That's not myself! I don't track anybody. That's my evil twin. He never comes when summoned, but is always showing up uninvited, where he's not wanted, and at the worst possible, most embarrasing moments. > > If you aren't interested in replying to Mastodon posts, though, you're > probably better off with the RSS feed Slávek suggested. Yes, I think for me, for now, I am satisfied just to be an occasional observer. I'll save my rants for the mailing list. :-] It seems that I ought to learn how to do that rss thing. There are a couple of podcasts (for old-timey music) that I know ask for rss subscription, but I just sidestep that part and download the mp3 of the show to my machine. That is not what they intend, of course, but it works for me. However, I probably ought to learn how to do this rss for real. It might come in handy.
