So here’s a thing: my new book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, is available for purchase. https://abookapart.com/products/you-deserve-a-tech-union

I’ll have more to say about it soon, but for now I’ll say this:

I wrote this little book for you, for me, for all of us. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever written, and I’m really very proud of it. And I hope it’s helpful to you.

[Edited to add: my book’s now available for order!]

Amazing: the whole process was smooth and easy. There are some limitations, of course: you need to manually select which pictures to import, and there's a top limit of 1000 images - but a couple of hours later, I had just over 750 IG posts from between 2013 and 2023 up on my pixelfed account:

Magic! So thank you, @pixelfed, for doing the hard work and making life so easy for us. Also, thanks to @NGIZero for funding the development of this.
