#SignalFlare My New Diaspora* account is on diaspora.glasswings.com due to JoindiasporaCom's planned shutdown
Notice as of 22 February 2022
I’ve created a new profile @Doc Edward Morbius (dredmorbius@diaspora.glasswings.com) on https://diaspora.glasswings.com.
Please add that account to your followers.
URL: https://diaspora.glasswings.com/u/dredmorbius
For Pluspora members migrating elsewhere, please follow dredmorbius@diaspora.glasswings.com rather than my soon-to-be-defunct JoindiasporaCom profile.
Profile Archives
I'm archiving my public posts at Archive.org's Wayback Machine. That captures the post text but not comments.
This process is automated and fairly easy.
I'm also archiving a selection of more significant posts at Archive.Today, which captures full comments. Those may be either via the joindiaspora.com domain or the diaspora.glasswings.com domain. This process is manual and requires individually submitting items. It is also generating notifications for any participants in old threads, I apologise for that.
Much of my public content should remain viewable on other pods if federated there, though once Joindiaspora.com is offline, interactions with content (comments, likes, reshares) will probably not be possible.
I've also privately exported my posts and will update that archive prior to the final shutdown.
I'm trying a new curation method for the Glasswings account with an Index and Curation thread:
https://diaspora.glasswings.com/posts/d9abf9f05459013a0103448a5b29e257
Posts from both Glasswings and Pluspora are included there, with title and often a short blurb, as well as a link. Given the lack of useful Diaspora* search, I'm hoping that will make finding / referencing earlier content easier, without overstuffing my bio page as I'd done here on JoindiasporaCom.
As previously, I have several other online accounts and profiles:
Email:
- dredmorbius <at> protonmail <dot> com (principle)
- dredmorbius <at> gmail <dot> com (fallback, rarely used or checked)
Mastodon: Highly active.
- https://toot.cat/@dredmorbius (primary)
- https://mastodon.cloud/@dredmorbius (forwarded to toot.cat)
- https://mastodon.social/@dredmorbius (forwarded to toot.cat)
Hacker News: Not exactly social media, but I'm fairly active
Reddit:
Not especially active.
- User account: https://old.reddit.com/user/dredmorbius
Subreddits: /r/dredmrobius and /r/plexodus principally.
- Tildes.net as "dredmorbius": https://tildes.net/user/dredmorbius
- "Git Lair" remains extant though inactive, on GitLab:
https://gitlab.com/dredmorbius/lair-of-the-id.git
- Ello: Largely inactive, but still extant:
I do not have any accounts on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or most other mainstream services. "dredmorbius" on these services is not me. (I'm aware of at least one Twitter account similarly named, again not me.)
There may be other incidental accounts on smaller services (e.g., GitHub, etc.), typically under my "dredmorbius" nym.

(The short link should be interactive, the full URL should work to identify the post if you're on a service that doesn't interact transparently with Diaspora post references.)

THIS POST ITSELF WILL POSSIBLY GO OFFLINE OR PREVENT FURTHER INTERACTIONS (COMMENTS, LIKES, RESHARES) FOLLOWING THE JOINDIASPORA SHUTDOWN.
Please do NOT discuss or announce plans on this post itself. (Discussion on re-shares should survive the shutdown.)
