there's really no good way of saying 'actually, i'm kind of a big deal on a federated social network'
People of the fediverse, this is the best #Markdown editor for Android: iA Writer: https://ia.net/writer You're welcome!

@ale baaaasically. The issue here is "easy to verify RL identity" which causes stupid things like demanding telecom subjugation, Facebook accounts (really?), credit cards and in some cases - government papers.
Of these only the last 2 are close to being trustworthy as identity verification and RL association, but "phone numbers are easy" so.
We need a new approach that's designed for this purpose, and preferably non commercial.
They don't even use a mobile phone. 😐
I just remembered that I should be angry because it's late 2018 and I'm still not able to #chat with my parents because they don't have a smartphone and there's no decent chat software that works without one.
I've not used the new gesture based navigation in #android yet, but this reads bad:

The podcast also deals with the internet archive / wayback machine. Scary stuff, somehow. 🤔
Possible reasons for deleting your #twitter history: You get harassed, you don't want your opinions out there (any more), you want to present yourself for HR
I wonder why #twitter has become a platform to distribute press statements.
☝️ This could be help me getting rid of my laptop. If I really need something on-the-go, I put it on a USB stick and can access it via tablet. Awesome!
☝️ However, mounting the #VeraCrypt container is not possible with EDS lite, only access through the app.
Since I switched to #Zotero reference manager some days ago, reading and learning is so much fun!

So if you ever feel bad about a programming task taking longer than imagined, just remember that I spent an hour yesterday getting increasingly frustrated while trying to add a simple key handler to an app because I thought I was programming in Vala instead of JavaScript.
Also, don’t code when tired.
I want Tusky for Windows! This app is so much better than the mastodon web UI. #tusky
I still can't decide if I need a laptop or desktop PC.
What, no #gnumeric on Windows? I guess I'll stay with #OpenOffice then...
