Using @soapboxsoftware now for around a week. On Mac and on iOS, the way to go. Meanwhile also my feeds are loading. There are small things, I would love to see, like a threaded view in the timeline (original post &amp; answer together). But the function to show crossposts just awesome!

Somehow, I closed this week 175 tasks. 😳 What a week. But now, I go get a good Vietnamese beer.

Playlist on Apple Music was updated today. Still, it plays last week’s song, even on the screen I see the new songs. Also restarted the app. My wish for the #WWDC - fix these bugs. If the Spotify app is better on Mac, you are doing something wrong.

I’m trying to set up the Fediverse account for my travel blog. Seems the account is now mostly visible: @wyssdaniel@travel-explore.asia Did I do that correctly? Can you see that? 🤔

We explored Kandy’s markets and cooked authentic food, then took the famous train to Ella. We biked in Ella, hiked Mini Adams Peak, zip-lined over the valleys. Sri Lanka was great! Full episode on YouTube! https://youtu.be/q8NQrFbGX9M #SriLanka #travel

&quot;A four-day, four-night expedition across 250km of remote northern Palawan, connecting El Nido to Coron. Travelling by traditional bangka through hidden coves and deserted beaches, snorkel over thriving reefs and sleep under the stars in Tao’s bamboo basecamps.&quot; OK. I am in. Booked! 🇵🇭 Coming in February.

RE: https://wyssdaniel.com/2026/01/20/your-inbox-is-a-todo-list-written-by-everyone-but-you/ I created for once a blog post about #Productivity and #Taskmanagement, as I see them often failing with the huge workload nowadays. In the next months, I will create more content on that topic.

Do you remember Foursquare? That app to check in? Today, I met a person I followed for 10 years, for the very first time. She had still Swiss coins at home, and she knew that I’m Swiss. We met at the MTR station to exchange money and talked for 40 minutes. 😀

While I am on the way to my next adventure in the #Philippines, I am posting some screenshots from my newest video. I was walking through Malate, Pasay, and Poblacion. What a great weekend! Amazing people all around. Stay tuned, the video is coming Thursday.
