Normally I'm not a fan of adding -gate to a word to name a scandal but just this once can we call the birdsite's collapse "elongate"? Please?

Dear twenty-something app developers with perfect eye-sight: Stop putting tiny light grey on dark grey text. Someday you will understand.

Oh wow, I'm very impressed by the quality of the HTMHell advent calendar, but this post from @alvaromontoro about the `rel` attribute hits it out of the park!

Brb to add `rel="tag"` to my site! 🏃‍♂️💨

I'm looking for some "print on demand" services, for cards: I upload my pdf there, they print and ship, people can order the cards.
For the US there is https://www.thegamecrafter.com/ but I am afraid shipping to Europe will be expensive.
Anyone tried a European service they recommend?

Every news outlet should stand up a Mastondon instance for their reporters & staff.

It’ll be great to see [email protected] or whatever domain they want to use.

Built in verification. Every reporter for the Washington Post on a washpo domain. Every reporter for the New York Times on an NYTimes domain. Etc, etc.

Plus the “local” feed for each instance becomes a feed of all the posts from that institution mixed together — providing extra discovery.

Punishable by a fine means legal at a price.

I might grow to enjoy social media again now that I actually see my friends’ posts and they’re not buried below all the rage and anxiety-inducing posts.

If you download your #Twitter archive it arrives wrapped as a static HTML page, which is not very useful for doing anything with, and worse: it requires the original account to be still active to do useful things like enlarge the images since they use t.co links.

So here's a #Python script to convert a Twitter archive to #markdown or other formats: https://github.com/timhutton/twitter-archive-parser

Now you can archive your tweets in any way you want.

If you use a screen reader and are worried about reports that Masto is less accessible than we'd like, try https://pinafore.social/ - it's a webapp with a much more simple interface than Masto itself plus it has thoughtul wellbeing settings too!

I only recently learned about time blindness as an aspect of ADHD, but I really appreciate this illustration:
