TootSDK is now open to the public! 🚀
TootSDK is a Swift package for creating apps that interact with Mastodon, Pleroma and other Fediverse APIs.
It handles the data model and network calls, with lovely async/await based calls.
The SDK is still young. There are plenty of API calls still to add. The foundations are strong, and TootSDK is very useful already.
Contributions and PRs are more than welcome!
Check out the repo here: github.com/tootsdk/tootsdk 🥳

Reminder that whatever you store on an internet site will one day vanish, even if it's stored on the largest and richest site in the world:
"Myspace, the once mighty social network, has lost every single piece of content uploaded to its site before 2016, including millions of songs, photos and videos with no other home on the internet."
theguardian.com/technology/201…
Please don't rely on internet services to exist forever, they will all disappear eventually.
Try to store copies of important stuff offline if you can. Music, video, photos etc can all be stored locally.

It's always morally correct to humiliate, mock, bully, torment and/or ridicule any and all billionaires.
None of them are good. If they want our solidarity they need to stop being billionaires.
They can buy anything they want.
Except our respect.

Celé to začalo v Česku v roce 2013. Stovka mužů se tehdy rozhodla na měsíc přestat pít alkohol. Důvody byly zdravotní: čeští muži se léta drželi na vrcholu globálního žebříčku a pili třikrát víc než světový průměr.Economia, a.s.

"Contact me via mail or XMPP at <single address>" is IMHO one of the best parts of XMPP.
I find it quite awkward to tell people "oh, by mail contact me at address1, if you use Matrix, then you need address2, when you have Signal use my phone number at <number> and when you want to have a meeting with me use that URL at address3!"
Nonsens! Mail, XMPP and SIP enables you to be reachable by a single address. IMHO a big plus!
Exciting times: We are working on conversation view! 🥳🎉

It would be such a cool feature for @MonaApp I hope you will consider it! tweesecake.social/@brianhartge…
I want to pass on something which I learned today. This could be very useful if there are particular Twitter accounts you wish to track, such as news sources, and you're not going to be able to access them as easily in the future.What you will do is use an RSS Reader to obtain the Twitter feed. There are some good RSS Readers around. We have one in our Leasey product which does work with what I am going to describe here, but there are plenty of others, including Tweesecake I believe although I haven't tried it there.
Use the following syntax, where the term, username, represents the Twitter username, such as brianhartgen
Place this into your RSS Reader to validate the URL.

"Brexit is no longer an abstract future goal, where coming benefits can be talked up, while potential drawbacks are dismissed as partisan pessimism. Brexit is now a lived reality, whose frictions and costs are a daily experience, and whose promised gains have not arrived."

I wrote this article on "Accessibility in SwiftUI for Widgets" 2.5 years ago.
It covers VoiceOver, Voice Control, and Display/Text Sizes in terms of adding accessibility support to Widgets.
rryam.com/accessibility-widget…
I am thinking of extending it to Lockscreen Widgets.
Nothing much changes, but I found some great examples you can take inspiration from while adding accessibility support to Lockscreen Widgets.
Apple announced widgets for iOS 14 that you can have on your home screen alongside your existing apps. Widgets help you to personalize the screen with glanceable relevant data upfront.rryam.com

Imagine you live a hundred years.
That's 36,500 days.
Imagine you get to spend 20,000 dollars a day, every single day.
Yup you're a newborn spending 20 k a day, stay with me.
You'd die a 100 years later and you would have spent 730,000,000. That's 730 million dollars.
You'd be very rich, but still would not be able to call yourself a billionaire.
No one "earns" that. No one needs that.
Billionaires should not exist.
