We have 250 Patrons supporting this server – my profound thanks to you all. ✊

As we head into Meta launching an ActivityPub service & Twitter continues to spiral down, I wanted to do another drive for those of our 10,600 community who can give but have not yet.

Even at the $1 dollar a month "keep the lights on" level. 💵

We are doing fine at our current level of support & traffic, but I do want to build out what is to come.
Every bit helps!

Last night I got to introduce Mai to #Jamulus, one of the singers I work with for the first time. She wants to rehearse with me but lives far away, and we found that for some reason, Jamulus’s latency is lower than SonoBus so we’re going to use that for the time being. Anyway, after a test run, I said ‘come meet all the mad people I jam with on a regular basis’ and this was the last jam of the evening for her, after about an hour of hanging out. It’s ridiculous and we call it:
Good night, see you later.

influencer voice what’s up guys, it’s [famous tech reviewer], today we’re looking at [some shit that’s gonna turn into ewaste in two years]. i’m so excited, it’s 8% faster than [last year’s version of the same exact shit].

we’re gonna be comparing it against [three other versions of the same shit from different manufactures] — not to get ahead of ourselves, but it really packs a punch for its price (conspicuously doesn’t mention that the price is what it is because of slavery and worker exploitation)

but before we get into that, a word from our sponsor, [some fucking bullshit vpn company that you’re going to let slurp up your data because i told you they’re good for your privacy and you have a parasocial relationship with me that turns off your critical thinking skills]
