2023-03-08 14:04:14 +0000 UTC*iPhone / Entry Level* - It was mentioned that folks didn't think of Apple as having an entry level phone, but in my view the iPhone SE is a fantastic entry level at $429, formerly $369. Usually during its first release it has the newest processor, So the current has the iPhone 13 processor. Again, I think a fantastic value for what you get.

2023-03-08 12:52:55 +0000 UTC*MASTODON* - So I get the Medium perk of a Mastodon instance. But I'm not a super Mastodon ninja yet!? So this being the Fediverse, which I hear paralleled to email. If I already had a Mastodon account on a nother server, is this like getting a new email address? That seems a bit frustrating unless I wanted to move my Mastodon account from my old server to this one, assuming I got the perk. There's no dual-citizenship in the protocol / service yet? right?
