About this episode
The episode discusses the changes to Twitter since Elon Musk's acquisition, explores alternatives in the Fediverse, and shares various approaches to time management and open-source contributions.
It's been 18 months since Elon Musk acquired Twitter and there's no denying he changed it irrevocably. We discuss how much we still miss the Twitter of old, and whether the Fediverse alternatives are bridging the gap. We also talk about that most precious resource: time. We share our different approaches to time management and task organisation, from doodle-filled hand-drawn lists to To-Do apps and color-coded calendars. And when we do have some spare time, are we doing open-source contributions out of obligation, or because they bring us joy?
