@Zergling_man Hey, just a reminder the OpenWeb.social server will be offline after tomorrow! Hope you found another Mastodon instance to transition to :)

Well, it is with a heavy heart that I announce that OpenWeb.social will be shut down on January 1, 2021. Before that happens, I recommend you create a new account on another Mastodon instance. You may be able to migrate your followers over using this tool: https://openweb.social/settings/migration If you have any questions please let me know.

@jaredmoody A PDX instance – nice!

For now I'm just sticking with birdsite. I'm also pretty active on a bunch of Discord and Slack channels, so it's keeping me busy 😊 all the best -J

Folks might like indieweb.social as a instance that travels some of the same open web road...

@jaredmoody It seems like that is a thing…https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/103393780267601137 — not sure if past toots come over too. I'd be surprised if they do… (but like I said I don't intend to shut down the server any time soon)
Jared WhiteJul 6, 2020

Hi folks. I'm sad to say this but I've decided to sunset my account here at OpenWeb.social. I plan to keep the server online for the foreseeable future, but I suggest anyone using this instance investigate switching to a different Mastodon instance. If you have any questions, please send me a DM.

It was a fun experiment and I learned a lot. Thanks for being a part of the #fediverse!

It boggles the mind to remember that only a few short years ago, some people were saying the "World-Wide Web" is dead.

Now the web IS the world. Or least it's very much the opposite of dead, and is presently, as Marc Andreessen put it, "eating the world."

The Web is the Opposite of Dead

It's taken a global pandemic for many of us to realize something profound about the web. It isn't just a technology which helps the world go around. Today, on a certain level, is IS the world.

Hey, it's a new podcast! To echo the words of Morpheus, WE ARE STILL HERE! 💪

If you’ve been wondering how I’ve been fairing as a Dad during this whole shelter-at-home situation…well, the answer may surprise you. (Spoiler alert: legal battles ahead 🥺)

54: Whatever The Hell This Is

Greetings, fellow citizens of the internet refuge from the global pandemic! How are you surviving Crisis? I am, to echo the words of Morpheus, STILL HERE! n this episode I bring you up to speed on what I've been up to…some fun things, some rewarding things, and one terrible, horrible, no good, very bad thing I've been battling with for a couple of months now (predating the coronavirus lockdown!).
