I started reading this article, and it's making me want to stop and think about it. It's making me reevaluate how I'm consuming and engaging with media.

I haven't even finished it, and I want to share it and say that I think this is a good read, and I want to discuss this more:

People rarely show up for you in the ways you need them to. I'm learning that sometimes, offering gratitude for how they do show up is better than stewing over their shortcomings. Because we all offer empathy in different ways.

I'm not the type of person who will ever offer a hug. But, I will give you my last donut if you're feeling down.

@adam okay not to overstep but you got me thinking about it. How cool would an analytics system with a "like" button be if it were somehow integrated into omg.lol and with the omg community.

New post: I'm too sleepy to write a compelling synopsis, maybe I'll do it in the morning. But, I think you'll like this. Money back guarantee.

This is one of about a dozen or so essays that I got 90% there, and then never posted.

I hope you enjoy

NYT just casually pushing their app (featuring invasive tracking) on web users by advertising that nobody on staff knows CSS.

Honestly? Checks out.

@adam ahhh I hear ya. I'm a recovering marketing executive so while I don't give a shit about SEO and I think it ruins the writing, I do still have the impulse to know where my readers are coming from maybe the answer is to go analytics-free idk

Thanks again for the heads up. Funny thing is I would've gladly continue to pay him for the service in perpetuity. But damn, I can't deal with that shit. Hell no.

@fromjason Yeah. 😟 @cory mentioned https://www.goatcounter.com but I don’t have any personal recommendations since I’m one of the weirdos who just doesn’t do any analytics at all. 😄

Since not everyone knows or remembers, this is your friendly reminder that the Tinylytics developer is maybe just a little too bigoted and a little too comfy with fash people/tech.

(He also still works at Micro.blog, even though his name was removed from the website to hide that fact.)

Just saw a news article claiming the #Jellyfin for #Roku 3.1.0 update aims to convince #Plex users to switch.

We're not trying to convince people to do anything. We just want the Jellyfin client that we use to be the best it can be.

That's it.

If you wanna switch, cool. If you don't, cool. I'm not here to tell anyone what to do nor convince them to make any decisions.

Just enjoy your #media however you want to and be happy 🤘

@adam fucking hell. I don't like this one bit. I get the sense he'd love to see me deported. Can't support that. Thanks for the info.

Any recs? I really like the little "like" button on tinylytics.

@fromjason I’ve got bad news for you about the Tinylytics guy. He hates “pronouns”, worships the ground Elon Musk walks on, and is a rampant X and Grok user. 😞
