wow YT’s reccing my BURNER phone #tech reviews Phil Swift’s commercial fans. I must be a good salesman :D.
Haven’t decided on which ‘just-smart-enough’ phone to push for #digitaldetox in 2023 yet, looking at you @WeAreMudita @Unihertz https://BU.RNER.me
Americans: wanna get as far from #SCOTUS as poss? Consider Tuesday’s virtual presentations from @USUKFulbright & #Fulbright #ExchangeStudent programs more generally.
I’m reading applications 1st time this year!

dropbox.com/shop seems like an easy way to mometise digi assets w/o resorting to burning planet #CryptoGratiaCrypt. @dropbox I’d use if you allow custom-domain (or HTML-embeddable) (#tech)
1 yr in and Truth Social hasn’t expanded outside American iOS users. They really built a digital wall!
Any savvy devs might wanna go snap up one of these domains to reach those users :D (#tech) https://wa.rner.me/2022/01/16/crittlds-trademarkproof-domain.html
While waiting on @protonmail to implement #SimpleLogin integration, #BitWarden have made a big leap on with API-linked username generation.
Main prob: stuck on 8-digit alphanumeric randoms like ‘7d79s6iv at domain dot tld’. Allow customization please !! (#tech)

@CeruleanSounds back on IG, I kid you not, only because I’ve a friend who could internal support ticket at Meta.
@meta: raise your design quality, or don’t try to automate everything. You can’t have it both ways.

\@ummjackson has spot-on view on #CryptoGratiaCrypt.
And Musk should concede that isn’t clued/up on automating scripts. No biggie. We didn’t use “cron” in recent CS Master’s.
Instead he looks like a politician pretending to know the price of bread

Spoke too soon on new #ProtonVisionary support email. 1 wk response and they directed me to Zendesk!!
Will downgrade (#tech) https://wa.rner.me/2022/05/26/proton-rebrand-beastly.html
The fact that it took me the whole the month to find out that Zoom 1:1’s now have 40 minute timeouts, makes me proud of how I mostly use (E2EE) Signal video calls :D (#tech)
Yeah but what Time @LL_Sports_Club?! As you’re not responding email & don’t have phone I’m resorting to
tweeting your negligence. Booking SFN73572772 (#tech)
Introducing the new AirBnb.. for wealthy people!
Course this is Chesky’s favourite category…
I prefered it with air beds

I like this new #Carrd template for mindful #SavvyIndie creatives, as they can describe what’s going on in different social channels, rather than just assuming the ubiquitous little circles speak for themselves (#tech) https://9b5522c771366cb6.demo.carrd.co/
Vimeo continue to show themselves to be an unworthy ethical YT alternative. They’ve gone out of their way to deindex showcase pages to ransom already overpaying PRO members. (#tech)
Alas, after a brave protest, Kremlin-backed Lenta returns to normal business. Which looks like a heady mix of Putin & softporn, esp. when you fully embrace the warm hug of propaganda & opt for “good news only” (#tech) https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/05/09/lenta-ru-briefly-filled-with-anti-war-anti-putin-content

Updated #tutoring webpage https://Lea.rner.me to include group-sessions (revision or summer-school) increasingly leading. Also shout-out facilitator companies like #IB @LanternaEdu, recently acquired @EliteIBTutors whose team > brand-name, so good move (#tech)
\@SignalApp currently run by WhatsApp founder Brian Acton, just regained feature-parity (change number), and has a sustainable non-profit model. Meta clearly worried: 1st US media ads this year (#privacy #tech) https://signal.org/blog/new-year-new-ceo/
\@NetNewsWire custom article themes are dope, and a good template for how companies like Twitter should separate UI-design from data-housing as @BenedictEvans discussed. Though fun to see #SavvyIndie newsletter stylists like Lorde override them (#tech) https://wa.rner.me/2022/04/22/the-future-of.html
