I need to collect Netherlands and Germany at some point too! They're so cute. Pic attached from Temu site - seemingly not seen these anywhere else!

This will definitely be helpful, perhaps especially for those of us on small instances (including single-user instances).
Looks like it will be disabled by default at least at first: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p…

Rant time:
It’s unbelievable that Windows 11 does not recognize that I removed OneDrive and ms Teams. After one simple update or reboot, it always comes back. The CPU is constantly running at 100%, and I don’t have anything open except for Task Manager. This laptop is less than 24 hours old, and I’m already preparing to switch back to Pop!_OS in the next few days. I knew that Windows was terrible, but even after de-bloating the OS, I don’t feel or see a difference.

Good morning!
Today on my early-morning walk I finally saw some snowdrops and crocuses. Usually by this time my primroses would be blooming and there would be daffodils everywhere. We're having such a late spring after all the polar vortices.
Annie's special food has not yet arrived, but she seems to be doing well on the anti-nausea meds and she loves the pill pockets. So there's hope.
Today will be a day of laundry and writing. Laundry, anyway. We'll see about the writing.
Have a good one, my friends.
#Today
Happy Hump Day my fellow citizens of the Fediverse. May your day go smoothly and for those of you in the good old USA may you and yours manage the "economic transition" with as little anguish as possible.
Be well, stay safe, do good stuff.
Cheers.
[12:08] Dit ga je merken van importtarieven op Amerikaanse producten: ‘Koop snel nog een paar Levi’s of fles drank’
Nederlanders die aan de importheffingen op Amerikaanse producten willen ontkomen, kunnen nog snel een nieuwe spijkerbroek, fles whiskey of motorfiets kopen. „Als het tijd is voor een nieuwe Levi’s spijkerbroek en je wilt het zekere voor het onzekere nemen, dan kun je die het beste nu aanschaffen”, zegt winkelexpert Paul Moers.
