🆕 blog! “The Fediverse of Things”
One of the most frustrating things in modern technology is the effort spent trying to artificially restrict abundance.

What are folks using for subscribing to #email #MailingList software? We basically want something to manage email signups which we can use with an API to send out emails to everyone. Ideally they should be able to unsub if they want. We'd want to be able to send either html or markdown via api.
Bonus points if the tool can subscript to an ActivityPub actor. :P
@fleeky Unsure about details. I am currently visiting upstate NY and everything is covered. Ottawa seems to be getting power outages and stuff
My favorite @agregore feature is the built in "Reader Mode" which makes it easier for me to read articles without all the random styling and page sizing assumptions websites add.
@vetehinen Yeah just found that after digging around too 😭 Why bother announcing that there's federation even if it's so locked down :L

K, I'm thinking of following some bluesky accounts via https://fed.brid.gy/
Anyone I'm already interacting with here wanna link me their bsky accounts so I can see more of their stuff?
@fleeky @390a5738b56da18489cc672da7c2654904096b560ca5ec0581f87c9762f760dc They're on Nostr and following you through a bridge
Honestly reframing goals and problems has been one of these super powers for managing stress for myself
@fleeky I have an "ultrawide" monitor so I place the "main thing" in the middle and more "reference" stuff in the corners. I make a lot of use of overlap and having multiple windows open (~12).
@yasser No, I'm using Chimera OS :P
@fleeky I don't like tiling window managers. I like having a way to spatially organize stuff and they get in the way of that.
CL meta
@evnnbd TBH I don't think I'd want to do any applications in CL still. I'm actually using JS for my transformer/tracing tool since it's fast and flexible and has a lot of libraries. I think the only thing I like about CL is how simple syntax is. 😅 If I was an emacs user I'd likely want to use lisp more. Likely in the future I'll be messing with Guile via spritely goblins though.
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Exploring what a local-first cyberspace might look like in my spare time.
