Designers, do you want to learn about accessibility (you should)? I'm running a new session of my workshop with Smashing Conference next week. It's online, 4×2h, twice a week.

And, since budgets are tights at the moment, we decided to offer a 15% discount for "last minute participants". Here's the link with the discount: https://ti.to/smashingmagazine/online-workshops-2022/discount/welcometomyworkshop

@stephaniewalter Thanks for the discount, I just got a ticket for my new designer. He's excited and I'm excited for him

Wow, 450+ people registered to my talk on accessibility with TestingTime today, I might be a little nervous. Also, I've prepared a surprise for participants: a brand new printable A4 mini checklist! This is going to be a nice session!

@stephaniewalter Unfortunately I missed it and can no longer register, do you know if the recording will be available in a format other than the Zoom recording? Thank you!

anybody have thoughts on raindrop vs omnivore vs something else for bookmarks*?

currently i try to save links manually in obsidian, which means i often don't save links because of the energy it takes

(*bookmarks can also be temporary for the purpose of "read later", in the style of pocket)

superterrific,

@hi_mayank I have accounts with both Omnivore & Raindrop & am currently using Omnivore daily, probably because I started it using it first.

Generally I really like Omnivore, super easy to save & categorize links. Nice integration w/Omnivore. I don't love that there's no export to CSV option, and the attitude in Discord is pretty much "just use Omnivore or the API".

Raindrop has more flexible export options + IFTTT integrations, which might make it a better option for non-techy people.

superterrific,
@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@hi_mayank I also prefer the browsing and reading UI of Omnivore. They're similar though, and I haven't given Raindrop a real go as a daily driver.

superterrific,
@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@hi_mayank you're welcome!

I just looked in Discord and found this:
"Hey this is an interesting way of doing it. We actually do have an OPML API also but we haven't exposed it on the web, just because I don't think our handling of lots of RSS feeds is great yet."

Commented on a PR for import OPML handler:
https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore/pull/3836#issuecomment-2076015518

Seems like there's interest!

superterrific,
@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@hi_mayank one thing I forgot to mention about Omnivore that I don't love, they have an active "ai-ideas" channel in their Discord. That's one of the reasons I decided to look at Raindrop tbh.

Today I noticed this:

https://pkm.social/@omnivore/112418063923128099

I'm not concerned at the moment, but something to note.

@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@cory @hi_mayank yeah, not a great sign

superterrific,
@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@hi_mayank @cory thought you might want to know.

I'm already 500+ saved articles in so I'm gonna stick around for awhile. But yeah, really bummed to see that. At least I do weekly extract and could probably easy move to Raindrop (unless they're doing some AI nonsense too?)

@rachsmith Raindrop bookmarking app says it offers full text search for PDF and EPUB with a pro plan.

https://help.raindrop.io/using-search/#full-text-search

I only have the free plan, so can't confirm. I use Omnivore for bookmarking, but they don't offer full text search for PDFs, and no indication that it's on the roadmap in their Discord. They do have a great Obsidian integration though!

Rooting around looking for something else I found this old Zip 250 drive, probably a bit more than 20 years old. Looks like it has a SCSI port 👀 in addition to the USB.

Might have to see if it still works, I have some disks. I also have some Syquest disks around here somewhere, but pretty sure I don't have the drive anymore.

#RetroComputing

The back of the Iomega Zip 250 drive with a power and USB cable attached. There's also what looks to be a SCSI port.

I’m trying out Pixelfed : @rknightuk

Need to think about how I want to pull that data into my site but it’s nice so far. If you’re on there, let me know so I can follow you.

superterrific,
@superterrific@mastodon.social avatar

@robb I'm at @superterrific

I'm lazy and bad at JS so I pulled my Pixelfed images in via RSS using this post from @raymondcamden
https://www.raymondcamden.com/2022/03/08/including-rss-content-in-your-eleventy-site

End result is on the homepage here:
https://danabyerly-junkdrawer.website/

If you use the API I'd love to read a post about it!

@robb 👍🏼

Just took a look and the images aren't loading. Checked it on multiple browsers to make sure it wasn't me, here's what I'm seeing...

Table layout, links written with document.write 😂 but it's a 20 year old site still out there! @zachleat

Their music has held up too IMO

Added @zachleat's Snow Fall component to the homepage on both of my sites ❄️

Easy to implement and customize. One has full page snow and the other has hero snow. Both have light and dark mode flake colors, both have flake size and frequency that differ from the defaults.
