August 2025 in review / Récap d’août 2025

Petite vue sympa dans les Pyrénées.

I spent a week of holidays in Southwest France, at my uncle’s place. He lives off-grid.

An attempt at leaving Mastodon

I’m making an attempt at leaving Mastodon. I’ve set up a redirect from my Mastodon profile to this blog, which auto-posts all new content to federated platforms (at @Alex@alexsirac.com). Answers to posts will show up as comments for me, and I have a booklet that allows me to answer posts directly from the blog, which…

A beautiful sunny day. On a beach, there's a picnic table under a little roof. Far away at the other side of the lake, a mountain.

This was a busy month, so I’m once again doing the bare minimum with the monthly recap, sorry! I am, however, catching up on the missing week of April as promised. So you won’t get much personal fluff, but you do get all the recommendations and even a bit more! What I’ve read / Texte…
