Thank you @stefan for the image! I'm pinning this. If I follow you, please refollow me at the new place. Many thanks.

📣 Whatever it takes to bring followers over to my new @[email protected] account, I've failed. So, please spread the word to my usual friends to follow me there if somehow I messed up that part of the move. I'm having a tough time getting it right. Sorry.📢
