Jared White ✊ RESIST 🙅🏻‍♂️

Good Morning! 👋 😃

It's Monday, which means it's time for me to ask you to subscribe to my Internet Technology & Urbanist newsletter! Only a few of you have thus far since its summertime launch, which is my bad because I'm terrible at marketing. 🫣

Published by @theinternet, you can read the latest issues and sign up here:

More #fediverse and #openweb topics incoming, so don't you miss it! ☺️ And if you have ideas of what I should write about next, let me know!

Hey #fediverse,

I'm writing a deep dive for @theinternet all about #VivaldiBrowser. Any suggestions of what to include or questions about it? It seems to be getting a lot of buzz these days, especially with the slow decline into irrelevance for Firefox.

Wow, all my @mastohost instances are already running @Mastodon v4.3. Way to go! 🎉

#fediverse #opensource #selfhosting

I'll need to write down some thoughts over at @theinternet soon about the new Social Web Foundation, because I have a strong feeling we'll look back at this moment as the start of something truly special going forward. Lots of blue-sky explorations possible here…

Hello Fedi! 👋 I'm presently available for part-time contract web dev, with expertise in frontend architecture, performance, backing out of questionable dependencies aka Use the Platform™ (HTML & CSS FTW!), & accessibility. I'm also proficient in Ruby & Node-based full-stack monoliths, auditing legacy codebases, and open source strategies.

I'd love to have a conversation! (I'm also able to coach individuals & small teams to get you unstuck and making meaningful progress. Let's chat!)

#FediHire

I'll be honest, I've always found it hard to talk about my Business (with a capital B) on social media because it's so easy to sound spammy and corporate (blech). Double that here in the Fediverse. 😅

But the thing is I work as a freelancer (@whitefusion) building web software, and now offering 1:1 coaching, and both those industries are really tight right now. So I literally can't afford not to promote myself, because it's the difference between eating and…not. 🤷🏻‍♂️

So what's a good balance here?

✅ My Now page is now, now, not then any longer. Been meaning to check that off the ol' to-do list for a long time! 😅 Howdy springtime 2024! 🌸

Congratulations to @Iconfactory for the successful Kickstarter funding of Project Tapestry!

There's lots of love for #RSS, the #Fediverse, and open web protocols. We get to celebrate that and look forward to The Iconfactory's unique vision for building an app in this space. Can't wait. ✌️

TIL you can just open additional windows in @ivory on iPad and do whatever you want.

Multiple accounts, views, post composition…anything! 🙌

This is bullshit. No serious journalist/pundit should be lending any air of legitimacy to this failing Nazi bar platform. Boo!
