The heat is making me just want to play games the rest of the day instead of working. 🫠 Let me just live through Roots of Pacha with my boyfriend!! I wanna just ride my guanaco in the game and explore the world there 😤 🎮

oh right, my boyfriend is currently in the EU and therefore will not have access to Threads (at least until he goes home to the PH) 🫠

sigh… I guess there’s that. 🥲

I need to remind myself that I don’t always have to have the final word in things. 😆 Personally I wish I could give acknowledgement to someone that I’ve read their messages.

I guess the setup/culture (?) of micro.blog assumes that for you already. Gonna take some getting used to.

Initial impression of Threads:

• it’s nice that the point of entry for my non-techie friends is easier
• the IG follows integration is good (assuming you’ve only followed people/entities you want to see)
• it has the same chaos as Twitter in the 2010s (?)
• definitely still in Beta lol

Alright, I’m also on Threads now lol

If you’re also trying that out, let’s see each other there as well! ✨ www.threads.net/@_chiawas… ✨

(I’m still mildly annoyed I can’t claim the “chiawase” handle on IG because someone beat me to it but oh well 🫠)

I can technically swear here (on micro.blog), right? I don’t know why I felt conscious of saying stuff like “shit” or “fuck” here 😆 I guess, trying to keep things clean for formalities' sake hahaha

but eh, words are words ?? :)))

wow at this point, I might make a list of the (micro?)blogs or sites I find super cool 😆 I’ve already discovered 2 setups that I super resonate with and want to emulate with my own. I just need the time.

Set aside timeeee @ self!!

OK, re-reposting the first archived blog post seemed to work well. The links have definitely been broken though lol but I guess that’s also on me for constantly changing website setups for the past few years 😅

I have some thoughts, but I’ll reserve them until later. 😆

I just remembered that I did have some blog posts posted back in 2021 that I could migrate here. Please excuse me as I share some old content. 😆

Will just append when it was originally posted hahaha

I like that you can only edit replies in micro.blog after 24 hours. That makes the most sense for me in the conversation context. If you did want to correct yourself, then you could append it with another reply. But it wouldn’t erase what you said initially.

Alt text question for iOS / mobile micro.blog posters: other than the website, are there other apps that allow you to add alt text before you (cross)post an image? I tested it a bit with the micro.blog iOS app and @gluon, but both don’t seem to let me add them when I tap the image; instead, it removes (?) the image I just uploaded or asks if I want to make the image inline my post instead 😅

Finally got my public Twitter archive. Not sure what actual benefit that’ll be for others to see my old tweets, but I guess there is merit to look through what I’ve posted and shared in the past?

The account was started around the time I started working. 7 years of my life. 😆

look at this: www.thingiverse.com/thing:138…

it’s so CUTE 😤 😻

I apologize if I’m really noisy now, posting so many random thoughts 🙈 I feel very empowered with the apps I’m using now to just share thoughts online 😆

It feels refreshing to feel like I’m living again. ☺️

I have my eyes on a specific trifold folding bike… but I need to sell my current duofold Bickerton folding bike first. 😆 As a fellow cyclist friend said, “unload to reload” hahaha

I’ve had my foldie for around a year now, I think. This should be fine 😁

The posting pipeline for me now is:

• post something on micro.blog
• check on Mastodon and BlueSky for any neat mentions (if it’s a short post)
• scroll thru both feeds whil I’m there

let’s go lmao

I wonder if there’s also a concept of “threads” here once you’ve posted one thing?

Should I just use the reply functionality like how I would in other “microblogging” places like Twitter and Mastodon?

This would be different from making an actual long post 😅
