Back to #Firefox I go! Multi-Account Containers are a killer #privacy feature that only Firefox (and maybe derivatives) has access to.

There's some helper add-ons to further silo #Facebook, #Twitter, and #Google. (That said, I use my own containers for Google to split my accounts)

Twitter: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firef…

The best way to increase everyone's feed diversity is to go follow interesting accounts on other instances :)

The new 1.33.1 test release of #deltachat_desktop is out now!

We have fixed many of the message list bugs now. If testing shows that this version is stable we will finally release version 1.34.0 🎉

It's a great little game (no, I did not invent it, just coded this instance). And I know the leaderboard can be hacked, LOL. Still fun.

But it only works if you have the current version of Internet Protocol available to you, so not everyone can see it.

If you can’t get it, ask your ISP why.
Bonus points for…
- There is a problem with that web site (nope)
- it has no IP address (it does)
- nobody asks for IPv6 (you are)
- no web sites are IPv6 only (it is)
- IPv6 is very new (old enough to buy alcohol!)
- what’s IPv6? (Current internet protocol)
- we’re planning IPv6 soon (really? When exactly?)
- nobody uses IPv6 (around 50% google access in US is IPv6, and some countries around 75%, and rising)

in reply to Evan Prodromou

this has to be one of the most under-stated introductions I have seen here!

So let me offer a better one: Evan is one of the reasons we are all here. He is credited as one of the creators of the #ActivityPub protocol:
w3.org/TR/activitypub/

Back in the day (a decade ago), he also used to run the biggest instance of #StatusNet, identi.ca. My old account is still there, even though I have lost access to it:
identi.ca/rysiek

StatusNet was the precursor of fedi.

Welcome, Evan!

TO JOURNALISTS: Please don't use Mastodon for private messages. Instead, use an encrypted messenger.

If you want something decentralized, I suggest XMPP or The Matrix.

Good old fashioned email also works.

There's also an instant messenger known as DeltaChat that's based on email protocols, and sends your chats to email—where they can be stored and archived. delta.chat/en/

I've just published version 1.2 of Audioswitch (my Hammerspoon that allows you to manage your input/output devices with global hotkeys). 1.2 adds a few new things: the ability to speak without VoiceOver, and two new hotkeys (control+shift+l and control+shift+cmd+l to list output and input devices respectively. github.com/thequinbox/audioswi…

Před časem jsem naposlouchal audiografii Arnolda Schwarzeneggera a přišlo mi to dost egoistické. Musím ale říct, že naživo je to docela milý chlapík a umí výborně česky.
Potkali jsme se u novinového stánku, kde si kupoval točené pivo a pokecali jsme o #politika
Snažil se získat mou podporu pro svoji komunální politiku, ale celkem neagresivně. Nejsem si jistý jestli pochopil, že jsem člen #pirati

Přemýšleli jste nad domácí fotovoltaikou, ale vlastně o tom moc nevíte? Sepsal jsem své poznatky z dvou let plánování a 2 měsíců provozu. 👇

oh dang @Tusky *does* have the built in list support I've wanted! it's just not immediately clear the way I'd have figured

Written instructions:
- Pull out the left side menu
- Tap "Account Preferenes"
- Tap "Tabs"
- Click the "+" and choose "List"

The only real limitation is you can only have 5 tabs at once, which unfortunately means a maximum of Notifications + 4 lists, or Notifs/Home/3 lists

Please give Eniko a follow, she is the owner of an indie game studio that's LGBT friendly, and is going to very much be affected by Twitter basically imploding:
@eniko

Her studio is publishing Kitsune Games, and has made a lot of rather cool things: kitsunegames.com/, go check them out.

I was grateful for the chance to chat with Time Magazine last week about some the unique ways the collapse of Twitter is impacting its #disabled users. You can read the piece here:

¿Qué cosa mejor que hacer mientras se lava el refri que ponerse la clase magistral de #DarioSztajnszrajber sobre el otro?

Y qué bueno que hay otras tres, porque tengo que lavar el baño y trapear toda la casa

@archos @jakubzelenka ptal jsem se na twitteru jejího oficiálního týmu, ale nikdo o tom nic neví.
Takže to klidně může být časovaná bomba nějakého vtipálka. V tom případě bude odpovědnost adminů těch instancí rozhodnout, jestli ten účet nechaj mluvit.

Pokud je něco z toho oficiální, asi se to objeví na jejích oficiálních webových stránkách včas. Spíš asi vyčkávají, jestli je Mastodon fenomén tohoto víkendu, nebo něco většího...

Hey #nix and #nixos people!

I wrote a matrix bot for nixpkgs pull request notifications.

It‘s like the cool https//nixpk.gs/tracker.html by @qyliss, which shows you which release channels a pull request has reached.

With the bot you can subscribe and get notifications, whenever it reaches a channel instead of hammering F5 in your browser tab.

Just open a query to matrix.to/#/@nixpkgs-bot:maral… and send "help".

Looking forward to you all stress testing it!
