Frustrating!
I am now on Mastodon.IOW.social as
@MammaMu But I'm having tech trouble in connecting and transferring/ merging the accounts. So feel free to add me over there for now, I guess.
OK!
I think I have figured it out.
I have requested my archive data from here, and I have requested to join IOW.
Watch this space, I guess!
Going for a shower now, and then I will try to do some useful offline activites!
Catch you later! :D
@stublad Thank you! Yeah, I'm not in a position to pay anything like that regularly, but I had thought of trying a month just to see what's available. It's a pity it's so pricy. A genealogist on Twitter kindly did a free look at my mum's father's family tree, I was looking for a Jewish connection, but instead he found an ArchDeacon and Archbishop of Canterbury! lol It really is fascinating!
Can anybody tell me about the IOW (Isle of Wight) instance?
It's a place in the UK that I absolutely love in real life!
I hope that it is also cool and safe and fun.
Hmm, how do you download your data or whatever, when you're changing to another instance?
@stublad I would love to trace my genealogy but it seems to be quite an expensive hobby, potentially!
Thank you for the follow!
I will never understand why people are so averse to diversity.
I like seeing trans people speaking to each other with idioms I don't get, cute girls speaking a language I can't recognize, or gay dudes priming and posing in random pics.
Seeing shit that is not for me makes me feel like I'm part of a much bigger world that still has space for me to learn and grow.
That's a big place of comfort for me. The bottomless nature of the human experience means we all have space to be fully who we are.
That's pretty cool.
@TartanLlama It's not playing for me at all.
It's incredibly dark and grey and miserable here today. Rain expected!
