I was at peace with using WordPress.com for more than a year now after always self-hosting WordPress. I am finally fed up with WordPress.com.

Any Linux users who will like to test a Micro.blog client? The focus of the app is on writing and posting.

(I can share with you the repo with a Flatkpak download file.)

I have the test alerts off and yet I got this. But this is still the first one of the year. Last year’s testing was pretty intensive to say the least.

I like to forget about bugs, but bugs do not let me forget about them.

One-third of the year has gone by. The only thing I wish I did more: watch less news.

I did a big cleanup of my bookshelves and book storage, as well as the various handmade and handwritten gifts I have received over the past few years. So many memories and so many unread books.

Testing something I built for Linux operating systems to post on Micro.blog. Thank you @vincent for the new API documentation you have created. Drafts are working. Will this get posted? Let us see!

“We always said “Writing code is easy, reading code is hard”, we made the easy (and fun) part easier, and the hard part harder… good job.” ~ gambuzzi in YouTube comments.

Diesel for the boats ~ somehow I did not expect this to be the way it was.

“The Blurt theme is not currently available for download."

With how many .wordpress.com subdomains have been used over the last two decades, I do not even want to try and block a new one with a great name to try this.

This unplanned F1 break has been too long. And it will be another 3 weeks after Miami this weekend. smh.

I have been working on developing a platform that is ready enough to go live tomorrow if needed. However, I am currently struggling to convince myself that I am truly willing to put in the effort required to launch it and sustain it over time. I am not sure if there is a real demand for it. It solves a personal problem, and it might help others if they want it. But I am uncertain whether this is something people genuinely need or desire.

My previous organisation never bothered hiring anyone for my role, and now 4 months later they want me to help with the same transition they gave up on when I was still there.
