I've done some pretty fancy stuff with #CSS in the past, but nothing quite on the level of DOOM Scroll: https://codepen.io/cobra_winfrey/pen/oNOMRav

Sometimes I just can't help myself. My https://deathau.weblog.lol site now has a fediverse "login" — you enter fediverse handle and it will look up your avatar and subscribe link via webfinger, saving those to local storage. Then, it replaces all the links to my friendica instance with links to that same post in your instance (as per the subscribe link).
I just need to figure out how to get the reply/reblog/like counts of my posts in there, too.
Hooray! I've managed to rig things up so that future posts from status.lol post directly to https://deathau.weblog.lol/ This is part of a wider effort to both migrate my website to omg.lol and consolidate my online presence. There is still a lot of work to do in this regard, but this felt like a solid step in the right direction.
(The previous post was supposed to also be a test of my new workflow for adding status.lol posts to my blog, but I messed something up with env variables, so I'm going to use this post to test instead)
I just want to shout out @[email protected] for running a great service with even greater support 👍
Please ignore this post. I'm just testing something. For SCIENCE!
How does one "social"?
Okay. Fastmail is cool.
I've been using it for a while now, but I only just realised that the way I have things set up, not only does it not matter what goes before the @, but I can have an unlimited depth of subdomains. As long as it ends with my domain, I'll get the email.
Does anyone know of a good #mobile #keyboard that I can use hand-held? I want to be able to type on something with actual tactile feedback (I hate touch screen keyboards) but doesn't sacrifice portability by having to set the phone down somewhere while I type.
(My brain seems to be on overload right now)
How do you get motivated for a big, fairly ambiguous task that you really don't want to do?
Why, of all things, does #Bluey know how to press my emotional buttons? I don't even know why I'm getting emotional.
I'm not the kind of person who cares about numbers like likes or follower count. I'm not, nor do I ever aim to be, an "influencer".
But I do kinda wish I had more followers just so I had more people around to help answer whatever random question I have on my mind at any given moment.
An unforeseen benefit of assigning #JohnnyDecimal IDs to everything (and cleanly distinguishing between what I consider "public" and "private" stuff) is that I can refer to private stuff in public without actually mentioning it.
For example, I can complain about how complex [401.12] is and how hard it is to debug, and as long as I don't get into specifics, it's perfectly fine.
Small #JohnnyDecimal update: I feel like I'm using the folder structure in my Obsidian vault as my index. It's a nice foldable tree view, drag-and-drop capable, simple to add, remove and rename stuff...
Maybe I don't need an 00.00 index note / database / whatever...
I've taken a leap and have started organising all the things with a Johnny Decimal system. It's been something I've been mulling over for some time, and with the Johnny Decimal workshop coming soon and an attempt to switch to a new OS, it seems like a perfect time to get organised.

I just thought I'd let you know, based on our Mac and Windows discussions (and various other factors). I've decided to try and "all-in" myself on Mac again. I've downloaded Raycast to try out and set up my Floorp browser with Sideberry (but still considering going back to Arc).
This is still very raw and not looking great or anything, but I'm experimenting with using the #mastodon API built into #friendica to get my #ActivityPub posts and show them on my static #eleventy website.
Because it's static, this post won't appear on it, but it should next time I rebuild.
Eventually, I want to be able to log in and reply, see my feeds, and post directly from my website. Friendica is probably overkill as a back-end, but it's what I have right now.
I'm looking into microblog.pub ( @[email protected] @microblogpub ) again. It just seems so close to where I want to end up. I want my website to also be my front-end to the #fediverse. Microblog.pub basically is that, but there's no real way to add static pages just yet.
I've been playing around with customizing templates and CSS to get the site looking similar to my current home page, and it's working well so far.
So, I like what I see so far of #atproto But I'm not sure if I like #bluesky itself Does that make sense?
... I might still have to wait a few years(!) before it's really ready...
Some random ideas that have popped up are sort of coalescing. Into what, I'm not sure yet. But I fell down a rabbit hole, and this article represents my climb back up. As such, I wouldn't consider this a proper, professional think piece. Just some notes, thoughts and scratchings that I decided to share.
