So many still don't understand the open source contract. I don't develop code for your needs. I develop code for my needs and share it with you to use however you like (in accordance with the license). Nothing says I have to continue working on it or accept contributions. I might, but I might not.

This is the way! ❤️ Just pick a project or maintainer you like and donate a little bit, it doesn't have to be much. Just here and there to show your support.

I'm a quiet lately. Find your developer type: cronotype.vercel.app/flensrocker And there are reasons... hopefully back in the not so far future!

Watched the "Rust inspired TS" talk by @rijk.nyc I haven't looked at #Rust yet but I do use these patterns in #TS and #CSharp (for some years), so I can confirm that they are really helpful. youtu.be/WDCVGaF4IGo

If your non-Following feeds (For You, Discover) are stuck showing you content in one language then check whether you have Content Languages setting set to that language. To fix it and see content without the language filtering: 1. Go to Settings > Languages 2. Uncheck all "Content Languages"

I've had this question noodling for a couple of days: Who are the Mr. Rogers, Carl Sagans, Bob Rosses, Steve Irwins of this generation? People who inspire large audiences with their thoughtfulness, kindness, and empathy? I feel like John and Hank Green and Mark Rober are both contenders — who else?

Only a few are missing... #BloomScrolling

I’m still hesitant to share my writing, but then I remembered anything I write is a million times better than AI generated crap, so screw it michellebarker.co.uk/writing/human/

Today I learned something about me...

PSA: Just don't use #Google #Search - we all know it's enshittified. I use the Redirector extension (to navigate away from translated content on MSDN etc.) and just added a new rule. See ALT text for JSON export. chromewebstore.google.com/detail/redir...

Since Google I/O (2026) I switched my browser's search engine to noai.duckduckgo.com and I never looked back, not even for "fun". I should have done this earlier. It's just pure enshittification.

This is true and they are also more readable on the callsite.

Cool, just had an hiccup in Bluesky where it responded with an 500 Internal Server Error, maybe due to age verfication, because that message popped up when opening in another tab, but adding the birthday to my profile also returned a 500. Let's see...

While my favourite rhododendron is getting more and more blossoms, the other one (violet) is in full bloom mode. And a lot of bumblebees are doing their work. Our local word (nothern Germany) for bumblebees is "Plüschmors" which translates (literally) into "plushbutt".

Soon there will be colour...

This time of the year. #BloomScrolling

Please read, it's important to understand.

Finally switched the default search engine of my browser to noai.duckduckgo.com

Daniel is right.

I got enshittified by a bird. Smells like a fish sandwich. So it was some kind of seagull, which makes sense in a city with a harbour. A big seagull. 🤷

Green is not my favourite colour, but "spring green" is my favourite green.

This. I struggle to understand why one would not care.

We had a "constructive" weekend. After painting it a second time it must been placed at the right spot and secured with something. Add some "dirt" and plants and done...

So wonderful!!!

After 4 years I reached the mark of 10000km on my bike. Almost every kilometer just between home and office. #bike

Interesting approach!

My donation this month goes to #EuroSky! fund.eurosky.tech

Hello from #Eurosky! Easy Move - Big Deal! I only struggle with changing my password... but I'm sure that will resolve somehow.

I'm one of the people. Thank you all! ❤️

So something interesting that happened this week: Mastodon announced that they'd received €614,000 from Sovereign Tech Agency (german), and with part of that funding they're going to be implementing support for the FediMod FIRES protocol which I spent last year building whilst barely surviving.

"That's quite expensive. We'll just build our own." "Your library doesn't do what we need. Fix it now. For free." "Why do you want budget to pay for free software?" "You said this was free! How dare you charge money for the latest version!" Sound familiar? Help us fix it: usewhatworks.org

Brilliant! Performance as part of accessability! Go watch it, it's 30 minutes well spent.

I wish I could have sat in on the meeting where Anthropic decided the Claude logo should be Kurt Vonnegut's drawing of an asshole

I'm introverted and a little bit autistic. But what the raise of AI taught me is, that I like to code because of the humans. I hope I make it through this bubble...
