Tried off and on to record a screencast demo of something in Micro.blog this afternoon, but the dog kept barking or I made mistakes that would be confusing… Eventually I decided the video wasn’t even that helpful and scrapped it. Should’ve just written a blog post.

@manton I'd love 2023's "should have been an email" to be "should have been a blog post".

@MitchW I just use QuickTime Player to record and iMovie for editing. My needs are simple these days.

@manton I need to do quick instructions for a couple of apps. Might do video.

@manton I come from a photo/video journalism background and I have been known to overdocument with media, what simply could've been explained in a few paragraphs of text with proper referencing...

🤦🏾‍♂️ Way too many times to count...

Very nice! Not for me, though--self-hosting is a showstopper for me, and I'm happy with micro.blog + Mastodon + Tumblr + Facebook.

@MitchW Ugh, that was meant for another thread. Doesn't seem to be a way to delete it.
