I think forcing all posts to be opted-in to the search, and depending on users to opt-out, would be far more controversial? Either way, the user does get to control this within the platform.

There’s also a really nice deep dive into the updates here.

I wrote a blog post about using Postmarks and contributing to the project https://andypiper.co.uk/2023/09/11/bookmarks-in-the-fediverse/

At the moment it is explicitly designed as a single-user implementation, although I’m sure it could be pivoted to become multiuser. I’ve simply set up my own on Glitch and it is working great! -> https://pipesmarks.glitch.me/

For what platform?

I do not know if it is on the Fedora roadmap, but I can recommend taking a listen to the most recent episode of Linux Matters, where the three hosts talked a lot about backup strategies, and also mentioned GUIs.

I’ve been enjoying the first couple of episodes of Strange Planet on Apple TV. I wasn’t sure they could translate a comic strip into something that runs 20(ish) minutes, but it has had me laughing a lot.

Oh, and listening to Messy, the new album from Cindy Alexander. She did a super intimate (audience of 3, me being one of them) livecast the other night, it was really nice.

Also: they remastered the Lush albums? I’ll have to check that out.

Reminds me a little of the Rook design. CoreXY right? Tell us more about it!

understandable! No problem, just thought it could be useful, but realise you should make those choices carefully.

You can use the Graze browser extension that will help with this.

Just about to finish printing this, it looks really fun.

It looks great. Curious how it plays.

Yeah, the decimation in the low poly app was particularly aggressive around the mouth! The original scan of course was not a huge resolution, and I had glasses on which was a mistake. Came out ok for my vanity purposes though :-)

This is hilarious and I am here for it. They can’t pay their bills, can’t imagine they have funds to get a legal case together.

thanks for sharing, appreciate it 😀

I just wrote about this today! https://andypiper.co.uk/2023/07/05/running-a-3d-print-catalogue-with-van-dam/

Any example images? Curious to know what this produces.

tl;dr the Fediverse is not great at UX of the cross-instance stuff, yet.

There’s a browser extension to make cross-instance user following simpler on Mastodon (Graze); that means you can just click to follow a user from your home instance, on any Mastodon instance. I think the same concept could be modified to apply to subscribing to Lemmy communities between instances.

I think this is more of a general Lemmy issue than something specific to Lemmy.world, but I agree with your point that this should be easier!

As of recently, I am officially helping Mastodon with developer relations and documentation! I also do some promotion / writing and speaking, and other work with the MicroPython project - and the Awesome MicroPython list. Beyond that, I offer a bunch of drive-by pull requests to smaller projects that I use, when I can!

I’m a supporting member of the EFF, PSF, and OSI (I ran the OSI booth at State of Open this year), and I am an ambassador for OpenUK
