I wish the universe would cut me a bit of slack. Elderly Aunt has had a hip replacement after accident which means a whistle stop visit back to the old country, and some difficult conversations about organising her care. There is nobody else.

On top of my existing family caring responsibilities (which are complex) and several relatives I'm involved in organising or supporting.

[#]Spotify continues to get worse, with chancers like this labelling tracks the same as common calls you might make. Not quite #enshittification, more bad management of tracks that a "Verified artist" can upload. Now legitimately someone might write a song called "My discovery weekly playlist" but that would almost certainly be an attempt to cheat the system. So the algorithm needs to qualify that.

Colleagues are planning a #hackathon for January but struggling to get #sponsors at the moment. Cisco have donated (yay!) but our other regular industry contacts are holding out empty pockets. Maybe it's year end or something?

Any good networks that we can tap into?

Can't seem to work out why I can't export the data from my prevous instance. Is it because it's now inactive? Tried this a few times and when I go back to the page, bupkiss.

[#]Welcome post, as such!

Moved to a new instance as some interactions with people were blocked due to previous one.

[#]Migration seems to have gone ok, although I can't seem to set alias here (old server blocked maybe?).
