Phildini @ The Shop @phildini@wandering.shop

Hey folks! We're about to upgrade the shop to mastodon 3.4.2 (and maybe beyond!) so let us know if you see anything weird.

@Johannab @Annalee Following up on this!

We are pleased to announce @Johannab is the starting member of the next team of community admins!

Hello Wandering Shoppers!

@shuttermonster has come forward and is being considered to take up the mantle as one of the Shop's Sysadmins.

Do you have thoughts on this? Please DM (and only DM) @phildini AND @Annalee on Discord or Mastodon (preferably Discord) if so. Please don't post those thoughts publicly, as we want folks' unbiased opinions.

We'll have an update by then end of the week, and we are hoping to build a sysadmin team to share the load, so join the conversation on Discord!

If you have friends who want out, send them to me. I will personally give them a guided tour of the shop, including setting up mobile apps or whatever.

Because I still get (good faith!) questions about it, please, I beg you, don't let your friends join or use c̶o̶u̶n̶t̶e̶r̶.̶s̶o̶c̶i̶a̶l̶

I could express why at length, but here's just one case. Compare how much external JS they load vs the no-external-js for the shop and most other mastodon sites.

If they want to claim they're not selling data, it starts _there_.

There is a surprising lack of #achewood content the Shop has seen.

Learning to draw as an adult is one of the hardest things I've done so far.

also I'm phildini.tumblr.com for those who keep the faith

I made a twitter thread I think people here would appreciate (as it talks about the future of the web and #tumblr in particular)

I'm trying to auto-cross-post less, so occasionally I'll drop interesting things here.
