Will I have a complete slide deck in time for this? Who knows!! 🤷 But more importantly, will I win in the category of Best Hand-Painted Slides In Collaboration With Their 12yo? Hell yes.

The good news for Twitter is that they're getting my most significant engagement in months today!! The bad news for Twitter is that it's to see all my follows' Threads usernames. I'm at @pepopowitz" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">threads.net/@pepopowitz.

Now I'm worried that you don't know I'm coming, and will give my seat away to someone else. How can I connect someone to check into my United flight over the phone, or how else might I resolve this?

@united help! I'm sitting on a plane operated by another airline, it is delayed, and I'm not checked in for my United connecting flight because your system is having issues with my reservation. I was told to talk to an agent when I got to Zurich, but...

2. If you're an "own your content" kind of person, you can use a tool like github.com/tweetback/twee… to turn your Twitter archive into a website. Mine's at tweets.stevenhicks.me.

1. I prefer movetodon.org for migrating follows, the UI is nice, and you can see who's active and who isn't. Plus, look at that sweet opengraph image 🤩 ...

In your podcast player today -- I talk to @mweinand about the list-making that helps him be a Very Reliable Person ™️. We talk about problem solving, context switching, and the pressures we put on ourselves to be dependable. anchor.fm/a-developer-ex…

Thanks to all the friends I met here. This was my favorite form of social media, it fit with my brain (and preyed on it but who's counting). The software engineering community here was incredible. Hope I see you over at the 🦣 site.

Hey, in the next week I'm planning to GTFO. I will... 1. Do this: zachleat.com/web/tweetback/ 2. Do something with my account here, not sure what yet 3. Delete this app 4. Fully embrace my @pepopowitz@hachyderm.io 🦣 account I'll keep stevenhicks.me/where updated.
