Good morning, fedizens / fedifriends / masto-mateys 🌅

A reminder on the real #luxuries in life 🙌💞

(This post is for non-Americans.) Folks, it's time to stop agonising over everything the Americans do, and focus instead on building a world that works without them. Let's accept that we can no longer rely on them for anything: trade, global security, aid, medical research, a model of democracy, tech innovation … anything.

Even if the U.S. somehow achieves peaceful democratic transfers of power in 2026 and 2028 — and there are many good Americans fighting hard for that — there''ll be years or decades of cleaning up and rebuilding shattered democratic institutions from the ground up. Write them out of the global script for now and move on.

Has someone already done work to fix the OpenGraph link previews from @gotosocial ? When I share a post I’d like the entire post to be visible from the preview. Not just a generic link with username and my avatar. #gotosocial #opengraph

@Edwin085 it seems it is an hoax https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/01/30/fact-check-story-boy-cardboard-nintendo-console-unproven/4310183001/

So touching.

Dumb question that I was always too afraid to ask:

I know how the #Fediverse and its federation works. It's intuitive and familiar to me; I mean, I even host my own instance.

But I never understood how interaction cross-software is supposed to work. In theory, I can use whatever #ActivityPub software I want and still interact with everyone else. But in practice that just... isn't the case, right?

I mean, for text it's quite simple: I write a short post on #Mastodon and people on #GoToSocial or #Misskey or whatever can see and read that same post and interact with it. They can see my profile and it appears on their instance in their style and with their features.

Even outside of microblogging I still get it. A super-long post on #Friendica or #Diaspora appears on my timeline, too. Their profiles might have more fields than I can see here, but that's fine.

But what's up beyond that?

I can see #Pixelfed posts here, converted into image galleries. But what about the other way 'round? If someone on Pixelfed follows my Mastodon account, they can't see any of my non-image posts, right?

What about #PeerTube and such niche software? I guess I could follow a PeerTube account as a microblogger and see their videos and descriptions in my timeline. Video comments are replies.

But the other way 'round? How are they supposed to interact with Friendica or Pixelfed users? PeerTube doesn't even have a "timeline".

Doesn't that feature disparity undermine the whole idea of the #Fediverse or am I missing something?

I've tried to explain the difference between #smolweb and #smallweb in this blog post:

So, how do you see things?

got a teenage kid? do they use a computer to write, make art or music, code, or anything else creative?

is that computer included in your backup solution?

if not, please back it up.

when I was a teenager, long before cloud backups existed (we're talking the IDE HDD era here), I had a drive failure. I lost 5 years of programming projects. I don't know that anything in there would be useful today, but it was a record of my entry into the subject and two decades later I'm still sad about it.

Good no-nonsense icon pack

BREAKING: we have just completely removed all ads from OSNews. The ad industry sucks, so I've put my money where my mouth is. OSNews is now entirely ad-free, for everyone.

Since this means losing a chunk of income, I would greatly appreciate it if you could support us by becoming a Patreon, by making an individual donation through Ko-Fi, or by buying our merch.

Stay weird, nerds. ♥️

I am sharing with someone a .rtf file with simple calculations and explanatory text. It is mostly edited on #iPad and read from #iPhone. I modify calculations now and then and update the results. All within the same file. So there’s no spreadsheet function involved. Just me and a plain old calculator.

Anyone knows a lightweight and simple #literateProgramming #notebook which runs on mobile? As an alternative something my portable router could run.

@adele hi there. I'd really love to contribute to #smolweb where I can.

I have a static site generator I'm building in bash: https://github.com/davidpeach/lupo. I think it would qualify. 🙂

I'm moving all my stuff off of GitHub in the coming weeks when I get time.

I'm a PHP dev also.

Love smolweb and love Gemini too.
