I guess my tooting is somewhat focusing to Pleroma at https://social.libre.fi/mikaela so it may be better to follow especially on things unrelated to politics (which I don't think I am tooting so much about anyway).

#GoodBye to you #Twitter, you brought this to yourself and until maybe half an hour ago I had no intention of removing my account.

All I wanted was to retweet YLE News with a comment on Finland being an island and there not being any way to get to e.g. #Prague without airplane. I mentioned #Talsinki and #RailBaltica and ended up looking at their profiles and following them.

Boom! Account locked, complete neverending #Captcha that requires #GoogleChrome to pass so I could finally delete it.

It is proven! I am mikaela on Keybase: https://keybase.io/mikaela/sigchain#a3ebe302a3a3284c1980302f51d5178b6da9439e8c5a3d8aa1e18504695d13ea0f

I should type these "stories" to the fine blog or at least Hubzilla which didn't have the charcount restriction last time I checked.

There is also my partner telling everyone that he has reverse engineered my accent when we first talked on Mumble. It's English, but put to pronunciation rules of Czech plus a bit of differences coming from Finnish and then he has no problems understanding it.

It feels embarassing to hear even when they say it nicely and it just feels weird when my metamour needs them to do English-English translation and the problem is much wider, even with audio issue another FI speaker didn't get the accent.

My very #Finnish accent for #English hit me again and I imagine it's going to keep doing that as I don't know how to learn a better accent and speak understandably.

#Pronunciation wasn't very big priority at school and most of my English comes from #IRC and fantasy books and neither cared about how I speak, it's when I go abroad or have to #VoIP when the problems come.

How have you learned to actually speak English assuming you aren't native? And how did you find the time for it?

So I finally took the time to read more about #IndieWeb that hadn't appeared in my bubble enough for me to actually do something and I guess I have started the work by linking mikaela.info and this #Mastodon account together to get that nice green background and checkmark for it.

I hope I understood enough in quick note to my website's GitHub issue tracker.

Hopefully I will do more tomorrow, but I have a bit too much to do with too little spoons.

@yggdrasilradio I thought you were a radio on https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/ maybe you should make yourself available over it? 😜

I wonder why I don't get VoWiFi on MiFi today while it worked yesterday, but maybe it will reappear.

I find Mastalab UI preferable to AndStatus and now I have no problem using it again as I don't need to have a separate Twitter account.

The retweet, I guess it's now a toot and I can link directly to YLE News and add more hashtags:

But how do you get out of #Finland without #flying? It seems that there is no way to get to #Prague without #aviation or you will be changing vechiles a lot, staying at hotels for nights and getting a lot more expensive bill than a plane. #Talsinki tunnel or #RailBaltica isn't here

OK, I have logged in to Mastodon for the first time in a long time and adjusted settings and moved 2FA from Authy to Bitwarden.

I guess language filtering makes the timeline a bit more understandable to me, but there is still some French (what would I expect on French instance? :)) and too much for me to read, so I guess I am disappearing for some time again.
