Why is it so difficult to select text in a toot on mobile without first having to click on the toot 😞 makes translating text really difficult

ruud,
@ruud@mastodon.world avatar

@dwarf There is a translate feature in Sharkey...

@ruud@mastodon.world avatar

@dwarf Yep, under Settings > External settings you need to specify a DeepL key

What kind is this?

@matt
I use the 'Seek' app for that. It can recognize animals and plants from photo or camera. https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/seek_app

Yeah I recently switched from iPhone to Samsung and I keep forgetting I can just select a part of the screen and it will do a search

Hi @ruud

Are you aware, that the notes search function doesn't work on Sharkey.world?

@anders
No I wasn't aware, thanks for letting me know. I will look into it

ruud,
@ruud@mastodon.world avatar

@anders @ruud I have been looking into this, and it seems it sometimes fails. Often a retry will work. Doesn't depend on the word you search for. I'll look into it further.

Alrighty..! I think I got it all ready for the migration πŸ€”

  • New server within local (mstdn) network
  • Setup new Mastodon server that's ready for a database import

On new server:

  • Smaller main server
  • Scalable volume for database
  • Scalable volume for search db
  • Scalable volume for extra backups

Now I'm waiting for a good moment to power down Mastodon, start backups and wait for that until that backup can be reimported on the new server via the volume!

Good morning friends and family! Happy Hump day! We lost power in the lab last night so we were done at 10. It looked like quite a large area lost power. So we will have a ton of work this morning. I hope everybody has a wickedly awesome day! Be kind! Peace, Love and Harmony

@weherdt Goodday Bill!

After 15 years of using an iPhone, I'm considering switching to Android. I've ordered a cheap Samsung just to try it for a while before buying a top-end model.
Let's see if I can get used to it.

(I'm also a Mac user so there will be some trade-offs..)

I really like the Busycal iOS app, does anyone know a good #Android alternative? It syncs with my calendar & tasks on Nextcloud.

@loke
That sounds very cool, I'm gonna try that!!!

Those wanting to try out an alternative to Mastodon, you're welcome to create an account on https://sharkey.world. #Sharkey has a very different layout, but most of the same features as Mastodon, and many features Mastodon hasn't. Just see for yourself, and it's fine to either use it as a second account, or you can decide to migrate your current account to it, if you really like it.

@raro
I just started using android and Aria looks nice. Need to test it some more.
