The water in your body is just visiting. It was a thunderstorm a week ago. It will be the ocean soon enough. Most of your cells come and go like morning dew. We are more weather pattern than stone monument. Sunlight on mist. Summer lightning. Your choices outweigh your substance.

Please stop using “mom” as an example of an unsophisticated user of technology. This reinforces harmful stereotypes.

Instead, I suggest using “congressperson”.

Anyone posting engagement bait is getting blocked. I’ll be damned if I’m letting my mastodon timeline look like my bird site feed, which is the worst it’s ever been and there’s nothing can be done about it.

Ivory by Tapbots Jan 28, 2023

Hello Friends,

Wanted to make a note that our current roadmap is on our website: https://tapbots.com/ivory/#roadmap

We are a small company of 3 people and only 1 of us replies on this account. Between all the emails and messages here, it's hard to always answer everyone, but we do our best. If your question doesn't get answered here, it's not because we don't care. It's just impossible to always be around to answer everyone. Feel free to send us an email if you don’t get a response here. Thank you! 🙂

Ivory for iOS

A Mastodon app based on the award-winning Twitter app for iOS.

All web developers: I can't speak more highly of the https://polypane.app browser for development. Its' multi-pane and scaled view of multiple screen sizes is a god-send. It's very well thought out and has a mass of features for developers. There's a 14 day free trial if you want to give it a spin. Gamer changer IMHO.
Polypane, The browser for ambitious web developers

A stand-alone browser and devtool with everything you need to build better responsive, accessible and performant web sites and web apps in less time.

@michaelward @phillipp In fairness to them, I’m not sure that any easy-deployment system is going to ge rock solid because they need to cater for a lot of scenarios. I do hope Fly keeps improving because for less critical systems and non-business sites and applications what they want to offer is brilliant.
