@boris I was thinking of doing something closer to #Pidgin / #libpurple where there are existing data sources and you make them available behind a standard API and interface. I'm thinking socials, chat, events, wikis.

@boris Yeah defs not saying people shouldn't go the wasm route. More that I only see that direction and almost non of the other. I think the closest I see is Solid data pods but that still leaves much to be desired IMO (e.g. efficient querying, general DX).

A big caveat is the data should be queryable. I feel like GraphQL made some progress back in the day but there wasn't enough standardizing on UIs and reusing schemas. It ended up just being used by servers and single app specific UIs.

While some folks are trying to move towards "Lets put everything into WASM and WebGPU" I wish more folks would move towards "Lets put everything into standard data formats and let users bring their UI to the data more easily".

@hank Very relevant, ty :)

@danie10 Honestly I might make my own thing instead. Been toying with this app I wanna make that will combine all my information sources in one place and make then queryable in a coherent interface.

Low key miss the default mail and calendar apps that came with Windows 7. I think that was my peak in terms of email management.

You know I'm kinda hard on Thunderbird, but so far it's been way more stable (and memory efficient) than Evolution and KOrganizer which is what I used before.

@makeworld I should get a paywall detector into my AP client or skmething :P

Yeah I think I am an "Own over rent" person in most aspects of my life.

Oh no, I think I want a petabyte of storage at home 😵 Like I want to have multiple copies of wikipedia locally to perform various data transformations on, but I'm so limited by space. If abytbing I can let the conpute run for stuff like that over a week if needed but I just don't want to deal with doing this stuff in the cloud. I think I hate subacription services and just prefer upfront stuff I can have forever?

Love through sacrifice is such a self defeating approach when you are outside of a life or death environment. The sacrifice gets mistaken for love inside and otber forms of loving can be so easily forgotten and the sacrifice may not always feel like love to the reciever in the first place.

Really liking the new spongebob game. Reminds me of the fun parts of crash bandicoot on the ps1 with some of the fun exploration of spyro. Honestly platformers are some of my fave titles to this day.

goal for the weekend: get hotpot with the polycule 🥰
