Knocking Out A Race Pace Run With Ryan - Tim Nolte

OK, so I finally got my new Mastodon instance straightened out, upgraded, and seems reliable. I'll be migrating my account here to @tim at some point soon. Vacation tomorrow, and I need to get to bed now for an early morning run, so things may not be final until later this week.

There was some chat the other day about removing jQuery from WordPress plugins.

Much of what jQuery did is now built into "vanilla" JS. AND there are new ways to do what jQuery helped you do.

If you still use jQuery, here's a quick intro to the alternatives:

So I was considering migrating to my own #Mastodon instance, not because I don't want to stay here but for the pure reason of owning my own content. I generally publish content to my blog which is shared here and comments/likes are captured on those posts, however there are a lot of Toots, like this that don't scale well with that setup.

Am I crazy to attempt to use a DO droplet with only 1CPU/1GB RAM? Masto.host is closed currently, but looks like I could go with https://ossrox.org/.

Late Night Saturday Long Run

It didn't work out to get my run in this morning so I headed out tonight, but it sure was a challenge running into some of those 25+ mile/hour wind gusts. #HWI #Run4Water #GroundhogMarathon #Garmin #Running

If you're thinking about leaving Twitter but want to stay in the loop with web dev and other topics, I've got a handy list of awesome people with RSS feeds here:

Many people I interact with have moved over. And *I* am enjoying it.

Should others? Will others?

Not necessarily! Maybe in the future?

Mastodon may not be the answer to Twitter. But the activity there clearly shows that it is *a* place that *some* people wish to gather and interact.

And it’s sending a message: “We don’t like what you are doing!”

Will This Be The New Dawn of Mastodon?

I have been on #Mastodon since 2018 after exploring #POSSE and the #IndieWeb so I'll be curious to see what comes of the seemingly mass exodus of #Twitter users coming into the Mastodon realm. #WordPress #SocialMedia
