Kobo eReaders no longer make sense in 2025. Half of library books no longer sync because of mismatches with the Kobo catalog. Pocket is shutting down.

Kindles have wireless charging, flush screens, water resistance, faster CPUs, 5Ghz WiFi, an autosyncing companion app. And Send to Kindle!!!

2,000 words on knitting with pet hair and no single mention of… cats?!? I will not stand for this cat erasure. Persians and Birmans are endless supplies of fur way softer (and cleaner!) than any dog’s.

Knitting with dog hair was a craze in the 90s – let’s make it happen again

I have a spiffy new handle: @steadic.at! This matches the username I’ve been using everywhere for 20+ years.

I chose the name because it combined two of my obsessions at the time: Steadicams and cats. It stuck because it shares lots of letters with my real name (STEadicAT = STEfano ATtardi).

AOC catching on to what I’ve been saying about Meta’s approach to product design for 15 years. This is also the main reason I left Facebook in 2013.
The Meta thing is interesting because users have been vocally opposed to all these tweaks along the way & they have defended each one w/ metrics+engagement.

But when there’s competition, people are moving.

It’s a reminder that engagement ≠ enjoyment. Wonder what experts have to say about this ⬇️
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahhaha
