@_elena CC-BY-ND is a good choice

@_elena Good luck!

@_elena sounds wonderful. I'm working through the Lego technic Earth, Moon and Sun set. It's too easy so I'm trying to drag it out.

It'd be good to see a photo of the typewriter when you're done!

@_elena that's a busy day!

@_elena Buon viaggio!

@_elena they look great!

@_elena that's a good way to start the day!

@_elena Thanks. Ideally, I'll be able to use it as a way to get my kids interested in computing and data sovereignty.

@_elena thanks. I'm on a similar journey, but still using other people's servers (e.g. proton). I have a RPi4 and I'm in the process of upgrading to a RPi5 as the 4 was just too slow.

@_elena why are you self-hosting?

@_elena I have a similar issue, but Linux is pretty good once you get used to it. I'm upgrading from a RPi 4 to 5 at the moment so I'm thinking about which OS to go for and whether it would be able to finally replace my 9yr old Mac air.

@_elena good progress! How are you finding Ubuntu on the Pi? And is it good enough to use as a desktop computer?

I've deleted Twitter from my phone and I'm going to give Mastodon a real try. Can this platform be a fairer, more inclusive social media?

Any advice for who to follow, instances etc., please throw my way.
