In case you didn’t know about it, @transrights.northsky.social will also be Canadian driven, but compatible with bsky. They’re still in beta, but I think they prioritise LGBTQ accounts for early access.

If Hey is right for you, then good luck.

Yeah, there are clients you can download and run locally to do it, but I am looking for something reliable that is running automatically.

The only bad point is that I am still missing what I consider to be the key feature before I genuinely move to AT Proto, which is self-deleting posts and comments. For me, it's still one of the key features of Mastodon, and why I think it's still the better service.

I am now on @eurosky.social. I'm not going to lie, I thought they'd have their own UI, but it still just uses the same apps, including the bsky.app webapp. That's good, and bad. Good in that the experience is basically seamless, except I now know my data is on EU servers.

the fact it only supports 5 ongoing migrations is a bit of a limiting factor though. I tried for hours before I got through.

Speaking for Canadians, well done to the women’s hockey team. They showed their mettle, and proved themselves on the ice AND AFTER IT.

I’m not bothered they played good hockey. Well done.

I’m bothered by the colossal assholes they immediately became afterwards.

I'm less annoyed at boop, and more at his swear-laden tirade at the Swedish player as he denies it happened at all.

"Sorry, I didn't realise I did that, I'll avoid it in the future", and there would have been no news at all.

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."

That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

Not sure if this will land for you, but consider making descriptive writeups for the game unlocked as a form of advertising, and actual beta/playtest resources patreon locked. Let supporters participate, let everyone learn.

I love everything about DS except one thing, and unfortunately it's a biggie. I don't like grid based RPGs where I am pushing minis around. I grew up playing D&D in theatre of the mind, and I want to get back to that. DS is still a great game, perfect for some, but not me. I'd play it, but not DM

Please add support for the WhatsApp web app. DeepL has it, I’d find it super useful.

That’s a bit rich coming from someone who just partnered with Spotify

@eurosky.social Here is a simple question. The main thing I want from Blue Sky is auto-delating posts. There is simply nothing I want to say on social that needs to last longer than maybe 2 weeks. It's the reason I use Mastodon mostly.

Will Eurosky consider that feature?

How do we pre register?

And then applauded. I found that to be even more shocking. They didn't just shoot him, they celebrated it.

Are you calling out my knees? What did they do to deserve this attention?

I think people think it’s daunting, asking them to post paragraphs of description, when β€œa cat playing a piano” (or whatever) can be enough.

She treats it like a beanie bag. How many stripper poles do you see people curling up on with a book.

@jessiegender.bsky.social In your episode 2 review of Academy, you referred to the Betazoid ambassador as mute. After 4 years of ASL studies and socialising with the Deaf community, I can say that using "mute" for the Deaf is a very sore point. They can talk, just not vocally (at least not all).

The Alex O'Connor surrounded video is honestly a good watch too. Most of the rest are trainwrecks.

I watch it every Christmas. I think it's genuinely one of the best animated films ever made.

For when you get back, puffed up pigeons keeping warm on a sunny, but chilly Christmas Day.
