Katherine 🪴
Hi! I’m Katherine, or webkitten. I’ve been on the internet since our family got our first computer - a Tandy Sensation.
Yes, I went to computer camp as a kid and learned how to program BASIC on Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 4.
I’m trans, queer, and bisexual. #actuallyautistic
I started programming with PHP in the mid 90s and haven’t stopped. I’m an advocate for the open web; I used Netscape as long as I can remember.
I have an obsession with Hello Kitty, Moogles, and Squishmallows.

The early 2000s music sharing software company LimeWire — now resurrected as a crypto company by new owners — won rights to the infamous Fyre Festival in an auction that was held on eBay, reportedly beating out Ryan Reynolds’ company for the rights.
Just get it on archive.org; it’s probably a lot safer.
They already know about Anna’s Archive considering the disruption back during the summer.

It’s pretty low maintenance so it works great.

Ads are technically content, I suppose.
If you’re able to, I just use CalDav with Tasks/DavX on Android.

The old extension platform before the switch to WebExtensions. I was just saying Firefox pre-Quantum was better than post-Quantum (after the switch to WebExtensions and away from XUL extensions).
I use Fennec and Nightly on Android, mostly because of extensions. On desktop, I’ve been using Vivaldi.
Personally I feel that XUL Gecko > Vivaldi Chromium > Current Gecko. Especially since Vivaldi’s built in tracker and ad blocker is really good and Chromium feels much smoother than current Gecko. I do hate that it’s propping up Chromium market-share, but at least I can set up Vivaldi to use their own custom user agent.
I feel that Gecko/Firefox lost so much with the switch away from XUL and to WebExtensions.
Parents will go to where their family are on social; either get the family to post elsewhere, or teach them to be conscious about being on the big tech platforms.
Teach them about privacy settings like post audience; post pruning; privacy options; privacy checkups.
