Last night I demoted my Fosstodon admin account, then flipped the switch and migrated to Micro.blog. Here's some thoughts on why I did that.

There are few things more enjoyable than the first coffee of the day. ☕
Today's #Wristcheck is the Spinnaker Spence
End of an era. 🙁
There are definitely worse places to spend your lunch.
The fact that there is no discover emoji on Micro.blog for technology is very disappointing. 😟 It seems like such an obvious one to include. 💻️
Today's #Wristcheck is the G-SHOCK GA-2100BWP
Beautiful moth I just found on the wall. Never seen one this colour before.
Today's #Wristcheck is the Seiko SRPD71K1
I hate getting new prescription glasses - it always takes me a few days of wearing them for my eyes to adjust to being able to see properly again. 🤓
Today's #Wristcheck is the Casio F-94W
Most of the time it's motorbikes up on my lift, but every now and then weird stuff make their way on there too, like this 60 year old soil tiller...
Traffic is awful round here.
So I recently took my #Motorbike in for it's first service and while there, they gave me this absolute BEAST to take out for a few hours.
Very similar to my bike except it's 200bhp instead of 170bhp. Beautiful machine.
Today's #Wristcheck is the Selten Salvage Bronze
Today's #Wristcheck is the Casio CA-53W
Today's #Wristcheck is the Baltany S182025B
I need to get out with the dogs before the temperature rises from "the surface of mercury" to "the surface oft he sun".
The furballs can't handle the heat.
So I've been running #Ubuntu for the last couple days and I have to say, it's been great. Very stable and no real issues to talk of. Snaps are still a bit shit, but a couple of commands later and I have Flatpak support.
Question - does Ubuntu shit the bed entirely if you remove Snaps all together?
Lots of people have been asking myself and Mike for a statement on the recent drama surrounding Fosstodon. This is **MY** statement.
