The amount of shit I saw on other social platforms was unreal. I’ve been using BlueSky exclusively for a week. It’s such a refreshing change not seeing constant ads or content I’m not interested in. I’m enjoying it so much I’ve deleted Instagram alongside Twitter from my phone.

Signed into Twitter today for the first time in weeks. Incredibly, I'm still getting bot follows. Time to delete my account I think.

Spent the morning at a free whittling class with my wife and son. We made some pretty awesome Christmas decorations out of wood.

Have the “popular with friends” posts always been shown in the following feed or is this something new?

I thought RFK JR wasn’t anti-vax but wanted better testing before rollout?

To state the very obvious, this would put an avowed anti-vaxxer in charge of vaccines, allowing him to thwart the development and approval of life-saving shots. It's almost too horrific to fathom—a potential death sentence for our families and children. It's lethal. www.politico.com/news/2024/11...

This is a badass list of people you should follow.

Surveys are hard. Finding a diverse group of coding-focused creators isn't much more effort. Here's a list of creators to add to "Other" under Resources that aren't just the same dudes we see year to year. I put it together in a few minutes. You can copy it from the ALT text. I'll thread it too.

As we have clear skies here in the North West UK I've got the #Seestar out and am shooting Andromeda. But first I grabbed a photo of our closest companion in waxing gibbous phase, approx 75% illuminated. Pretty pleased with this one, you can really see the depth in the craters towards the south. 🔭🧪

Had to dive into the User-Agent to tackle a tricky Windows-specific issue on a client's website. Thankfully, HubSpot’s request object made it easy to access the User-Agent and get things sorted!

Chapter 1 - Elon Musk buys Twitter

This would be a great time to retreat from the internet and work more on my book, but my book is about a disaster that no one can stop.

I got a phishing email to my @proton.me account today.It looked legit, until I noticed the URL/email address it came from. I’ve changed passwords just incase.

Loving how Astro + React is changing the game for static sites. Perfect for marketing sites, docs, and blogs. The Islands architecture is chef’s kiss 🏝️

You can’t seriously tell me young Americans see Donald Trump as a beacon of hope. When did the world become so full of hate?

Checked in over on Twitter this morning, that place is a shitshow. I’m not American, yet all I’m seeing is Trump / Vance posts. Fuck you Elon. 🖕

Moving over to BlueSky is like going to a family reunion, but with all the likeable family members.

It’s nice see a few friendly faces that I follow on the other site. Glad to see them posting over here.

The algorithm over on Twitter is wild! Random nonsense I’m not interested in and the copious amount of ads and bots is ridiculous. Hoping it’s a much calmer experience over here on BlueSky.

You are up to date.
