Faffing around with the Test2::Suite #SoftwareTesting framework (successor to Test::More) that’s been included in #Perl v5.40 for almost a year (https://perldoc.perl.org/Test2::Suite), plus DBD::Mock (https://metacpan.org/pod/DBD::Mock) and Dario Roa’s #Codye code screenshot tool (https://darioroa.com/codye/)
The latter is good for embedding code snippets to #SocialMedia and #microblogs like #Mastodon.
They don’t *have* to be as decorative like the attached example, of course…
@linuxiac RSS has been in decline for the last few years. I would even say that RSS has been in decline for the last decade. RSS is slowly being replaced with microblogs.
Twitter alternative Post News is shutting down: The publisher-focused platform is going away after less than two years. 📉🤔

Compatibility and federation be damned, I just want the canonical page containing my post to look how I want it to. 
I don't care about people talking behind my back, they aren't worth engaging anyway. 
The #fediverse (this includes #Misskey, #Pleroma, #Peertube and yes, even #Mastodon) desperately needs a feature where either a poster can disable #comments for their post, or a feature that says you can only comment on the first post in a thread and not allow people to jump-in in the middle. I know it's impossible to do, and that it would effectively break social networking in general but holy fucking shit! I'm in a #thread with the amazing @[email protected] and the behavior of someone just chiming in and #mansplaining something they clearly don't have all the facts about is incredible. I can only imagine the volume of this happening to every woman on the Fediverse, and dare I say I've probably been guilty of the same behavior myself. But the #trolling and even #sealioning is ... just wow. I don't have any words. So yeah, I think there definitely needs to be a change to the #ActivityPub specification where a poster can say, "No comments are allowed for this post". Still doesn't stop somebody from quoting the post and adding their comments, and honestly I think that's fine.
The @pixelfed profile of my old, little (but pretty inactive) #musicblog @ExUndHop does now have the #portfolio functionality enabled.

(So at least there will be some #photos and #microblogs of #concerts every little now and then)

ActivityPub is a standard that allows different web applications to interact so that users can pool their information & collaborate across instances (websites, applications), even ones running different software.
The ActivityPub protocol is already implemented in a significant range of projects, including microblogging platforms like Mastodon ...
One should always note that the above picture is a design choice by the FediVerse Server developers. It could be different. So stating there is one true picture can be confusing.
A good analogy might be clothing. There is nothing stopping you wearing sweats to a black tie event, it just might be suboptimal. Similarly, with FediVerse software, they all work together, but some combinations might be suboptimal.
