  1. Eleventy shortcode question

    Howdy @eleven_ty pals đź‘‹,

    Does anyone here know how to access page information from within a paired shortcode?

    I’d really like to access page.url in there, but I’m struggling a bit.


    Solved: Mr @Robb0wen is a hero and told me to set markdownTemplateEngine: 'njk' in my eleventy config.

  2. Twitter soft block

    A Twitter pro tip for you this morning.

    If you don’t want someone following you anymore, you can soft block them:

    1. Go to their profile
    2. Block them
    3. Unblock them again
    4. They don’t follow you anymore!   It’s handy for avoiding awkward situations.
  3. Back to Tweetbot

    Moving back to @Tweetbot has improved Twitter 1000%.

    I forgot just how many things I’ve muted on here so it’s a much quieter feed.

    Time to update my mutes with “gatsby” and “microfrontend” et al.

  4. Twitter DMs only app

    ‪Hey pals 👋‬

    I might have been dreaming but I’m sure there was a twitter client that was DMs only and nothing else. Can anyone remember if there is?‬

    I’m going to try to spend less time on here, but I do spend a lot of time in DMs with folks. ‬
