Tech Daddy, wannabe luddite, Dungeon- and Game Master.

I make webshops better at and Work on the Winkel.

Also, fuck twitter and musk.

First five minutes I've spend on this hell site in three months, because I followed a link.

Saw one tweet by someone I follow. The rest is rage-bait, vibe coders, ads, porn-bots and good old fashioned white supremacy.

Why the fuck are people still on here?

Explaining to my wife how there's this one guy. And he alone is responsible for most of the world's distribution of PHP. And if anything happens to this guy, that's just it. Everyone is screwed.

[Luc Princen @LucP]

Everything patched, ancient-ass WP sites still on my network updated and brought kicking and screaming into PHP 8.2+

Daddy tired.

[Luc Princen @LucP]

@spinupwp Does this include older and unsupported versions of PHP?

Wow, dit is nogal “breaking” in “mijn” bubble https://t.co/hHKOtuutDP

@jeffr0 Soooo.... what happens to .org when this guy finally loses it? Suddenly 40% of the web is not updatable anymore.

[Luc Princen @LucP]

Welp, glad to see Matt is still being a douche. #okbye

First time in 13 years that I'm missing #WCNL and the FOMO is a real bitch...

[Luc Princen @LucP]

@jankeesvw And I didn't just quit twitter. I also quit instagram and facebook, because fuck meta.

Linkedin is next on the chopping block, but I still need that for certain business pages.

@jankeesvw Really? Haven't seen that on my mastodon instance. 😇

Look; I get it. Twitter alternatives have less people that you might be interested in following. All I'm saying is I think that's a feature, not a bug 😉

[Luc Princen @LucP]

@jankeesvw AND you click through to the "following" tab. And you pay for the platform to get rid of the ads 😉

[Luc Princen @LucP]

@Dan0sz @marinusklasen Mastodon doesn't have a "For you" tab. It's just people you're following without an algorithm. So I'm on there and I'm simply enjoying it more.

Even in the following tab most of what I'm seeing is shouting matches, but that might just mean I need to prune who I follow.

Hey America,

are your eggs cheaper yet?

Sure as fuck hope they are.

[Francesca Marano @FrancescaMarano]

Ouch. Considering the amount of volunteer work put into @WCEurope - and any other WordPress event across the world - this reply feels unfair towards current organisers and could potentially discourage future ones. I hope you'll reconsider comparing the flagship events 🙏

[Luc Princen @LucP]

I really don't use twitter anymore but I need to keep this account alive, so I'm just going to periodically dump horrible dutch music here.

Deal with it, or come and have fun in the Fediverse.

@jonoalderson LETS USE AI TO AUTOMATICALLY CREATE MORE CONTENT!

Surely if we publish hourly, they'll like us again!

I received the template reinstatement letter from https://t.co/VKlJfw6pIk.

It takes no accountability for the damage inflicted to my reputation & community (or mental health), nor addresses my 2nd CoC complaint.

Dismissing harm compounds the harm. This is not ok.

[Luc Princen @LucP]

mornin' hellsite.
