How is Mastodon harder? (Legit question, not snark)

The cobbler’s sons go barefoot.

Identity was already solved with Zot aka Nomad, which is part of the Fediverse and easier to implement than ATProto.

It’s mostly been ignored because it’s just not that important to people, apparently.

IIRC, yes but it’s called differently. I’ve used that technique to work around nannyware a time or two.

This is why the Annotated Pratchett File make for a good reading companion.

Fun fact! The farmers rely on this effect to supply supplemental meat in the growing season.

It’s literally life or death for the ants, so the solution is obvious. Incorrect weather predictions are now a capital crime.

For a second, I misread this and thought Rockbox had a desktop port.

They wouldn’t even accept my card for mysterious reasons. Only time I’ve had that problem.

I’d use something that already exists:

• https://life-notes.fr/
• https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy
• https://github.com/BabyTracker/baby-tracker

The focus of the latter two is slightly off, but it would work.

Actually, I’d probably not add a use-specific thing unless I needed something specific it offered. I’d just pop up another page on our shared wiki to track things, or put it in a synced note app.

Depends on your platform. I don’t know about drop in calls, tho.

Syncthing is another nice option for syncing Obsidian notes.

You’ll want to use Syncthing-fork on Android.

XMPP, but unironically

If they’re courting buyers, it’s already dead. It’s just not started to stink yet.
