Is there a #federated system like Pinterest?!
@tnypxl Yeah I was actually considering doing a workshop using my own browser, @agregore, which would also bring a way to create and share content offline and on local networks.
I decided to go with standard browsers because I wanted to support people without access to fancy computers like kids that only have the chromebooks their schools provide them.
Apple-only projects in particular are kinda uninteresting to me since it excludes a lot of people.
Arc is defs cool though!
Oh yeah! Any folks in #Ottawa / #Nepean interested in this stuff hit me up! I'm hoping to run it at the Centrepointe branch.
Also thinking of including signup links for some local #Fediverse instances to build up community.
Sent an email to the library coordinator about running a workshop.
Gonna focus on teaching folks how to use Devtools to mess with websites and create bookmarklets to persist changes.
I wish web browsers had kept built in user scripts as a feature so that everyone could edit their experiences more easily.
Interesting results! I am a "strongly agree".
All software that is going to federate should support ActivityPub. It is the standard for social network federation.
All social software should federate.
Anybody else do this? Sometimes when I'm looking to follow folks who post on a topic, I go to a different server. Most instances allow me to search and browse without an account. If there's a topic-specific instance, I'll find lots of relevant peeps there. Or I can go to a really big instance, which transitively knows more accounts, so I can search over a larger pool. The only annoying thing about this is that I have to copy the handles I find and go back to my instance to follow them.
@symfonystation I was thinking more along the lines of using that site's UI instead of my mastodon view over their data. E.g. even if I can follow stuff on a lemmy instance, I won't see the nice organizing of topics that they have.
It'd be cool if #ActivityPub had a way to log in with your accpunt on another AP server. Like, if I wanted to check out kbin it'd be nice if I could reuse my mastodon account.
Neat! Gonna give it a shot now that it's charged. Hopefully I can actually code with this thing.
We shipped updated Debian packages as well as the prebuilts for desktop users.
One visible new feature is the addition of `env()` CSS variables usable as colors that will match the wallpaper. The extraction is done with https://github.com/Vibrant-Colors/node-vibrant/ and the usable tokens are listed here: https://github.com/capyloon/gecko-b2g/blob/9af2df209d31624643cd167093c6dd7895a6cc80/servo/components/style/custom_properties.rs#L148-L154
The system app and the home screen have been updated to use them, but any web page can also do the same!
wow, I can't believe how big the increase in the quality of life from the setting up this controller with my deck has been so far.
I had a lot of trouble switching between portable and docked mode since I'd lose all the nice controller features they went to keyboard and mouse the. now I can comfortably sit with the controller in my lap and do most of my navigating from there.
way less painful on my fingers too
instead of purchasing new controller or keyboard or whatever I've opted to set up my the old playstation four controller and the bluetooth keyboard attachment for it. what's really cool is that #steam made it easy to get up and running with the touchpad acting as a mouse and the scroll wheel which makes navigating way easier. I also have the same key bindings as I do on my #SteamDeck itself so it's easier to switch between them.
But honestly I think what I really want is the keyboard bindings that Pop OS has for moving and resizing windows.
@Twashe Count your blessings for you are free!
i actually had my account locked for a bit since I was using an alternative client for messenger :P I forgot the password for my recovery email and gave up on the whole thing for like two years or so.
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Yap with me and send me cool links relating to my interests. 👍
