I noticed that is barely useable with keyboard navigation on iOS/iPadOS. The UI herarchy does not translate into accessible tab navigation. The deepest reachable UI element is the vault switcher menu. There is room for improvement.

@kepano Thanks for reaching out! Appreciate that.
So, there is actually nothing I could rank because tab navigation simply does not function at all. All I can reach with a keyboard is the vault switch menu. It is not possible to navigate the UI via tab/shift-tab keys and arrow keys.

Different areas of UI but also quite important: Scaling fonts, scaling font size of reader separately from UI, scaling horizontal margins of notes quickly and something like a focus-reading mode.

@yuliyan What I mean is which functionality do you find yourself reaching for the most, that you don't use hotkeys or the command palette for?

Definitely would like to improve support for tab navigation.

Note there are several focus mode plugins. Personally I use the focus mode in Minimal theme which can be activated via hotkey/command.

Needed some time to get used to it but I really like @MonaApp 's approach to discovery. A single tab gets you to a certain instance where you then can switch between all its feeds on a second layer. Thus the tree icon. 🌳💚

The only thing I am missing is seeing the hashtag results of the chosen instance. Right now choosing a trending hashtag from a remote instance shows me the hashtag feed of my home instance. Which always leads to the same results.

@MonaApp I can see different hashtags for each instance too. Only, once I open a hashtag, I see the hashtag feed of my own instance (nahe.social), not the one of the remote instance.

When I navigate to mastodon.social on the trending tags tab and chose #somehashtag I'd expect to see the following feed: https://mastodon.social/tags/somehashtag

Instead I see https://nahe.social/tags/somehashtag which is very different.

@yuliyan Thank you for the reply, now I get it. I will see how I can improve that.

@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar

It’s true tho. The only two tools left, that make me stick Adobe Illustrator around. Image Tracer and Recolor Artwork.

Affinity Designer does miss some stuff but relpaced Illustrator in my workflows up to 90%. Main reasons being performance and UX consisency.

What are your thoughts?

For my low-stakes workflow, the best tracing tools are still the Pen and Node.

Sure, if you need to print a photo across the side of a building, auto trace is great, but I find any auto traced images super hard to edit further.

Working in greyscale using Overlay blend mode makes recolouring simple enough, right?

Let's see how this ages: The first Apple device that bridges the artificial gap between iPadOS and macOS will be called "iPad Studio" and use a hybrid operating system that behaves lika tablet and runs mainly iPadOS apps when no keyboard with trackpad is present and runs macOS apps when a keyboard with trackpad is attached.

@yuliyan You forgot to mention the smooth transition between the two thanks to iCloud+ plan.

Now that Apple is forced to open their mobile operating systems for third party devs in an unprecedented manner, can we work on an indie foss podcatcher that does not suck?

yuliyan, to CSS
@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar

If you use Obsidian with the KanBan community plug-in, you likely filter cards by a search term from time to time. Especially on huge kanban boards with a ton of cards.

Here is the problem: By default, non-matching cards are dimmed while matching cards keep their style. I find it visually too cluttered. I’d prefer to only see my matching cards.

Here is my silly reverse-engineered CSS-only solution. Definitely one of my funniest selectors. Works great.

#Obsidian #KanBan #CSS #Markdown

Screenshots of a kanban board coparing the same board before adding the css code and after adding the css code. In the before state the search term #hateit is active. All matching cards light up. All no matchin cards are dimmed. After adding the CSs code the same filter only shows the matching cards. All non-matching cards are gone. Way less visual clutter.

yuliyan,
@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar

@AAMfP Jokes aside, I am easily distracted and need to see what is relevant and only what is relevant at a given point. Also depending on how you handle boards vs. tags. I tend to use as little boards as possible but organize several projects within one board. This is where filtering comes in handy.

Besides work I also utilise kanban boards as item libraries, blog ideas pipeline, bucket lists, etc.

@AAMfP@fosstodon.org avatar

@yuliyan Indeed a huge kanban board... Good luck and happy filtering, then. 😉

Masters of the terminal, which magic spell do I have to type in order to batch-remove the last 12 characters on all files?

Before:
SL370034.JPG.d1709304955

After:
SL370034.JPG

The ".dxxxxxxxxxx" part always consists of 12 characters where "." and "d" are character 1 and 2 followed by ten single digits.

Maybe something like this?
for i in $(find . -type f) ; do mv $i ${i%.*} ; done

I use a dedicated music player in 2024 and hate streaming. Ask me anything.

yuliyan,
@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar

@leandroflac @luciedigitalni The little player on the other side does do nothing besides playing music, thus has all its battery capacity to use solely for this and minor Android routines. Unless you stream, of course. Stand by time is great as it does not compete with other things. Also I can cramp 1 TB of music on there. This is approximately 2048 albums in FLAC. My phone just can't do this.

@yuliyan @leandroflac should have mentioned that i either use headphones or bluetooth to a speaker

Warum die Bezahlkarte für Geflüchtete eine ungerechte und nicht objektiv begründbare politische Agenda ist.

Hier trifft neo-liberale Denke auf Reaktionismus und stärkt vor allem rechtspopulistische Vorurteile.

Given the latest Tumblr scandal, I just want to remind everyone that fedi networks offer everything Tumblr does.

The only thing vanilla Mastodon lacks is long texts and more than 4 images. But there is plenty of (fire)fish in the sea. Don't "miss" a "key" opportunity to unfuck your fandom life. Open software is your friend(ica). No matter what your blogging activity(pub) is. There is an alternative for every pixel(fed) lost on proprietary platforms.

There is this gap between "Ah, fuck it, I am writing my blog in plain HTML" and "The limits of human nature dictate me that I need to use a CMS". And I hate all of it. The two extremes as well as the gap. Nothing is good!

"Inspired by Modernists like Le Corbusier, they planted tall buildings in seas of greenery, which they blended with idea from the Garden City movement about balancing urban and rural spaces. Garden Cities, politically, were meant to be shared in terms of ownership and administration, which fit neatly with the politics of the time and region."

Getting lost with sophistication. A step-by-step journey.

  1. I need some kind of dashboard in my #Obsidian app to help me find common things more quickly.

  2. Ideally I want to build it in HTML/CSS. Canvas supports embedding websites! I quickly build a simple layout with some buttons and save it as .html

  3. While embedding websites is easy, embedding .html files is not supported in the same way.

  4. There_must_be_an_extension_for_this.exe

1/x...

yuliyan,
@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar
  1. There is indeed an extension. Now I only need to install it on my three other devices so I can reach the dashboard from anywhere. And keep them up-to-date. And hope they continue to work in the future...

  2. Realisation that more plug-in dependency is bad.

  3. Frustration. I save the html draft in a Markdown file for later. All of a sudden: Rendered HTML. Facepalm. HTML within Markdown is rendered as HTML. 🤦🏻 No need for plug-ins!

  4. Happyness. Hope. Now what about CSS within Markdown?

yuliyan,
@yuliyan@nahe.social avatar
  1. I found out in a article that you can use frontmatter values to assign a specific CSS file to a markdown note!

Conclusion: Everything I need is supported by Obsidian natively and cross-device.
