Dear #fediverse, I am preparing to migrate my account off of mastodon.social and onto mastodon.technology. Here's the new me: @[email protected]

It's been a long time coming and I should have done that a while ago - keeping fedi healthy means moving away from huge instances.

Admittedly m.t is also substantial, but it's an order of magnitude smaller than m.s. So, there's that.

At some point this account will be made to redirect to the m.t one, and then eventually the profile will move. 

hello!

i need $80 for medical weed, $50 for groceries, and $25 for a haircut ($155 total)

i didn't get the 2nd and 3rd stimulus checks because my abusive parents claimed me as a dependent to steal them. i tried doing my taxes but that got rejected, so i need to call the IRS when i have the energy and stamina

i've been trying to do freelance video editing and/or find a job as a video editor, i can't work anywhere facing the public because i have asthma and catching covid is a major health risk for me

Fact-check: do NFTs make it possible to own digital artwork?
https://tecc.media/claim-nfts-make-it-possible-to-own-digital-artwork/

> Non-fungible tokens are an interesting technology that can be used by digital artists to create new revenue streams. But claiming that they let anyone actually own digital artworks is at best naïveté or disingenuous hype (and we’d rather not consider the worst).

> “For me it seems as ridiculous as street-art museums,” says digital artist Natalia Vish.

New fact-check: did Fastly break the internet?
https://tecc.media/claim-fastly-broke-the-internet/

> In short, enough websites stopped working for long enough, that from the perspective of a regular user the Internet was, in a very real sense of the word, “broken.”

(...)

> So, did Fastly break the Internet? Not single-handedly, no. But it is probably reasonable to say they knowingly benefited from (and promoted) industry practices that led to centralization and introduction of single points of failure.

it's very nice that migrating yunohost from one server to another consists of
