I’ve made a new page that I can throw microposts at, so I can link to them from Mastodon, Twitter, BlueSky, whatever. This way they’re published here first, and I retain copyright. It’s not perfect, and I need to set up bridges to automatically post to other platforms. Ideally, though, I would publish here first. There’s of course more questions around image hosting, retweets or boosts, proper metadata and conforming to platform limits like character counts.

All times are in UTC, until GitHub Pages finds a better way of working.
