I've just published an article which is meant to be a quick guide for Mastodon newcomers. I think it might be quite helpful:

Hello #fediverse! this is my RE #introduction

I'm a #motion #designer based in #London #UK. I'm also a #guitar player with a somewhat eclectic taste in #music : from #progressive #metal to #jazz to #psychedelic #rock and so on.

I'm also into #gaming , #boardgames and #videogames.

I'm aware of the importance of online #privacy in this time and age and I'm always on the look for better privacy oriented #software and services.

Please feel free to follow me if you share any of my interests.

It looks like matrix.org is down again? Is there a place where I can check if it's a scheduled maintenance? Even their Mastodon instance looks like it's down.. #matrix

Why TF people are still publishing on medium?? You can't even login in with a email address, you need either a g or fb account. I wish some of the writers/communities in there would migrate to something more open.

Tripping at work with some good "All Them Witches" this morning:

Good morning folks. Stuck on a train stuck right before my station.

I'm wrapping my head about the #IndieWeb today. Really interesting. Any cool resources apart from IndieWeb.org that you know of?

I've learned quite a lot of new concepts and quirks though, I'm gonna retry soon, I think.

I'd love to get back on #Arch honestly, mostly for the rolling updates and the pacman system, so I might try out #Manjaro to keep things a bit on the easier side (I don't have too much free time to spend on this anymore, as I used to 10 years ago. Time flies, dear lord).

My recent #Ubuntu experience after 10 years I've been missing from the #Linux scene, has been troubled:
TBF I'm trying to install it on a laptop which is a bit complicated (Gigabyte Aero 15X v7). Nvidia drivers, UEFI bootloader, SafeBoot always on.
I made it work somehow, after a lot of trial and errors. Recently though, I had to format it out, mostly because of the swap partition encryption not working properly and the root partition that got filled by snap apps backups. Couldn't boot anymore.

I've just posted on my blog a calendar to keep track of jam sessions in #London. Any suggestion will be MUCH appreciated.

Working while listening to the latest Sunn O))) album. My software crashed. Coincidence? I don't think so...

I know it doesn't make much sense to share this on Mastodon but i believe it could be useful to re-share this Ted Talk about how the tech giants are disrupting democracy in chatting apps with family and friends. Let's spread the truth outside the Mastodon bubble too:

Happy Sunday Mastodon folks. For me it's going to (hopefully) be a day of relax at home. I want to start reading a few things I have on my shelves and get focused. That's really relaxing to me.

What are your plans for the day?

#Sunday #reading

I've got a fuzz pedal today. DOD Carcosa to be precise. It's my first ever fuzz effect for guitar. It took all this time to finally realise that the awesome walls of sound I used to love when I was a teenager were generated by fuzz pedals. Think Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Dinosaur Jr. I mean, I knew what a fuzz was but I didn't know how much it was defining the sounds I was hearing. A lot actually.

I've just purchased Composite Brush from #AeScripts. It's invaluable, it saved my day more than once in the last few months. I was able to use it in a studio I was freelancing at and now I needed it for my personal machine. Highly recommended, it saves you so much rotoscoping time and helps a lot in keying out difficult keys. A must have.
