I think you did well. It's hard to deal with this in the workplace. My $workplace hands out licences like candy and a lot of people are drinking the Kool Aid.

Going to have a look, I recently started using OpenBSD (7.9) on a tiny desktop as a main general purpose desktop. Learning about unveil etc. since I couldn't upload images from within Firefox XD
I noticed you're combining Apple hardware and OpenBSD. Any chance you're using OpenBSD on an MBA M1?
@stefano@littleone.littlefedi.social TL;DR: THANK YOU!!
I would like to compliment and thank you and the team for everything that is littleFedi, especially the extensive documentation and presentation of littleFedi (website, branding, getting-it-out-there). You have opened the fediverse to many more enthousiasts because of the simplicity of littleFedi.
And simplicity is good! Less is more is really true when it comes to stuff like this. I have seen Mastodon instances (understandably, but sadly) shut down due to the high maintenance. My best friend is maintaining a private instance, which frees me from worrying about release notes etc. But littleFedi feels more like the old BBS days, tinkering with stuff and interacting with people!
I was really amazed by the extensive documentation upon release and you have done an amazing job! You should be proud of your achievements, including but not limited to bsd.cafe, illumos.cafe, fedimeteo. The Little Computer People should be proud about their project, it will have a lot of impact.
The world has not been changing for the better on a global scale for a while now; our planet is burning in more ways than I ever could have imagined. 'Small' projects like this are exactly the type of positivity that is needed. At least for me anyway, as I am finally enjoying tech a bit again. Yeah, I might be seeing someone about all of this regularly ;)
Thanks again! I'm off setting up a regular donation as I would like to encourage positive things :)
Edit: typo
Oh my! I was laughing at this longer than I should have and that quote is SO fitting.
Bubble pop and normalization imminent?
🍿😐

Yeah, sometimes technology needs to be punished by not paying attention to it. But we keep coming back, don't we? But a good book... is a good book!
If you like trains and you like Lego®️ (who doesn't?), you probably should go and vote for this set
This is my first blog post
There are many like it, but this one is mine :)
In this case, it was written in Markdown and this is an emoji: 😈
(Just testing #littlefedi 's blog functionality.)
#firstpost on my own new littleFedi instance!
This is truly great stuff to be playing with, love the simple yet versatile angle :)
