I haven't actually looked at mastodon. Lemmy took a whe to figure out initially too, it's probably similar and it just takes a bit of time.

I managed to avoid an actual ban on reddit (probably because i didn't use it much) and only had comments banned with a warning.

In many ways I miss the old 90s newsgroups.

I could say that, but only here. Try to say that on Reddit and they luigi you ๐Ÿคฃ

I feel a bit like I didn't get much done today, but I have made significant progress in de-Goggling my life.

I've also removed Reddit. Again. Apparently it's like cancer. I obviously didn't get rid of it all when I moved over here and it regrew. Now it's been cut out again.

Hopefully with a new influx to Lemmy there will be a bit more engagement here. Although we are all terrible people who "incite violence" so maybe we should just riot instead?

Powder. Liquid degrades faster (especially enzymes) so I can buy a larger container and not have to think about shopping for more for a much longer interval.

Towels. Bath sheets are too big and unweildy and don't fit on the towel rail properly. Or do people who have bath sheets have some sort of plus sized sheet rail instead?

I just saw the word pizza and now dinner plans are confirmed. I don't need to make 300 decisions, just 1 good one.

I have multiple emails I use. Being able to use alias emails will be useful, and I'll also be able to set up email using my own domain name through Proton - which means I can move them ito another company in the future if I decide Proton's not the best option anymore. It also means I can set up lots of emails along the lines of companyname@myname.website, and have a seperate address for each of the major companies I deal with (like banks and insurance companies) to create another difference so that data matching won't expose as much information. I'd looked at doing this using the company that hosts my website, but their interface did not work well for emails and it's not very secure.

Yeah, I've been contemplating it for a while, it's just taken the recent issues in US to give me enough push to actually act.

I just signed up to Proton Mail & am changing over my email, calendar, setting up the VPN and migrating all my stuff to their cloud server. I've only just started the process and I'm exhausted already. I haven't even looked at the password manager yet to decide if I want to change to that or not. But storing my digital life in Switzerland instead of USA seems like a very good idea at the moment.

A tasting platter of gelato please.

Cherry tart update: The tart was transported in the tin, and was also successfully removed and held up well to being sliced. It was very yummy, my sister and I split the leftovers. I just had another piece as a pre-brdtime snack.

Or I could just make another one tomorrow for my belly - I have plenty of cherries!
