 17. Before that date, you can download your data here (https://mozilla.social/settings/export), and migrate your account to another instance following these instructions (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mozilla-social-faq).

Sometimes I think about how if singapore is so worried about Chinese disinformation and espionage (and they are), a very easy antidote to that is to really lean into our southeast asian identity.@skinnylatte Apropos of nothing, but you reminded me of it, I just read a wonderful SciFi book where one of the key characters is a Teochew lesbian from Singapore who lives in the Bay Area.
It's The Future, by Naomi Alderman.

I post this every once in a while coz I think it’s an important cultural document: how a high end Cantonese restaurant kitchen works, according to someone I know who worked in one and wrote about it@skinnylatte Very cool.
I'd never heard the term "马王" before.
Tangentially, my husband brought home a box of frozen "xiao long bao" from Costco last week. Suffice it to say, while they were okay dumplings, they definitely didn't pass the xiao long bao test in my book. For me, real XLB should cauterize my insides with the first bite with a molten hot spray of tasty soup. These dumplings had zero soup inside. Zero. I'd call cultural imperialism, but I'm not Chinese.

I may not have as much talent as the rest of the #BandcampFriday folks, so definitely go support them, but I did recently upload my first song on the site, which you can download for free.@stefan You're very talented!

Still having trouble logging onto my @Vivaldi social account on anything other than my phone, which is why I’ve been so absent, but it did let me post this recent fortune cookie. Quite au courant@Vivaldi Good suggestions! I was just able to get in after nuking my custom hosts file AND using a guest profile!
Thank you!
Now I'll have to figure out what the bad entry is in my custom hosts file that blocked my login.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
