YouTube help, boosts ok 

@yuki2501 If you have an Android device, NewPipe is a great client.

@j3rn I'm probably going to add smtp and the such as protocol handlers in Agregore and go from there :P

github.com/AgregoreWeb/agregor

@j3rn honestly I might just make my own client at this point

@iitalics dns cant be that hard its literally just cache invalidation and naming things

Any graphical apps out there that support the system that aren't based on Kontact? I find it uses like 2 gigs of ram when idle for no reason I can see.

Tried using Evolution but it keeps getting GNOME related errors on Steam OS and it's Plasma UI. Others seem to rely on GNOME features too or are proprietary 😭

visualizing both the origin of data and the interconnectedness of data seems like a hard to challenge.

have you tried drawing up some interface ideas already?

maybe having two modes where you start by exploring the data as is but then can toggle seeing where the data comes from and a separate network graph for interconnected peers be useful

There is no honor in making others struggle solely because you did. Persevering through difficulty is worth celebrating, but is often worth even more if you can lessen the burden for those who come after you, especially those less fortunate, less privileged. That way lies glory.

@technobaboo Love em! When they were first released I was like "Whoa, you can do that?!"

Sadly I haven't had a chance to use them in my projects since I'm usually interfacing with other libraries that have their own opinions on serialization.

@hanbzu There's a lot of approaches with different tradeoffs and I like exploring what folks have done and seeing how it applies to my work. :) Especially when it comes to stuff like content addressing or schemas. Just something I've had to dig into a lot throughout my career.

@cblgh it's fun! I' actually wearing my Rokid Max now so I can do some work on my steam deck in the park.

I'm generally not a huge "fan" of things but I like to imagine that people care about what movie is "the best" about as much as I care about approaches to data serialization.

it's really hard to talk to folks about my interests 😬

Wish I could set my mastodon timeline on "shuffle" so I could see stuff accross all time or engagement levels :o

@jonny eh, I generally look like an alien when I go out so I usually don't care as much. Also! Putting them over your chest or or your back is underrated 🥰

@jonny bruh I walk around with at least one or two fanny packs on. I have specialized ones for different occasions :P

K... what if... native apps but open data models with interop.

I have no opinion on the technical feasibility of “web environment integrity” but the weaselly justifications of it are offputting enough in themselves.

“Users want advertisers to know that they are real humans” — no, *advertisers* want to know that users are real humans. But nobody would find that persuasive because everyone rightly hates ads on the web, so it's clumsily reframed as being in the user's interests.

Alt-text is really a big cultural differentiator for Mastodon. Twitter has it, but it's pretty rare to see people use it. Threads doesn't have it at all! And with regards to scicomm specifically, it's a perfect example of how accessibility improves the experience for everyone. I can break down a dense, hard to understand figure that people with vision would still find confusing. To me, alt-text is a non-negotiable requirement of good science communication.
