Hey! You know what it's time for?

That's right, it's time to download an archive of your profile!

If you're on Mastodon, just head on over to your Preferences » Data export > Request archive. While you wait for that, go ahead and download your Follow list, and maybe your mute and block lists if those are important to you.

If you don't see "Download archive" show up within an hour (may require refreshing page) or don't get an email with the link, let your admin know. :-)

Don't forget to boost interesting stuff.

We on small instances depend on boosts quite a lot!

"Germany's supreme court has dismissed a landmark case brought by a publisher looking to destroy ad-blocking services in the country. European behemoth Axel Springer was defeated in its years-long battle with Eyeo, the firm that owns AdBlock Plus. Springer argued that blocking adverts was in violation of competition law, while AdBlock's whitelist strategy was legally dubious."
