I'm very busy this week, but I'm thinking about switching my code editor to vim or nvim. Writing a blog post using full code editor feels like overkill for me.
Ping for progression
@ShaulaEvans@zirk.us I agree, and have moved that spirit into irl situations. I will interrupt someone that tries to tell me what their job is in an introduction. I always tell them that I don't care how they sell their body, I want to know what they do and what they think. Then I give examples like crochet and are aliens real.
Going to see what happens if I make a root post for a movie watch-a-long here and reply from my usual account. Hopefully it behaves.
The post composer for littleFedi is one of the most exciting Fedi developments I've seen since I first came here some years ago. I love the granular self-destruct, the scheduling, and I'm especially excited to try that "Blog post" setting soon. Kudos to @stefano for bringing something new and exciting to the Fediverse 👏
I'm reminded that light is a physical thing when I step out of my house into the blazing sunlight of a clear summer day and feel the weight of the sun on my skin. I am again awed that a source of light and heat 150 million kilometers away can burn me 🤯
@stefano I'm doing weird things to find the edges. Here's one. If I take a quote post and then turn it into a blog two observations:
- The first line is treated as the blog title, which in this case was just one line and it got cut off. This makes sense for how blogging needs to work but an observation.
- The blog post retains no connection to the original post being quoted. While there are a lot of considerations around embedding any of that content, I do think it should post a link to the original post in the blog as a top level metadata type field. What do you think?
@kasperd@westergaard.social absolutely!
It's as if algorithms by themselves aren't bad but malintent, opaqueness, and blaming algorithms as a way to disavow responsibility is!
@stefano @fiend_unpleasant very unfortunate indeed. I don't think the tech Bros have copted the magic wand yet 🪄 (not making suggestions by the way, I'm sure there are much better icons)
@fasnix I know. Inertia to get people to change is huge.
But if you build it, they will come...

@stefano @fiend_unpleasant hahaha I wonder if younger folks would understand why a VCR cassette 📼 is the perfect catch-up emoji!
@shom @fiend_unpleasant Anyway, that's the "magic" icon. It's so sad that something like "magic" is now associated to AI 😔
@fiend_unpleasant @stefano fantastic indeed!
Unfortunately ✨ icon is tainted, I was going to provide feedback around that too. The pin icon also took me a little bit to figure out, kinda looked like a 🌲 and something else 😬
@esoteric_programmer@social.stealthy.club in theory, that's not needed. it should be reachable. but doesn't strictly need a domain. everything is managed via keys.
