Dear Fedi friends,

Yesterday I posted a toot about #WSocial on this account (I typically talk about them on Mastodon, but I needed more than 500 characters, so I switched here). It was widely shared and discussed.

Some of you may have missed my articles critiquing W Social. I have been following them - with a critical eye - and collecting evidence since their soft launch at Davos in January: https://blog.elenarossini.com/tag/w-social/

Anyway, some of you mistook the tone of yesterday's toot and thought I was ENDORSING signing up for an account on W Social. In reality I was being sarcastic 🙃​

I will make sure to spell out my intentions much more clearly next time.

At any rate, my latest article about them made it to Hacker News yesterday (wild) and my research has been quoted in Dutch, German and French news outlets. The tide is finally turning (from fawning PR coverage to a more distanced, critical look).

Thank you for your support as always! ❤️​

Anyone thinking of going to All Things Open 2026 in Raleigh NC?

A few folks and I are discussing some kind of Fediverse meet up and attempting to have conversations around the Fediverse. #ATO2026 #Raleigh #Open #Fediverse

@_elena@mastodon.social I try. I don't look so great in the cheerleading skirt, but gotta do what I gotta do. This reminds me, I need to look into getting a kilt. They seem very comfy.

I want to make some ceramic flower frames, but still figuring out the logistics. #painting #bees #MastoArt

@_elena@mastodon.social thank you so much for your passion and love. We're all stronger with you here.

Good morning Fedi friends!

Today marks the one year anniversary of the release of my video “Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media”

It really takes a village 💜

@dandelionutilitarian@mastodon.social MI6 would like a word with you.

Can't begin to state how pissed and stressed I am atm. We leave for vacation tomorrow. We booked through Expedia. Which includes adding in names and ages. It's booked through Delta. The flight is totally booked.

We never got to book our seats. It seemed we had to pick our seats at arrival to the airport or on getting on our flight. Just got an email, they put the four of us, mind you my wife, myself, and a 9 and 6 year old, all separate, in middle seats. I'll be damned with if I let my 9 and 6 year olds sit alone during their first flights ANYWHERE. And of course their support takes "on average" 37 minutes to respond. Wife opened a chat, and of course, nothing they can do, but they're certain that someone at the gate can help tomorrow.

I fucking hate travel. My father's response? "This is why I like driving". Yeah. 12 hours in a car is just dandy.

I am officially putting myself out there. I'll repost my dating profile which I shared via @JenJen's Owncast stream.

(Solid 0/10 flirting attempt)

@tomstafford Not exactly a meme, but
