Let me explain:
I have two accounts on the #fediverse
1. This one: @shojiwax On which I post links to my website articles PLUS a general stream of consciousness remarks links, boosts and comments.
2. https://mastodon.au/@shojiwax.com@shojiwax.com this is a direct feed from my website and includes full text of my writings. Sorta like subscribing to my #blog’s RSS feed.

Okay really quick and rough version, but a good start. This is my progress on my Fediverse for Photographers blog.
Any input and additions appreciated! I still have more to add from the suggestions provided the other day.

Apparently for some reason I had to point out that if Mein Kampf is your favorite book, yes you probably are a nazi.

I am downright delighted to announce that my latest book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, has a brand new look. I really love it, and I hope you do too.
Here’s a look at what’s changed and—maybe more importantly—what’s stayed the same:

In an effort to create and provide better articles on my blog, especially those related to cybersecurity and tech, I want to get your feedback on what type of articles y’all would like to see.
So, let me know below the types, series, etc. that I can write about.
Feel free to share to help spread across the #fediverse.

Could all of you spam my website on Linkedin? I want to make people that wear suits and ties uncomfortable. https://sightlessscribbles.com/the-colonization-of-confidence/ #Blog #Blogging #IndieWeb #LinkedIn
I wrote about how social media habits make it hard to write a good opening and how a BBC4 radio program helped me overcome the urge to waffle.
Neither waffle nor a cold open: In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg is my model for topic introductions

I know #FollowFriday has passed by this week but I wanted to showcase another Blind blogger. Jeff! You can find his RSS feed at https://jalapenosintheoatmeal.wordpress.com/feed/ and I met him way back in about 2011 and it really is a calming and funny blog to follow. He is a blind senior writing about his life.
Again, his RSS feed is
While hoping and waiting for the bubble to pop, I have started writing about the planet-burning brain asbestos of our times, starting with issues related to sovereignty, independence and dependency on unsavory companies.

This is a split from a mega-post that I have started writing more than a year ago and that I can’t seem to finish ever, so apologies if it does not reach a real conclusion on its own 🫠.

Hi. I'm terrified.
I've been trying to make my own space on the web for years. And I've been stuck. Badly.
But today is my birthday. And I refuse to let another year pass without putting something—anything—out there.
So here it is in all its messy glory. My first post on my barely-there #website: https://fromemily.com/hi-im-terrified/
It's not great. But it's okay...enough.
And I hope it means something to someone.

PSA for people with #Wordpress blogs: do you know that you can turn off comments on old posts?
In the last few months I have noticed a significant uptick in spammy comments on my Wordpress blogs (I have 4).
Well there is a way to remedy all that: you can simply turn off comments on old blog posts by going to:
Settings -> Discussion -> and checking "Automatically close comments on old posts"
(You can even determine the "oldness" of posts, for example, older than 7 days, 14 days... anything you'd like)
Enabling this made all the difference for me. I could not recommend it more.
End of my PSA 🤗
Have a great day everyone!
