"At FediCon, as much happened in the cafes, bars and lobbies around the conference hall as during the talks. Lots of servers in the Fediverse are patches, or Third Spaces. They’re communities."

Energised by FediCon, @michael has put his pen to paper to explore how we can grow the Fediverse by thinking outside of the current space.

Earlier this week Ghost announced a major update. With it, every Ghost publication is now on the Open Social Web.

This is a huge step forward for the Open Social Web and a real testament to how work across the Social Web is benefitting creators and organisations away from Big Tech.

I'm done with GitHub.

(cue the well……bye! Tombstone meme! 🤠)

I won’t be starting any new software projects on GitHub going forward. To the extent that I am able, I am leaving GitHub.

CEO Thomas Dohmke can go pound sand.

OTOH I am very excited with what the folks at @Codeberg have been doing, built on top of the open source @forgejo platform. Imagine that! An #OpenSource project powering the sharing of open source software! 😅

Fresh on my #blog — "Quoting Hollie on Eleventy"
I defy anyone disillusioned with writing code to not be buoyed by Hollie's enthusiasm!

This blog tells the story of a girl with a deep love for filmmaking, but her mother wanted her to become a lawyer. For a long time, they didn’t agree but her passion for film was too strong even when it wasn’t easy to explain. Choosing filmmaking over law is something she has never regretted because it is the kind of life she always wanted to live.
