Unfortunately I was too poorly to present this week's Tech Life (thanks Alasdair Keane for stepping in!) but we have a cracking show about the people in Brazil still using X despite the ban, quantum mechanics, and construction tech 👷🏼‍♂️ bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3…

OK I'm up to just under 1/4 of my following here. Assuming a significant fraction of the numbers here are dormant, and a significant fraction just miss my posts because timing, and a significant other fraction because algorithm.... I reckon that is a good replacement rate.

Ah I see moronic, racist clickbait about the UK is whizzing round this place. I guess that is better than Musk saying he wants to fuck Taylor Swift.

Reminds me of the CBO charts. Obvs there is an important strategic decision about the width of the chart which affects how steep the line looks.

THEY'RE EATING ALL THE DOGS said a guy who is close to being President again, but 'the American dream is alive and well'.

Just to put this out there with clarity - maybe time to stop using your feed to keep eyeballs on this site that Musk uses to spread hate, disinformation, promote Nazi accounts, support Trump.... each thread you post here is one less you post over there to help the new effort.

Tony Yates I'm not a (relatively) high-profile account like you, and my follower numbers on BlueSky are less than a quarter of what they are here. But there is far more _interaction_ there, which leads me to conclude that the algorithm means that to most of my X "followers" I'm invisible.

Another heads up for the drinks to mark Labour's 100 days, Thurs 10 Oct, 7pm. If I follow you, you're invited. DM me for the North London pub venue. [Apologies for last tweet which said, in error, [😂] 'if you follow me...'... sorry have to decide somehow.]
