@Speedtest @BNetzA @netblocks @ooni interestingly, now it reports back the correct, abeit still horrendous latency back after I complained in public.

not shure if @quad9dns had downtime or someone fucked around with my traffic tho...

Either @quad9dns 's 9.9.9.9 & 9.9.9.11 are down or my #ISP (#Vodafone #Germany) is fucking around with my traffic to hide their #downtime...

Given that their own shitty speedtest doesn't load and @Speedtest / speedtest-cli is unable to connect to any testing servers, I'd assume they fuck with my #traffic.

I hope @BNetzA, @netblocks, @ooni et. al. take notes, cuz my patience runs thin...

In case anyone wounders: isup is just a ,bash_aliases entry to shorten ping -a -b -c 1 -D ...

Und ja, ich werd' solange #Vodafone aufn Sack gehen bis die die shice in Ordnung bringen!

Weil so wie's grade läuft ist das #Interwebz fast komplett unbenutzbar...

Das war unter #Unitymedia nicht so, @BNetzA @Bundesregierung @BMWK / #Bundeskartellamt!

As you might have guessed by now, all this is to say: I'm writing on #bearblog now and I intend to post regularly on there (at least until the spirit of consistency graces my mind-cavern with the persistence of her visits).

And even if I end up breaking off again, when I return to #blogging I will return on there. One way or another, it will be where my words find home on the #interwebz

Fear of the personal

This sounds silly from someone having a personal blog, but I’m sometimes having a hard time writing personal things on my blog. How ironic, right? I think this fear stems from having written a mountain of incredibly cringey personal things in the first incarnations of my blog, having made very complicated social experiences in the past, and to some degree, from where I’m from.

I used to […]

Fear of the personal

This sounds silly from someone having a personal blog, but I'm sometimes having a hard time writing personal things on my blog. How ironic, right? I think this fear stems from having written a mountain of incredibly cringey personal things in the first incarnations of my blog, having made very complicated social experiences in the past, and to some degree, from where I'm from. I used to write literally just what I was thinking in my blog between 2005 and 2008 (and also before that, but on a web 1.0 website rather than a blog). This was a completely disorganized [...]

Quitting social media (mostly)

About a month ago, I stopped using almost all of my social media (with the exception of Instagram). It’s been an interesting month and I still have mixed feelings about it.

I’ve been using Twitter since around 2008, so I’ve been there since its early days. I stopped using Twitter actively a little bit before it was acquired by the Muskrat, and once that happened, I deactivated my account […]

About a month ago, I stopped using almost all of my social media (with the exception of Instagram). It's been an interesting month and I still have mixed feelings about it. I've been using Twitter since around 2008, so I've been there since its early days. I stopped using Twitter actively a little bit before it was acquired by the Muskrat, and once that happened, I deactivated my account there and moved first to Mastodon, and later also to Bluesky. I have not particularly enjoyed Twitter for a long, long time even before it went to shit. Twitter (and its [...]
