This should be the default in #git

[branch]
sort = -committerdate

Adding it to your git config will make the command git branch sort by last used branches instead of alphabetical. No more trying to remember what I called that last branch!

There used to be a way to slow the home feed, but it’s moving too fast to even read a post or find it again when past. Or even time to click it.
Any tips or help here appreciated. Using the browser version.

Hello community! I am in need of some and for collaborative whiteboard that:

  • don't require sign in for invited people to collaborate: like uploading images and adding/editing text
  • can be saved on your computer or on a repository
  • can be shared as link (view only - even from self-host)

and last but very important:

  • has a good privacy policy.

🙏

Did you know you can easily search through your own Mastodon posts?

Just include from:me in the search field.

Instead of this, you can include in:library to show posts you have interacted with or written yourself.

If you want to search through posts of a specific user, include from:username (the full username, including the instance)

If it doesn't work, have a look at this:

A follow-up post regarding the Mastodon search tips:

If the search options don't work, the reason might be that your Mastodon instance maintainer hasn't implemented Elasticsearch.

Also important: do not use capitals anywhere in the search conditions. E.g.: "From:me" doesn't work.

matdevdug, to Europe
@matdevdug@c.im avatar

A lot of are nervous when traveling to . They’re worried about being judged or whatever. As someone who just waited in line with a ton of American tourists, here’s the number 1 thing you can do to stand out less in Europe.

Stop scream talking. The volume Americans talk at is frightening. Try whispering, then go like one step above that. That’s normal talking. If I can hear your entire conversation from 10 feet away, that’s too loud.

Need to make a phone call? Put the phone up to your ear and talk into it at that one step above whisper volume. Never ever ever put the person on speaker and then scream into the bottom of your phone. My jaw dropped as not one but two people coming to Denmark from California started doing this inside of a coffee shop. Not old people, people in their 20s.

Never fucking do this anywhere. For any reason. Unless your hands are like trapped by a car wreck and it is the only way to talk to emergency services. It’s not just rude it’s downright offensive. I cannot have a normal volume conversation with an employee because you are screaming about what bar you are going to.

#MastoTips for the #MastoNewbie:

Did you know, Fedi has it's own version of Reddit called Lemmy?

And the best part, it's federated! It's a LITTLE janky, but it works pretty well!

I found this very helpful article to show you how interaction between Mastodon and Lemmy works!

As someone who spent a few cold Michigan winters in a house without running the electricity to save money, let me share some quick tips to folks experiencing -17 C weather.

  • set up a tent in a room connected to a bathroom and try to stay in it as much as possible. I bought a cheap 4 season tent used off Craigslist but it looks like Amazon has a ton for under $200.
  • wool socks and hats are your best friends
  • plastic wrap on the windows is a godsend but also hang blankets over the windows
  • seal off the house as much as possible.
  • get cheap tights, cut the legs off, fill them full of socks and use them to block the drafts under doors
  • if you have a second floor and it’s well insulated that’s gonna be your best bet
  • be very careful of any propane heater and always have a tested carbon monoxide detector in that room with you.
  • get a digital thermometer. You are shooting for as close to 18 C as you can get. Below 13 and you need to run a heater for a bit
  • contact the power company. I got a $300 credit for the winter that helped a lot.
  • if you are having trouble hitting 18 C during daylight then older folks, kids, pets etc shouldn’t be there. Younger adults in good physical condition should be fine but consider it a warning sign.

Clicks — a physical keyboard for iPhone! https://www.clicks.tech/ This is awesome! But a little expensive.

abouadil, to mastodon French

Quelle instance francophone choisir sur Mastodon ?
Demande de conseils/tuyaux 😊

Quand je suis arrivé sur Mastodon il ya un peu plus d'un an maintenant, je n'y connaissais strictement rien et j'ai ouvert un compte sur la première instance que j'ai trouvée où j'ai pu le faire, en l'occurrence mastodon.social.

(Par la suite j'ai ouvert un deuxième compte sur une instance dédiée aux esperantophones esperanto.masto
host)...

Leaving a tip at the end of a meal in a restaurant is a customary practice to most Americans, but few diners are familiar with its history or its continued impact on workers.

So, in order to follow a hashtag, must I download an app or access the desktop function?

Does anyone use the Dice Camp app on their phone?
