This @CandidContribs podcast mentioned the #UmbracoCommunity #Mastodon but made some comments I think may have been misleading, so I thought I'd clarify.

Candid Contribs talks Mastodon: Some corrections and notes

The Candid Contributions Podcast episode "Toots, Tweets and Time Management" mentioned the Umbraco Community Mastodon but made some comments I think may have been misleading, so I thought I'd clarify.

#CandidContributions have a new episode out! We chat about being at (and speaking at) the recent #UmbracoSpark Innovation conference. Not often all four of us are in the same place โšก

Spark your enthusiasm! Speaking and attending an in-person Umbraco innovation conference

In this episode we chat about the recent Umbraco Spark Innovation Conference that we all attended in person in Bristol. Plot-spoil: it was awesome! Carole, Laura and Lotte were on the speakers list so we discuss the talks they gave, everyone's highlights from the day, and just how good it is to be with other Umbracians again.

@lottepitcher As if @emaburst wouldn't want to be in a group with you! #VivaForever #CandidContributions

I love being a co-host of the #CandidContributions podcast: we talk #OpenSource, #Umbraco and being part of a #Tech community.

Our first episode of 2023 is now out. Listen to hear us talk about respecting our energy limits and the year ahead. We also chat with Allen Smith about Umbraco, developer relations, GitHub, forensic IT and what not to name your record label...

S4 Ep1: Authentic Boundaries

We take a look back at the best of 2022 (spoiler alert, July was THE month for us) and look forward to 2023. We discuss how we plan to spend our energy and how to do so without draining our reserves. Which conferences will we get to this year and what exactly is an 'authentic boundary?' We are also joined by Allen Smith, the newest addition to the Developer Relations team at Umbraco. We talk about his experiences at GitHub, how he defines developer relations, what he's looking forward to in the year ahead

@leekelleher @CRL excellent question! I vote #CandidContributions. Think we were only CandidContribs over on the bird site due to the max allowed lengths of handles

@lottepitcher @CRL

So will the hashtag be #candidcontribs or the full #CandidContributions?

(Also, I'm first to use it! ๐Ÿ˜†)
