Journo friends! Are there any lovely folks in my network who cover tech or social media? 👀
If so, I'd love to add you to @buffer's PR list! We have some phenomenal, headline-grabbing data studies in the works, which we can give you early access to.
Pop a comment or reaction, and I'll get in touch
Thank you! ☺️
Hilariously, some folks on Pinterest already have, but I'm choosing to see this as a compliment. 😆
Look mom, I'm on @makerstations! 😆
I have been a fan of their site and newsletter for eons, so seeing this live really is a delightful way to start the week.
If you're interested, you'll find a tour of my 'Cosy Library-Inspired Home Office in Cape Town' via the 🔗 below.
Buffer 🤝 Liquid Glass
*swoons*
Buffer for iOS 26 is the biggest update we’ve ever shipped to our mobile app. 👀 More at the 🔗 below.
P.S. Posting Goals with progress rings?! 🤫
Inbox zero is great and all but have you ever achieved
✨ laundry-basket zero? ✨
It's been a little over two years since I spent about 4 full days prepping my application to @Buffer. 🥹
Life lessons from this experience:
1. Anything worth having is worth pouring your heart and soul into.
2. Always, always shoot your shot.
Ooof I know! I literally can't watch it again as a mother. 😓
P.S. She rarely watches TV so that may be a factor in why the scary parts affect her so much. We do Bluey sometimes.
Are there any kids movies out there aren't going to emotionally traumatize my 3-year-old? 😅
We're so keen to have a snuggly movie afternoon with her.
We've tried Frozen, Finding Nemo, and even Winnie the Pooh, which has a really scary start. Don't even get me started on old-school Disney...
This was a brilliant Day 3 prompt from @Buffer's Creator Camp but creating it was... surprisingly cathartic.
P.S. It's not too late to join Creator Camp! If you're looking to build your social media presence and/or personal brand, this is a great way to kick it off! -> https://buff.ly/42ce0NY
Things I'm leaving behind in 2025
- Mom guilt.
- Scrolling on my phone in bed.
- Imposter syndrome.
- Apologizing all the time.
- Finishing books that I’m not enjoying.
- Bulgarian split squats (iykyk)
Me: Has many, many things to circle back on.
Notion: "Hey, did you know you can make your own—"
Me: Drops everything to spend the next hour creating several Notion portraits.

Have you made one yet? It's probably the least functional but most fun Notion feature to date!
At 00:26, peep the new addition to my office. 🥹
I've wanted to buy a walking pad for ages and a bit of Christmas self-love finally made me 'add to cart.'
If anyone else uses these regularly, I'd love some advice on how to get the most out of them!
I got to chat with the incredible @rose.bsky.team this week and it was an absolute delight! 🦋🌹
My most important takeaway (apart from all the great stuff below)?
It's pronounced "at" protocol. Like "Where on the internet are you at?"
Wordplay, even? I could not love this platform more.
I call this portrait, 'Startup, a Love Story.'
Before you ask: yes, we have a Slack that only two of us are in.
And yes: he works in a room about 5 steps away.
(I won't even start on our Notion task manager...)
This was such a wonderful conversation, thank you @rose.bsky.team! Can’t wait to get this episode out into the world. ✨
Hypothetically speaking, if I were to interview one of the folks at @bsky.app on the #bufferchat podcast:
What would you want to know? 👀
Completely hypothetically, of course. *waggles eyebrows*
@buffer.com
Note that this only seems to work on playlist level, not artist or album, so if you're not seeing the option, that might be why.
I cannot even tell you how much this small change has improved my Spotify experience. 😆
A person should not be made to hear Baby Shark more than they have to.
PSA for parents: but did you know you can exclude certain music from your Spotify taste profile? 👀
→ Navigate to the offending playlist (not album)
→ Tap on the three dots underneath the cover art
→ Tap 'Exclude from your taste profile'
Fantastic! I really hope you do find some value in it! ✨
Ooh we don’t but that is actually a brilliant starter pack idea! @oluwatamilore.com @hailley.co
As a long-time Bufferchatter, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the new podcast, @wahibachair.bsky.social, if you have time to listen — along with any topics on your content wishlist. 😄 I'm mapping out the next few episodes at the moment!
Thank you for looping me in here Dave! And great to connect, @wahibachair.bsky.social! Welcome to Bluesky. 🦋
There's a definite possibility of #bufferchat on here — I'll defer to @hailley.co and @lindsayashcraft.bsky.social on that. 👀
The options that might come closest to me are:
- Amazing Marvin (very customizable!) + manual task tracking in Toggl
- Todoist + browser extension connection to Toggl
Anyway, would love to hear wisdom from any willing to share! ⚡️
Some features that are helpful for me:
- Task management with calendar + kanban views
- Productivity tracking (to measure the time I spent on different projects)
- Some sort of backlog system that alerts me when tasks have fallen by the wayside
- Pomodoro/focus mode
Hey #productivity nerd friends!
I'm playing around with my tool stack for 2025 (the equivalent of buying a new planner 💅) and I'd love to know more about the systems folks use on here.
I spent much of the weekend configuring different tools, and I haven't found a system that feels *right* yet.
