As a European, you just need 3 mute words this year. One starts with B 👴, the other with T 👴, and I use an optional C 😷

That’s actually makes things very good and easy.

@alexandra gotta say, I have never consumed news from TV, hardly even from sites — I am ignorantly in the dark about a lot (a character trait), but sometimes someone tells me, which is good enough… or I come across it in a feed.

I would have happily paid for the Arc browser even a few months ago, but they’ve gone so ‘tech bro’ recently with their cringy videos about another £50m VC cash infusion etc and boring AI fluff that I’ve just stopped using it entirely at the moment. Just need a browser to get stuff done in, I don’t need an ‘internet computer’ or whatever buzzword guff is being spouted this week.

@andyn I always thought they were bootstrapped. But now with VC funding... well... shame.

As I said... such a shame.

Doing some more server maintenance this morning — you'll see random services up or down for a few minutes ✌️❤️

OK, now having the rest of day off (until night hits). Hopefully everything is working melted butter smooth again 🫠

Ah shit, I messed up with Scribbles. Sorry for the downtime. Won't happen again! Working on it.

I’m currently listening to the audiobook of Stephen Kings Needful Things. I don’t think I’ve struggled this much to get through a King book before. It’s really not hitting at all.

@andyn My wife told me that the early King books were super great, but now he's lost his touch over the years.

Sorry, but I broke some stuff on Scribbles this morning, and only realised 30 minutes afterwards. All fixed. Only affected blogs with Tinylytics enabled and when you would land on an expanded post homepage or post page 😬

vincentritter,
@vincentritter@social.lol avatar

@maique 👍 Yeah, sorry. It only happened if you have kudos enabled. I fixed a bug, but also broke something at the same time, to do with hostnames. All great now.

@maique ... hmm, all your eggs in one basket. Hope I don't turn into a monopoly 😋

The new compliance information you need to supply to appear on the App Store because of the Digital Services Act makes me want to stop selling apps. 🙃

@chrishannah Yup, I don't like it — so I'm gonna keep pushing TestFlight updates if I can... if not — there is always the web to concentrate on.

I started a new informal blog about some code stuff. Basically things I find useful, or find, whilst working on my projects — mainly for me to search for stuff later on in life when I forget. Good for "behind the scenes".

Vincent is Coding.

It's a new domain, so might not resolve just yet 😬 https://vincentiscoding.dev

Drank a beer and bought 2 domain names. So I don't know if that's a problem with alcohol or domain names 🤷‍♂️

Added support for status.lol to Scribbles. Just head on over to your blog settings and add your "address" in the "status.lol & shoutouts" section. Shoutouts will come next week I reckon. Both will show in the footer.

@vincentritter@social.lol avatar

@andyn I'll put it on my list to add.

@chrishannah "I’m no longer a die-hard Apple fan" — count me in. Since Steve Jobs passed it really got worse for me, just took me a while to see.

I'm really sad that Apple made one of my favourite emojis "gender neutral" 😕 Instead of just giving me an option to choose it, if I wanted, which is the right thing to do if you're "neutral" about these things. But this isn't right at all. Makes me sad. Give me a choice and don't take it away from as a choice. Might as well make any "gender" emoji neutral in that case.

vincentritter,
@vincentritter@social.lol avatar

Before they changed it, we had so much choice, doesn't matter how you identified (I am traditional in these things).

I wish they kept them as choices and include the new style ones as options instead.

So much personality lost.

"During the weekend I added the ability to surface unique hit data, or as some call it, unique sessions."

— Unique hits data on the Tinylytics Update Blog

And to say it again... I finally added unique session/hits data to the dashboard 😋 https://updates.tinylytics.app/post/unique-hits-data-p9vylmix

Scribbles Explore is now available for anyone, no matter if you have an account or not. This was by design at the start, just so I could gauge how it will look like. Have a look and see what people are writing about 😀 https://scribbles.page/explore

progress:

  • ✅ Fetching of RSS, Atom, and JSON feeds
  • ✅ Connect to Mastodon accounts

Next up:

  • Cross posting

@robb Will you have an API to add feeds? That would be kinda cool. Not a must really, just asking. Probably overkill anyway.

vincentritter,
@vincentritter@social.lol avatar

@robb Nice one! I am thinking of linking to it straight from Scribbles for people that want to cross-post — but having an API would allow me to add it automatically... but tbh, you could just copy the feed URL really. But having an option where to post to would be COOL (via API).

vincentritter,
@vincentritter@social.lol avatar

@robb You know my email. Full of ideas here 😋
