Debian: Leaving Twitter, Videoteam Sprint in Cape Town, and WordPress 6.1

Bastian Venthur: Mastodon
Due to recent events around Twitter, I finally decided to give Mastodon a try.
[...]
For no particular reason, I went with the mastodon.social instance, so my handle is @venthur@mastodon.social. After my first steps, I realized that choosing the instance does have an impact, particularly if you follow the local timeline. mastodon.social is currently one of the biggest instances and therefore the local timeline is very busy and the topics naturally very random. Maybe I’ll try out a more specialized instance such as fosstodon at some point – one of the awesome features of Mastodon is that it actually supports the migration of accounts between instances!

Day 3 of the Debian Videoteam Sprint in Cape Town
The Debian Videoteam has been sprinting in Cape Town, South Africa -- mostly because with Stefano here for a few months, four of us (Jonathan, Kyle, Stefano, and myself) actually are in the country on a regular basis. In addition to that, two more members of the team (Nicolas and Louis-Philippe) are joining the sprint remotely (from Paris and Montreal).

WordPress 6.1 - Dropbear
Debian will soon have WordPress version 6.1 I’m not really sure of the improvements, but there is a new 2023 theme as part of the update.
They really weren’t mucking around when they said the 6.0.3 security release would be short-lived.
