I’ve joined Bluesky
I’ve not been all that happy about my continued use of X / Twitter. I’ve decided that I’m going to focus more effort into Bluesky from now on. I see this as a platform which has ethics more aligned to my own. You can find me here: https://bsky.app/profile/nathanwrigley.com

Working from home

My Facebook account got suspended
So just now, my Facebook account got suspended. Weird. I was not doing anything, was not even near a computer and none of the devices that I own have Facebook installed. I got this email: When I clicked on the only link in that email I got this: As you can see, all very satisfying […]
