Ah, so the last thing I used Twitter for is now gone too. Used the search (without Twitter account) for browsing comments on some local Finnish news. So be it. The end.
Singapore pooltime! 😍🇸🇬 It’s been 4 years since our last visit. Awesome to be back! 😊 Next up, Bali 🌴

Not sure if the micro.blog landing page has looked the way it does for a long time, but I really like it! Love the clean look and the way it highlights the best parts of using the platform. Great work @manton et al. 👏👏
Still wrapping my head around the “best practice” on how to use my main Mastodon account and this blog’s “account” (@juha@juhaliikala.com) side by side. For now, I think I’ll just boost posts that I’d also like to share via my main account and keep my fingers crossed that the possible comments on the (boosted) post appear hear on this blog (and micro.blog) too. I guess that’s one way to go about it? :)
Posting a few nice shots from Lofoten (Norway) road trip (few years ago) to check if micro.blog CDN settings have taken effect 😄🤞🗺️
Aiempaan viestiin liittyen, omalta micro.blog seurantalistalta löytyi ainoastaan @tkoola Suomesta. Ehkäpä meitä muitakin löytyy micro.blogista? Oli miten oli, ajatus olisi välillä jakaa täällä jotain suomeksikin, tai viritellä cross-postausta micro.blogista esim. Mastodonin tai Linkkarin puolelle, kun tulee jotain erityisesti suomeksi jaettavaa. Kassotaan!
Does anyone run their micro.blog in some other language than English? I’m considering creating another micro.blog which I’d use for Finnish content specifically. There are cases where blogging in my native language would make sense (and sharing those post to social channels which I use in Finnish). Would be cool to hear some experiences if some of you’ve done something similar! :)
Winter roadtrip to Iso-Syöte (Finland) 😍🗺️
For many years, it has been my December activity to go through those web/social media accounts that I don’t really use much and “cut out the fat”. It’s always a surprise to realize how many new places I’ve made accounts during the past year (as I like to test new shiny things 😄).
This year, I’d especially like to get the number of my social media accounts as low as possible. Ideally, I would just like to be “present” on my own website/blog and cut out all the rest. I feel that’s not yet entirely viable option, although the #ActivityPub “movement” sure has helped get the ball rolling in that direction.
Let’s see! At least, there’s this one “bird account” that I very much think will get flushed by the end of year for me. Probably few others too. Anyone else who’s doing a similar “cleanup” this year?
As micro.blog supports crossposting stuff from here to Mastodon, let’s try that too! Curious to learn how I’ll end up using these two side by side. I guess time and (perhaps) trial and error will tell 😅
Is this thing on? I guess so 😄 In addition to micro.blog(ging), I’m now also exploring what Mastodon is all about @juhaliikala@masto.io. Come say hi! 😊👋
So, I did went the route of deactivating my Twitter account a week ago, but following this good advice from @thedragstate@aus.social, decided to reactivate and just lock it. Let it rot. In the meanwhile, I guess I’ll find a Mastodon instance next OR create my own. Let’s see :)
Yeah, it’s time. Gone fishing is now in effect. Been mulling over the though way before the “latest developments”, but as the feeling has only grown stronger since, it is time. Let’s reconsider at some point, maybe.
Monochrome Monday shot from Times Square, New York. Would love to revisit! 📸🙌🗺️
Ah, first snow is here! 😊❄️❄️❄️
Rather nice, this one! Few episodes were a bit too strange to my taste, but overall, an enjoyable watch. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #series #horror #mystery #netflix
I guess that A Day in the Life challenge already passed, but will post nonetheless 😄 Gym time in Oulu, Finland, 14:20pm. Sweaty business! 😅
I find that micro.blog has the same kind of good vibe Twitter used to have in the early days. Browsing and reading other people’s updates here leave me feeling good. The opposite is true with my Twitter feed, which has turned into (mostly) doom and gloom, people arguing about stupid smallest things and all that. I’ll be spending much more time here than on Twitter in the future, that’s for sure! :)
One thing I’ve wondered lately when discovering new users here, how many active users are there on micro.blog? Just a curiosity, if it’s not a big secret @manton? 😄
Hi @jeffmueller! Is ADN finder still a thing? I was trying to add myself to that list, but I don’t think it worked out. Or is there a manual process involved after submitting? 😊 Cheers!
Where did that weekend go? 😄 Well, coffee to the engine and toward this weeks adventures! Started exploring ConvertKit on Saturday. Thinking of starting a newsletter, in addition to these somewhat random micro blog writings. Let’s see!
