YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP...THIS PARTICULAR MEDIOCRE, UNREMARKABLE, WHITE TECH DUDE IS SO FUCKIN FRAGILE THAT HE'S THREATENED BY USERS BROADCASTING TO THE COMMUNITIES, THAT THEY'VE BUILT, WHERE TO FIND THEM ELSEWHERE BECAUSE OF HIS OWN ERRATIC, CHAOTIC, UNHINGED BEHAVIOR help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-…
#JohnMastodon is proof that things *CAN* go viral here on Mastodon, but the key is that *YOU* are the algorithm. The reason that the John Mastodon meme showed up on other people's timelines is because so many users boosted the posts.
The lesson here is: please don't just favourite something if you really enjoyed it; BOOST it so that other people can enjoy it, too! This is the only reason why I bother to create as large a social graph as I can on Mastodon—to act as an amplifier. You can, too!❤️😉
Free speech really should be free. To bypass the new censorship regime at twitter, use this URL shortener to link to Mastodon or other censored destinations
On Sunday, during the World Cup, Twitter officially banned its users from linking to their profiles on other social media sites like Mastodon, Facebook and Instagram. Mentions of other platform handles are also now banned.
He already lost more then 1/3 of his wealth, I can't wait for it to go even lower. He will survive and won't really see the difference, but we all know his ego will burn him down
@gloopsies It's been utterly fascinating to watch him go from a relatively well-liked billionaire to one of the most hated people in the world while losing his wealth
Does fancybox add-on currently support displaying the image description (more formally, the content of the "alt" attribute of the img tag), and if yes, how / where? If no, do we want to add it?
I am not sure what you mean by "grabbed from /photos/one/image/ID". I checked a few posts with images and their source uris, they all are from various locations depending on the origin of the post. For Friendica post the uris of the images are most frequent in the fromat: "instace url"/photo/"32 chars hash"-0.jpg
Can you elaborate your issue in more detail please? Thank you.
Hmm including bbcode as code to be displayed in the bbcode "code" tag seems not work too well. Here again, but I replaced bbcode's square bracket with round braces to be able to displays it: (img=https://loma.ml/photo/2191399142639ee5009eea5694130000)Fediverse(/img)
Thank you for clarification. I affirm that fancy box is not triggered there, but image neither displayed directly. On my instance, clicking on an image creates some kind of gallery, allowing me to browse through the images:
Do you expect that fancybox is triggered when you would click on the camper image in my screenshot?
@one Well have a look at the image gallery on my friendica (friends.brockha.us). You'll notice, that my images are loaded in fancybox there already. 😉 As there is no hook it is not possible to do that from an addon. I use a patched frio theme for that. :)
Ich verstehe. Tatsächlich hatte es mich bisher nicht gestört. Ich fand es im Gegenteil sogar praktisch, um die direkte URL des angeklickten Bildes zu bekommen oder es mir (wieder) irgendwo abzuspeichern. Aber das ist ja nur meine "Vorliebe". Über den aktuellen Stand, bei dem Du schon so durch die Bilder klicken kannst, noch Fancybox darüberzulegen bei einem Klick auf das gerade angezeigte Bild halte ich für unangemessene "Doppelfunktion". Ob es technisch aber möglich wäre Dir dies als Option des Fancybox Add-Ons zu ermöglichen müsste Die @Grischa fragen. :)
Ganz im Allgemeinen finde ich, dass wir noch einiges an Verbesserungen im Umgang mit Medien auf Friendica in Zukunft einführen können.
Yes it is possible. I added this to version 1.05 (found in my repository already). I copy the alt and title attribute of the original image to the fancybox image after opening the popup now. So you'll have a mouse over info the way you had it on the original image. I will open a pull request for that change too, shortly.
P.S.: I would assume, that blind people don't use fancybox, but maybe I am wrong and so we have a solution on that (maybe) minor problem. :slightly smiling face:

I think it is not on us to decide it, and I am convinced by the slogan "a good inclusion measure is beneficial to anybody".
To be honest I got very quickly used to read the descriptions by myself since I often find it interesting how people describe their content and in some rare cases it helped me to understand what I "see" on the image in the first place.
That's true and is the same for me.. :laughing: About blind people: Of course it is not on us to decide. I thought more about it being logical, that you don't need an extra popup of an image you don't see (and found all informations in the post already).
This year's FIFA world cup has audio description that can be listened to from anywhere in the world. To access it, grab the FIFA interpreting app on Android or iOS, and enter Lusail's code ADCLUS as the event code. English and Arabic commentary can be chosen. #accessibility
Photograph of #Mastodon founder #JoanMastodon from the early 1960's. Mastodon is seen manually transcribing telegraphed toots into the first ever instance (in background). Mastodon gained late fame when she was banned from Twitter while being mistaken with a guy called #JohnMastodon who actually never existed.
‘By saying that numerous, completely benign Mastodon servers are harmful, they make it more difficult to tell when there's an actual threat. It's a betrayal of the very simple idea that you should only tell people something is dangerous when it's actually dangerous.’ —@maxeddy for PC Magazine
Thanks again to killer_machine_0. Using her photos as references is a great pleasure and helps me to learn, Check out her instagram account 🥰❤️❤️ #manga #mangaart #mangadrawing
Here a bunch of mostly ZDSR-related stuff I made. Maybe there are other projects. I dont know, page in Polish. DO whatever you want to do with it mao.s.elten.blog/projekty/
As Twitter kicked me out of the so-called digital town square, I'm trying to embrace the open source Mastodon with high hopes. Please say hello and help me to navigate through this new app. #newbie #hello #India #twitter

Quick shout-out to everyone who’s made me feel welcome here by commenting, following, interacting, and offering up Mastodon tips. #BlackMastodon fam, you inspire me. Moderators and veteran Mastodonians who’ve been here for a while and get it, you rock. And new arrivals, it gets better. Just give it time. Have a great day, Beloveds! Show of hands: Who’s up for some cake and beer?
FYI we are considering adopting @matrix based tools for future hpc.social feature additions, starting with perhaps an element.io/ service. If you have opinions on any of these or related topics, please let me know or post an idea on the discussions page at github.com/hpc-social/hpc-soci…
The accessibility for the blind advent calendar: day 17 - Poland
Today's highlight is not strictly accessibility-related but it is in itself accessible and definitely makes electronic payments in Poland quick and painless for everyone. Blik is a Polish payment system that is based on six-digit codes entered as a confirmation of payment on the website where you want to make a transaction. The way this is used is the following: 1. You open the app of your bank on your phone and press the Blik button. Sometimes banks will place this feature under the app's shortcuts so starting straight from the homescreen or through a shortcut you yourself created is definitely possible. 2. A six-digit code is generated and it is read out to you. You can remember or copy it and from that moment you've got 120 seconds to finish the transaction. 3. You enter the code on the website or in the app where you're trying to complete a transaction. 4. You return to your banking app to confirm the amount to be paid through the biometric authorization method of your choice or a PIN code. In my banking app the time limit is counted down with each second being marked with a chaptic feedback of my iPhone. Note: meanwhile regular payment terminals already support Blik and more and more shop assistants know how to activate it so the phrase "Poproszę Blikiem" ("By Blik, please") is more commonly heard. Another component of the system are the P2P micropayments to a mobile phone where it is enough to enter the other party's phone number to make or request a payment straight from the banking app. I believe similar systems function in other countries but are mostly QR-code based and require a separate app. I find this way much handier. Also, it is universal across all major Polish banks. blik.com/en/how-to-use-blik #Accessibility #Blind #AdventCalendar #Shopping #Banking #Mobile #Poland
@timedin Thanks for your feedback, default mail app on iOS is planned. Notifications currently can't be synced as these are handled locally to protect your privacy. We'll see if we can improve this.
Was taking a look at the Bayes rules book. Unfortunately the variable names (probably Greek letters?) are not read accessibly. It's a pity because there's a lot of work on the alt text for the diagrams and such, for instance.
I don't think I have MathPlayer, for some reason I was under the impression it was no longer necessary. It's confusing because the download page says it only works in obsolete browsers. So the nvda-alt-m doesn't work for me.
@modulux If they use MathJax, you can also try routing the mouse to the math content, right clicking and enabling math accessibility from the menu that appears. There was some trick to it, but I haven’t used Windows to read Math in ages, so I don’t remember specifics. VO on the Mac works too, if you have access to that, although in modern Mac OS, it requires far more interacting than it should.
Ah, thanks a lot, installing MathPlayer makes it possible (though not pleasant) to read the maths. For some reason the shortcut nvda-alt-m still doesn't work (tells me not math), but the variables and formulae are read. Though the intonation and high pitch are pretty annoying. I didn't know MathPlayer was still necessary.
@modulux You can go to the formula and press enter to interact with it. If you can get MathJax to work, that’s better, if not, the MathPlayer applet in control panel has some settings that are worth adjusting. The default settings assume that you know nothing about math and make MathPlayer think for you instead of reading the raw visual notation.
The translate global attribute is an enumerated attribute that is used to specify whether an element's translatable attribute values and its Text node children should be translated when the page is localized, or whether to leave them unchanged.
Nice. I wonder if adding the translate attribute to elements with aria-label would help with translation, and if that’s still a problem. Maybe @aardrian knows.
@dennisl It is only a signal to *not* translate something. If the auto-translation service does not know to translate something (eg: `aria-roledescription`) then it has no effect no matter its value.
@Mikołaj Hołysz This is perhaps not the reply you would expect but #Friendica, another activity pub based server side app can do that i.e. Follow RSS feeds similar as if these were activity pub contacts.
This is a repository of apps to be used with F-Droid. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github).
