Why in the wide world of sports would somebody liberally apply perfume/cologne before going to the gym. 😖

So apparently removing the ability to download your tweets in a CSV file is one of the new Twitter "improvements".

Apparently they don't want people mass-deleting their Twitter history.

I do have backups of my tokens, but I don't have a spare device where I can restore the backup. Thankfully, my new phone arrives today, and most of my key services are protected by a YubiKey, so I'm not entirely blocked.

Sigh. That moment when you bust your phone, and then realize everything using 2FA is now inaccessible.

@brandon That there would be a lot less noise, and more signal. That people who disagree could have a meaningful debate about their differences without the screaming and ad hominem.

@cnkraeh That could be. I guess I need to give it some more time and see if things improve.

@brandon Yeah, I think I'm going to wait and see how this current mess plays out. Maybe my expectations when joining were unrealistic too.

Maybe I picked a bad time to join Mastodon, but so far it seems like it's as bad or worse than Twitter.

@mike Yes, I switched back to paper and pen last fall, and I've seen a big improvement in how well I remember things. I still transfer my notes into the computer for future reference, but I always start with paper.

Sigh. Convinced I should ignore any new AWS features for 1-2 years after launch to give them time to add the features that should have been included at launch. #aws

Finally broke down and installed F-Droid on my phone. Now to try and find the apps I already use in their repository. #fdroid
