@Tusky @fdroidorg

UPDATE - Tusky is back in Play Store, developer just posted about it:

chaos.social/@ConnyDuck/105909

However, I would strongly advise everyone to install F-Droid anyway. It's much better for your privacy and it is a plan B in case Google does stuff like this again.

The installation is easy if you take it one step at a time (see this guide: switching.software/replace/goo ) , and once it's installed it works like any other app store.

@gabor @flowerenby @clinkingdog The Fosstodon instance actually encourages posting about different topics:

hub.fosstodon.org/were-not-jus

But they do have a policy of being English-only (with a few exceptions):

hub.fosstodon.org/why-fosstodo

Which is why I mentioned I could create a new account somewhere else if I feel like posting in Portuguese.

It is truly amazing how much I have learned since I joined Fosstodon.

I went from vaguely being able to write Python scripts to publishing my own apps in just a few months and after years of stagnation.

The atmosphere and community here is just so motivating to learn new stuff and try new things.

I am really looking forward to the next cool FOSS app I discover or the next interesting and nice Person I will meet in the Fediverse

Being still relatively new to Mastodon, this is something I am genuinely curious about:

Do you have Mastodon accounts on multiple instances?

Ah I forgot to include this request, but a few boosts from all you "influencers" 😉 would be appreciated for bigger sample size... 🙏

Writing about the current relationship between Russia and the West 

In the Navalny case, propaganda is state sponsored and present on both sides. Russian propaganda is scrambling to cast at least some amount of doubt on the poisoning of Navalny by Russian state actors. Propaganda in the West is, in the meantime, engaged in a kind of white-washing that tries to show Navalny as a hero and a real opponent to Putin, which is false.

really impresses me. I like the look and feel, configurability, distribution ethos and the fact that it's the underdog. It amazes me that someone could take on this task in a market that's pretty much saturated and develop such an excellent android app. If I end up staying on android, this is the email app for me. I will buy the pro features if I do.

my wife will get one day of home office with her new job long-term and we are looking to buy a 27" display for docking her Lenovo Yoga. It will mainly be used for office applications. We can invest a little bit more. Harder to shop for a monitor now, since stores are still closed so only option is ordering online. Can you guys recommend any display in particular?

anyone else has issues with Firefox on MacOS? A lot of websites just appear weird and distorted... it's kind of always been like this, which is why I don't use it on my Mac (I use Opera)

next up in my posts on German politics (gearing up to the elections this year...): the-less-than-enthusiastic commitment of probable Green chancellor candidate Habeck to freeing Julian Assange... and I have a look at other German parties' approach to the issue (spoiler alert: everyone wants him set free, even the far right)

Following up on my earlier posts about my COVID-19 vaccination a few days ago, I wrote a blog post today to "promote" the AstraZeneca vaccine a little... I don't hold stock in the company :-) but it annoys me that it's lying around in warehouses. Don't know about you, but I can't wait to get this pandemic behind us. I do hope that vaccination in Germany and everywhere else will soon pick up speed!

Update: i did get a reaction in the end, I woke up in the night with chills and body aches. Now some headache. Managing with OTC painkillers. It wasn't too bad, however it is still the strongest I have reacted to any vaccine that I can remember.

I got the AstraZeneca shot today! I feel a little bit of the vaccination reaction coming on, but not too bad. I am glad I got it. There is a little bit of a hysteria developing around this particular brand of vaccine in Germany. I think it's important that people look at getting vaccinated as a community project, and not as a race for a resource, where you have to make sure you get the shot with the biggest possible advantage for yourself (arguably Pfizer or Moderna).
