#Linux #Mushrooms #Maritime #Wonder

Hello,
I'm an amateur Linux fan boy and seasonal forager. I'm a professional merchant mariner and a full time wonderer (physically/mentally/spiritually).

I love being immersed in a good book but rarely find the time to read. I sometimes play computer games and I enjoy almost all forms of music (really, there's very little music I can't find some level of appreciation for, test me).

I am English residing in Finland.

I strive toward #LifeLongLearning

Automattic is one of the most important companies on the Internet.

They make Tumblr, WooCommerce, Akismet, LongReads, WordPress—among others.

WordPress alone powers ~44% of the world's websites.

More interesting: despite being such a large, dominant company, few people hate Automattic.

Why is this? 🧵

At what point do I acknowledge that I have a penguin addiction? 🤣

This holiday season Twitter fires 4K workers, Amazon fires 10K workers, & Facebook fires 11K workers—all while US Billionaire pandemic wealth increased an absurd $1.7T.😳

A reminder that billionaires don’t create jobs—they exploit workers. Tax billionaires. Unionize workers.

A successful trip to the forest.
With a MISTical view.

A lot of people are moving to @Mastodon, but I also get a lot of misconceptions and questions about how it works, and about this cool giant social network that is the #Fediverse, including @pixelfed or @peertube. So, to answer all these questions, and myabe introduce you to some other parts of the Fediverse, I think it's time for a quickstart guide!

Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed: easily replace Twitter, Instagram and YouTube

Hello world, I have noticed that eye contact falls under some sort of trigger warning... please forgive my ignorance but can anyone educate me on why that's a thing?
