Hi James. I really used to enjoy #FollowFridays, it would be nice to carry on the tradition in some way. It does make me wonder about each person's permanent digital identifier that they carry with them wherever they go on the Web. Right not we basically have two: email address or phone number, these are the two universal pieces of online identity that I can think of to track people as they move between platforms.
I deleted my Twitter account on Nov. 3 after 15 years, expecting the worst, and so far the worst seems to be dominating what's happening.

I was kicked off twitter or X the day after Trump was elected, I think for retweeting lots of Palestinians, but I can't be sure.
Anyways, I moved to BlueSky, which is similar, but not as populated or political. Might be something to check out...
Posting this now to encourage myself to respond with some worthwhile follows and people I've found/learned from through Twitter and everywhere else.
