Bridging identity with account links
One of the most common questions we get here is, “can you help me connect all my different accounts?” You’re on Bluesky, and Instagram, and Mastodon, you make a video series on YouTube, you have a blog, sometimes you post on Reddit, and a while back you set up

If you bought a Framework Laptop 13 at its original launch, it required a lot of blind faith. The idea of a laptop you could upgrade yourself was spectacular in theory, but here we are, more than four years later, seeing Framework’s grand ambitions come to fruition.

By betraying his voters so comprehensively and so soon, Keir Starmer has done us a favour. He has given us 4 years to design the government we want.
In this week's column I explain how it can be done. There's massive

Great to see this happening in my neighborhood - I'm not surprised.
Obviously no reflection on Diane at all - it's entirely a response to the awful Labour Government who are turning people away in their droves.
Expect more of this & we'll be here with the positive alternative.
