@pluvialgeist I see a "failed" scheduled post, I guess it's this one. I've just tried to schedule a post in 5 minutes from now, let's see what will happen.
Any other #littleFedinauts have any trouble with scheduled posts? This one was supposed to fire yesterday evening but didn't. Just rescheduled to later this morning to see if it'll fire after a reschedule.
Grateful for the Static Blog page ability which LittleFedi includes as an option for Instance Admins to offer their members :
https://littlefedi.org/blogs.html#enable
Borrowing / Extending that ability just a bit brings me to my Feature Request for LittleFedi.
Akin to how LittleFedi can allow Static Blog pages to be generated from regular posts,
And then appear in its own namespace, using mine as an example :
https://littleone.littlefedi.social/@himysyed/blog
My request is to likewise offer the ability for Instance Admins to allow optional Static "Photoblog" Page for members
ergo :
https://littleone.littlefedi.social/@himysyed/photoblog
This is distinct from the "media" button linked from LittleFedi profile pages, as that is a catch-all visual listing.
https://littlefedi.org/blogs.html#contents
On my profile page currently we can see the "Visit blog" button.
My Feature Request includes asking for a "Visit photoblog" button to appear on one's profile, using the same logic as was used in the Static Blog option.
LittleFedi "Photoblog" themes are something that can be created and uploaded via the existing CSS ability, and that would fall upon us, the LittleFedi users, to create and share.

I'll stop here, because my next feature suggestion might build upon this, if it's reasonable.
...oh right, the above photograph, was something I wanted to remember, because seeing someone changing a car tire nowadays is unusual, at least to me. Nothing special about this scene. It's a photo of a moment from my Friday afternoon.
And thus something I wanted to "Photoblog".
So we can quote a post found later on within an existing thread,
And then as a new top-level, first in a new potential thread, post,
Again we see the "[_] Blog post" option appear in the post editor.
So now I can visually begin a new thread, or have it remain as a single post which now also can appear on my LittleFedi Static Blog page.
Very nice.
@himysyed
@himysyed And in conclusion, this is my third and final post capping my first LittleFedi Thread.
My intention was to create a thread,
Then circle back to the First Post in this thread,
Edit that first post and checkmark the "[_] Blog post" radio box,
So it would appear in my LittleFedi Static Blog page :
https://littleone.littlefedi.social/@himysyed/blog
As per https://littlefedi.org/blogs.html
Only the first post atop / beginning of a Thread can also appear on the Static Blog.
Any subsequent "replies", even if it is from myself, cannot become Static Blog Post.
All right, let's see what happens....

First of three "posts" using LittleFedi that I will "thread" together as a demonstration to myself to see what happens...

In NewPipe (Smartphone) it sometimes states that the video wouldn't play as it wants to make sure the app isn't a bot.
Funnily enough, the solution is to switch from WIFI to Mobile Data, then the video will load.
Before playing, I switch back to WIFI to reduce data use via mobile ;)
Smartphone runs with GrapheneOS.
In Freetube (Desktop) it sometimes states that Youtube blocked my domain.
My workaroun is to open the video in the smartphone app.
Most of the time it will play without problems.
I'm not downloading any videos to watch them offline.
@BoysenberryCider@mastodon.social @kerravonsen@mastodon.au
Do you use the original youtube website/app?
I haven't done so in years, I watch all youtube videos, without ads, without algorithmic recommendations via Invidious, FreeTube (Desktop) and NewPipe (Smartphone).

Well, first I configured a futon matress with 10cm height.
However, to me it felt too soft.
I sold it and configured a 6cm futon, with just six layers of cotton, like original Japanese futon were/are crafted.
For me it's perfect, however I don't know if it would suit your needs as well.

@stefano something I've noticed as I'm using littleOne more and interacting with more posts that have content warnings:
Using an interaction button (e.g., favorite, boost, bookmark) collapses an expanded CW'd post.
Thing is, I often interact with such posts in multiple ways. I might favorite, boost, and reply to a post, for instance. It's a bit disorienting for the UI to collapse the expanded post before I've actually finished my full interaction. My preference would be that an expanded post doesn't collapse until I collapse it. (Or at least a setting that gives me the option between auto- and manual collapsing.)
Not a dealbreaker by any stretch, just something to consider.
How do my fellow #littleFedinauts feel about this? Prefer the auto-collapsing for some reason? Enhanced privacy when browsing in public spaces, perhaps?
What a precedent is generated with the closure of #Autistici. It is the same fascism of the last century at full speed, they go for everyone.
Now more than ever, take care, protect others and follow the fight.
BiblioReads (alternative.to GoodReads)
Just found an alternative frontend for goodreads, called biblioreads.
Clean graphical user interface, like I like it.
