For my friends and fellow nutmeggers from #Connecticut -- as promised, I've finally set up https://nutmeg.social ! Registration is on an approval-only basis for now while I kick the tires but feel free to create an account and I'll be letting folks in.

Of course anyone is welcome, especially those around #NewEngland 😄

I'll be migrating this account over shortly, see you there!

@heurism unfortunately yes. A lot of my Android friends recommend Megalodon https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.joinmastodon.android.sk&hl=en&gl=US though

Mastodon for Android but it's pink and has more features

Finally expecting some snow in #Connecticut this weekend, hopefully a preview of things to come! Apparently we’re expecting lots of snowfall once winter officially starts https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/new-england-2022-winter-accuweather-17486741.php

Can’t wait for snowmen, snowball fights, and hot cocoa with my daughter—some of the best childhood memories you can make ☃️

Have to hand it to the folks at @tapbots, in the first few minutes of using @ivory it’s already my favorite Mastodon client. Once push notifications are added I can ditch the other apps I’m using!

@Boxerdog73 @annewennerstrand still looking to make this happen for a Connecticut instance but life got in the way a little bit 😔 I want to do it right though — including a backup admin and moderators in case I’m unavailable!

@simplefinances it’s a decent strategy—as weird as stores buying banks seemed at first, it’s not really that different from store credit cards. And if anything, it’s a lot stickier—I can choose to ignore my Best Buy card after I pay off that new TV, but it’s a lot harder to ignore Walmart if they’re my bank.

@andrew @thevglibrary it is worth it in any size dose! I am not a fan of horror or zombies (nor is my wife), but we both played through parts 1 and 2 and are fans. The story is just phenomenal
