Listen. I, like any Welsh-speaking child in the 90s, learnt basic English the way God intended: by playing Nintendo games on my siblings' GameBoys.
The reversal of this concept is how I reckon the Welsh Government can not just achieve Cymraeg 2050, but smash the target into smithereens.

I really need to put more effort into building myself a decent BlueSky feed. My Twitter one was a perfect blend of Trydar Cymraeg, YouTube personalities who were big in 2012 and nice cat owners in Cardiff who'd let me catsit for them.
I built a utopia, but I fear the tools I used no longer exist.

Hello! Back after *checks calendar* fifteen months. Won't lie, I briefly forgot that Bluesky exists, but I forgot about Threads for even longer so that's something.

I wonder if it’s just going to be Facebook all over again, with one app catering to so-called “normies” (but in a more Twitter-like format) and one that appeals more to a smaller demographic of weirdos but still has cultural influence

This is absolutely hilarious to me. They pushed it so hard because they needed it to catch on, not because it was actually catching on at all

Losing access to TweetDeck is genuinely a massive blow for smaller organisations that simply cannot (and don't want to) justify paying for verification, but until a fully accessible competitor appears, we're bloody lumped with the bird site.
In more bird site news:
I really want to stress pushing your electeds/local governments to rethink how their offices communicate with the general public, especially when it comes to emergencies.
A lot of the decision makers don't realize what's happening with Twitter, and their digital folks -
