Timely with some of my own posts, Firefox posted on X for the first time since Jan 2025:

We took time off of X, but we’re back. The internet is changing again, so we’re here as an independent voice for our users and the open internet.

Mozilla never stopped posting on their own separate account. I feel like “the internet is changing again” could use a link to a longer blog post. I assume that’s partly about AI, and most AI people are still only on X.

Nice surprise today to see a pair of new Stormlight novellas, outlined by Brandon Sanderson and then written by his pals. From the preface:

A mini-novel about Jasnah surviving in Shadesmar while everyone tried to figure out what was going on with Szeth and the Ghostbloods in the Physical Realm. I eventually decided that the novel worked better without Jasnah distracting us, as I wanted Shadesmar to be a big part of Oathbringer—and it would be better reserved for there.
