Hmm... after 12 years of using Diaspora, I finally got around to organizing my #Aspects this morning. For all these past years I've only had one Aspect called "Aspect Prime"; everyone and everything got dumped into it.

Well, I found that I often post somewhat personal things (bitching about being out of Jack Daniel's, for example) to that single Aspect that really aren't meant for everyone. So, I've created two new Aspects: Aspect Secondary and Aspect Bots.

Those of you who've been in my Aspect Prime forever (it seems) will remain there, but others who are new to me and that I'm not too familiar with or folks who've gone quiet (inactive) over the years have been transferred to the Aspect Secondary. Also, all the "non-official" tech news, general news, and other stuff have been moved to Aspect Bots.

So, YAY! I'm all organized now.

A note for folks who "Follow" me (add me to their Aspects)... I do NOT always add back immediately. I like to let a person develop some sort of posting history so that I can judge a bit better who they are and where they're coming from before I add them back (if I ever do). This doesn't mean I don't like them or won't interact with them on Public posts; it just means that I'm wary of strangers, as I am in real life. Don't take it personally if I don't add you back right away.

Regards ALL!

Well, friends...

This will be the last one from me for some time. I've decided that I need a break from this place... and the Internet in general, for the most part.

I want to thank all of you who've befriended me in this place over the last many years. I also want to thank the patient and kind Owner/Admin of diasp.org who's been letting me freeload on his servers for about a dozen years now.

I've cleared my Profile and also deleted about the last three years of my posts, cleared my #Aspects, and ALL of my hundreds of PMs that I had saved. That should make some space on the servers for something more useful than my shit.

Take care all of you!

Peace ☮️

Folks :

I am doing my best to reconnect with everyone that I was sharing Aspects with over on Pluspora. With nearly 900 accounts over many different pods (though I suspect probably a hundred of them are inactive) I am sure to miss a few. If you were connected with me over there and add me into your aspects that would be appreciated as it will make the process easier (I know some of you are facing the same daunting task as I am).

Additionally Right Now I am only making two aspects, rather than the many detailed aspects I was running previously. So Basically You are In my General Acquaintances Aspect or a Combination of that and my #Life Aspect. I will still use the tagline system on my posts but since I actually post a lot less than I did back when I set those aspects up, I am not as afraid as I once was of overwhelming people with posts and content.
