„Linux users who have Secure Boot enabled on their systems knowingly or unknowingly rely on a key from Microsoft that is set to expire in September. After that point, Microsoft will no longer use that key to sign the shim first-stage UEFI bootloader that is used by Linux distributions to boot the kernel with Secure Boot. But the replacement key, which has been available since 2023, may not be installed on many systems; worse yet, it may require the hardware vendor to issue an update for the system firmware, which may or may not happen.“

You can export all your Data from Mastodon in the settings "Export" function (it's your data after all). I was genuinely surprised, that my archive is already 597 MB and that I have have 3235 posts here already 😊

I'm currently working on a desktop app, to display the contents of a Mastodon export (KDE-Frameworks based) to have a neat little viewer for it. Not sure ojn the name (yet)

I'll soon enable auto-delete for my data, so it's removed after 90 days.
