Opened another 500 TestFlight slots for the new Reeder preview (see previous posts). There's still a lot to do but it's slowly getting to a usable state.

@rizzi missed it again! 😖

Can't wait for the release.

The term "the Fediverse" refers to:

@evan I would have said "platforms" I think.

Raise your hand if you’re more excited to build for @Iconfactory Project Tapestry than the Vision Pro 😂🙋‍♂️

@developerjustin @Iconfactory I kinda want a Project Tapestry quilt with various squares for mastodon logo, rss icon, etc... We got any professional quilters out here who want to partner up on the kickstarter? I'll pay the 500$ tier 😁

How many unread Mastodon posts in your timeline before you say “nope, no way I’m reading through all of these”, and just jump to the top of the timeline? (Pick closest answer)

The more I get into the blogging mindset, the less I post on social media. It is really weird, that I gifted so many thoughts of the last over 10 years to a platform owner who made money out of it. That is no more. My blog will stay ad free forever. The only tracking I do is cookie-free and respects the do-not-track-header and self hosted. So I guess @pfefferle and @matthiasott, you were right. Blogging it is.

@MoritzGiessmann @pfefferle @matthiasott I’ve documented some #IndieWeb exploration resources here if you’re interested https://shellsharks.com/indieweb#explore-the-indieweb. That same page has some #webring info too. I also have a #blogroll though for now it just points to my giant list of indie #infosec blogs. Many of those search sites have enrollment forms so you can add your own site.

The ease in which I quit Twitter didn’t surprise me, but how I just up and peaced out from Reddit is wild. I never was a big Twitter user (mostly lurking/consuming) but I used Reddit All. The. Time. I think having faith in the after using Mastodon has helped ease the emotional transition.

Is there a Mastodon hashtag for people who like to tinker with their personal website and just chat about it / ask questions on here? Like, “hey I tweaked my CSS a bit, cool huh?” -kinda stuff.

With so many great apps out there these days, how many Mastodon (or similar, i.e. Firefish, Misskey, etc…) clients do you have installed on your phone these days?

Hey folks! Here’s an (under construction) early-look at an IndieWeb notes (micro-blog / short-form content) feature on my site https://shellsharks.com/notebook. Working on a writeup (eventually) to walk through how/why it was made. Appreciate any interim feedback though!

I see there’s no #indieweb #lemmy / #kbin community. Anyone interested in starting one up? Or maybe there’s another better place (aside from Mastodon) that people thread stuff? I’m happy to start it but kinda new to the whole community as it is. That and I already admin/mod a few #threadiverse communities.

OK, so I finally got around to trying out Stage Manager + External Monitor with my 11in iPad Pro and wow. It’s not perfect but it is insanely functional. I could absolutely use this as a 100% “real” computer replacement. Sure, there are some workflows that are impossible on current iPad hardware/software (e.g. running BurpSuite, virtualizing Windows, etc…) but for daily driving, blogging, research, photo editing/management, even podcasting, it is fantastic. #apple #ipad #blogincoming

#openweb people: "yeah sex is great but have you heard of RSS?"

Why do you care about getting followers? (If it's something else feel free to comment)

I like the hashtag #fedup to describe the more recent trend of people fleeing traditional, centralized, corporate, user-hostile, money grubbing, (…I could go on) services. It works on a few levels, 1. Being fed up with those services and 2. The fediverse being on the up and up!

Both #Ivory and #icecubes are amazing #mastodon clients but I give the slight edge to Ivory right now because of how seamless the timeline sync works. That said, Ice Cubes has some great features that Ivory doesn’t have yet (e.g. full profile metadata viewing, trending search, more swipe options, remote local timelines). Oh and it’s free and open source which is hard to complain about.
