I see a lot of blog evangelism, so I'd thought i'd do one for wikis. If you want to put stuff on the interwebs but find the serialised blog format not really your thing, try a wiki! Basically, each page represents a topic that is gradually added to and edited as you find more things to say, instead of being tied to a specific date.
Personally, probably bc of adhd, dates don't mean much to me, something I haven't touched for 3 years is as relevent as anything else, so I find wikis useful.

If I were to make predictions (foolish!), I would say…
The game will probably soldier on for a significant period of time.
It will probably be in a “zombie” state, not unlike that of Champions Online (as I understand it, I don’t really play that game).
We’re closer to STO’s end than its beginning.
We've been having great conversations at the Ubuntu Summit in The Hague this weekend - it's been fantastic to be with so many other open source projects, like @frameworkcomputer @ubports and of course, @ubuntu !
KDE Gear ☀️ 23.08 🏖️ has got you covered! Do you run your own Mastodon instance? Tokodon lets you post to and manage your instance all from one desktop application. It also helps you share your posts through any other app.
I've seen several posts about Twitter's API changes harming public interest projects and academic research, and I just want to say that instead of appealing to a bigoted billionaire these groups should read the writing on the wall— and move on.
Even *if* Musk makes an exception, the data he'll release will be skewed to serve his purposes. The damage is done. Credibility on that platform is gone. Forever.
