I wrote about this on my blog. I like the notion and points made here, but I also think we’re not helping by re-inventing things that already exist, so I’m torn on it. I have been happy with the existing one.

Way cooler than the one I built a few months ago, but I didn’t reuse parts of a Prusa! 😮

Built and using it - lots of fun. https://dev.to/andypiper/getting-arty-with-a-pi-3dk9

I think forcing all posts to be opted-in to the search, and depending on users to opt-out, would be far more controversial? Either way, the user does get to control this within the platform.

There’s also a really nice deep dive into the updates here.

I wrote a blog post about using Postmarks and contributing to the project https://andypiper.co.uk/2023/09/11/bookmarks-in-the-fediverse/

At the moment it is explicitly designed as a single-user implementation, although I’m sure it could be pivoted to become multiuser. I’ve simply set up my own on Glitch and it is working great! -> https://pipesmarks.glitch.me/

For what platform?

I’ve been enjoying the first couple of episodes of Strange Planet on Apple TV. I wasn’t sure they could translate a comic strip into something that runs 20(ish) minutes, but it has had me laughing a lot.

Oh, and listening to Messy, the new album from Cindy Alexander. She did a super intimate (audience of 3, me being one of them) livecast the other night, it was really nice.

Also: they remastered the Lush albums? I’ll have to check that out.

understandable! No problem, just thought it could be useful, but realise you should make those choices carefully.

You can use the Graze browser extension that will help with this.

This is hilarious and I am here for it. They can’t pay their bills, can’t imagine they have funds to get a legal case together.

This is lots of fun!

tl;dr the Fediverse is not great at UX of the cross-instance stuff, yet.

There’s a browser extension to make cross-instance user following simpler on Mastodon (Graze); that means you can just click to follow a user from your home instance, on any Mastodon instance. I think the same concept could be modified to apply to subscribing to Lemmy communities between instances.

I think this is more of a general Lemmy issue than something specific to Lemmy.world, but I agree with your point that this should be easier!

this is the best :-)

Currently playing Boltgun, because I’m an ageing W40K fan from the 1980s :-)

Works for me (now - I had been trying to login via email rather than username, which caused a weird success but then error message)

As of recently, I am officially helping Mastodon with developer relations and documentation! I also do some promotion / writing and speaking, and other work with the MicroPython project - and the Awesome MicroPython list. Beyond that, I offer a bunch of drive-by pull requests to smaller projects that I use, when I can!

I’m a supporting member of the EFF, PSF, and OSI (I ran the OSI booth at State of Open this year), and I am an ambassador for OpenUK

Thank you for OctoPrint! I love it!
