Would you like to convert your old Tweets into Markdown?

I’ve created a script to do exactly that, designed first for Jekyll but designed to easily adapt to what you need

Meanwhile I'm writing an email to Roblox's legal team asking what is going on their their report to Cali's OAG on moderation

Why no one noticed that 648 approved appeals is not the 15.8k that's in the two other tables

@metacat@tech.lgbt Holy shit link link link

@metacat@tech.lgbt I do quite like the “or I’ll identify as a problem”, which I understand is more generally accepted in the community

@metacat@tech.lgbt

@metacat@tech.lgbt happy birthday 🥳

I'm be honest, it's sort of frustrating that there's not been one platform where a majority of Roblox developers exist

Apart from the Roblox DevForums and Discord (expect most developers aren't in the same Discord)

As a result, it becomes easy to exist on your own small boat

At least without remaining on a specific big platform that no one seems to want to actually leave even when things get explicitly worse and the message can be beyond clear.

I could not have made my report without being on Twitter and that's sad to me

@metacat@tech.lgbt Ah fuck...

@metacat@tech.lgbt yes

@metacat@tech.lgbt I’ve been on them before, they’re pretty cool

@metacat@tech.lgbt I’m sorry, it exists

A fun update to The Archive coming very soon.

As part of my cleaning up of Twitter, it's important that the things I've said continues to exist in some form. All 4.6k posts will be available in an easily searchable way

Maybe no one will ever use it, but I'm okay with that. I have some control over the things I've said over the years

Because that's what The Archive is all about, long term storage of what I've said and done. I hope this is a motivator to keep me writing more and be the sort of newsroom for what I create. I'm not sure.

@metacat@tech.lgbt it’s an understandable predicament to be in, it may be that you have a place where you can throw all this feeling into without feeling like you’re being a burden to others even when that may not be the case

I definitely want to move away from the UK, just gonna take time

@metacat@tech.lgbt imagine being straight

Not me

@metacat@tech.lgbt woke is good

@metacat@tech.lgbt It's why I'm excluding both the forums and Discord as a whole. DevForum in theory is the place where every developer exist but in the end the way you reach people aren't in a way that I'm looking for, at least compared to Twitter's historic presence in the community. Same with Discord in many respects.

I could not have republished what 20 media outlets covered, in regards to one Roblox developers actions in the same way on any other platform and that's frustrating

The funny thing is that those places exist but they’ve very gatekeeping or it's a special Guilded server with the activity to match

@metacat@tech.lgbt I love being medically diagnosed with a disability but not disabled enough for it to do anything

I fucking love it
