There's still a really long way to go to baby goat time on my farm (about 6 weeks until the first due dates). But the world (and me) needs some cute baby goat pictures right now, so please enjoy this ridiculously cute picture from last year.

A continued reminder that blocking referrers on Mastodon means that nobody can measure how many visits they're getting from the platform, so publishers don't know how much to invest in it (and therefore don't). It's such an own goal for the platform.

When it comes to trump, the wronger I am the better. I really hope he won't be as bad as people say. I need to be realistic about it though.

With the latest update to #Mastodon's web app, we show you a little reminder when you're about to post a picture without adding alt text. Alt text is crucial for accessibility, but has other perks too, such as making it much easier to search for your post—or […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

About the whole #nodeinfo #GTS brouhaha, I want to point out that an #API is meant to be machine-readable. What's the point of providing a machine-readable endpoint and then blocking machines via robots.txt?
