Two follows were selected, their posts will show here, we’ll see how it goes and if well try to find others to add, these were selected

The posts until now are from just 3 follows and I think followers of theirs

Change default view to no tags for the moment to help with clutter

# WHOA 🖐

Lots of federated posts, too many, I removed two of the four followers to try to slow the roll.

The posts must be coming from followers of the four I chose to follow as there’s a lot as seen here grayed out

This site is not growing.

But my weekly scheduled calls with FULL30 did not occur the last two weeks and I didn’t reach out for info, largely, again, just tired of it all, only so much waiting c…

And today will be five weeks since I’ve heard from FULL30 so in effect I’m spraying and praying here.

I will seek help to try and make these fediverse posts more manageable and aesthetic.
