Warmed up some today.
Mostly clear skies.
God is good and only does good.
So much pain in this world.
Much of it needless.
Focus on Him who is good.

“In heaven, hope will be realized, happiness will be found, and holiness will be complete. Strangers may wander into the Church, but will not step foot into the throne room of God, Isaiah 35:8.” ─Ed Mathews, Plow New Ground, June 26.

E.M. Bounds said that making prayer a secondary force in this world “is to retire God from the movement. It is to make God secondary.”

Chance of frost here, they say. Chilly, especially considering houses don't have indoor heating.

Suspicious here on #hubzilla that my comments, at least, sometimes, aren't getting distributed into Mastodon. Or maybe just mastodon dot social. Or ... dunno.

That's probably because threads work differently on Mastodon from Hubzilla. Mastodon doesn't know threaded conversations. And Mastodon users only receive messages

posted by actors that they follow
boosted (repeated) by actors that they follow
which mention them

But they do not receive messages that are comments on posts which they've already received.

Let's assume Alice posts something on Mastodon, Bob comments on Mastodon, Carol replies to Bob on Mastodon, Dave replies to Carol on Mastodon and you reply to Dave on Hubzilla.

If this was an all-Hubzilla thread, you'd only mention Dave to show that you're replying to Dave. Your comment goes straight to Alice, and Bob, Carol and Dave pick it up from Alice because they've already got Alice's post on their stream.

But since Alice, Bob, Carol and Dave are on Mastodon, if you only mention Dave, then only Dave will receive and be notified about your reply because you've mentioned Dave. Alice, Bob and Carol will never see your reply because you haven't mentioned them.

So in this constellation, if you want all four to see your reply, you have to mention them all.

Granted, other reasons may be delivery delays on Hubzilla's side, or that enough Mastodon users have muted or blocked you because, from their point of view, you as a Hubzilla user act too disturbingly un-Mastodon-like, and you break Mastodon's unwritten rules left and right.

@Christopher As mentioned below, there are issues between Hubzilla and Mastodon, but I know that people I used to chat with are chatting back, and I don't think it's because they don't like me anymore. :)

@Jupiter Rowland Yes, I've seen discussions about these problems. Seems they've gotten worse ...
Thanks for your comment, well explained.

Installed the Affinity Tool, after leaving it dormant for many moons. Good option.

On that scale, if you got three or maybe four friends around here whose posts don't give you anxiety attacks, and I do, you're doing well.
