Testing a quote post of a post written on Micro.blog.

A few days ago at Salt Point. After camping, detoured into San Francisco for a day of being a city tourist with reliable wi-fi.
@maique @[email protected] Yep, fixing a longstanding issue with threading Mastodon replies to Micro.blog in some cases.
Finished reading: Termination Shock by Neal Stephenson. Love the premise, characters, and strong first half, then I started to wonder if Stephenson had lost the plot… but it comes together and he sticks the landing. 📚 https://micro.blog/books/9780063028074

This app is written in React Native, which uses JavaScript with native system controls. Apple is burning through developer trust with the App Store. This is now mainstream opinion, not just a fringe of developers complaining.

Rolling out a fix for cross-posting in Micro.blog, which broke when we optimized publishing performance this week. Apologies for the glitch.
@GR36 Just noticed this reply over on Mastodon, so figured I might as well reply here too… I happened to roll out an improvement today to hosted photos. This shouldn't happen anymore.
IndieWeb Meetup this week in Austin! Wednesday at Mozart’s Coffee, 6:30pm. Stop by to chat about the open web and the upcoming IndieWebCamp. ☕
Day 2 of Catalina, now hitting more issues with full disk access and Ruby-related commands. Using rbenv and starting to wonder if I need to throw everything out and re-install to make Catalina happy. I’ve added all the obvious paths to System Prefs.
