ℹ️ public service announcement ℹ️

I have decided to split my account into two accounts. In this way I do not clutter timelines of people who are not interested in my IT related posts (self-hosting, homelab, general IT stuff).

In case you follow me because of these, I now will use my account on my single user instance for that:

@spiezmaestro

See you there?

@bergmeister @spiezmaestro yes a bit of a pity we can't have followable topics under the same account like G+, Telegram, etc had/have. Just gave so much more focus.

@danie10 I use the multi-column web UI the most and there I was able to pretty much separate the different topics (especially with the new option in 4.2 that you can tell certain lists not to be part of your main timeline), it felt cleaner to me to split up in different accounts. I tried adding the hashtag #itstuff so people could filter my IT related posts out, but that only works for own posts, not for boosts.

I do not know how G+, Telegram handles/handled that, but the concept of to be better able to separate topics sounds nice though.
