I usually follow back, if you follow me. Three things, please: have an avatar, a profile, and write and boost posts in English (unless it is visual art, or photography).

@cheeaun anything after the hash isn’t rendered, right?

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@cheeaun your post has two links. One goes to the aureola borealis stream (not just cool, but awesome!), the other goes to Phanpy’s login.

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@cheeaun hmm, not in my instance, no.

Does Apple's white-text-on-green-bubbles actually violate their own accessibility guidelines or is it just really really close?

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@nyquildotorg what would the difference be (other than the colours, of course) to the white-text-on-blue-bubbles that iMessages-to-iMessages uses? I see both each day, and they are both quite accessible.

Slightly on tangent, the reason of the green bubbles hate is not related to their colour. 😅

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@nyquildotorg interesting! I didn’t notice it before but, indeed, the blue bubbles are more legible at a smaller size. 🤔

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@nyquildotorg font size can be set by the user, and apps supporting Dynamic Type will adapt. Apple doesn’t show numbers, but a slider. You get to set the initial size on first setup, but it can be changed anytime.

has ubuntu's "do-release-upgrade" ever fucking worked?

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@nyquildotorg I have been using it since 18.04. On 22.04 now. No issues*.

@cheeaun what will it take to allow a link to a post in Phanpy to work? For example, try opening this link on an incognito window:
https://m.ferengi.one/#/collantes.social/s/112292764653755840?view=full

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@cheeaun unrelated, but perhaps a bug too? I have enabled "Display from which app you sent a post" on my instance (Mastodon, latest), but that isn't showing on Phanpy anymore. I swear it once showed.

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@cheeaun I think I was able to see on Phanpy when someone used Phanpy to post/reply, as it will show, just like the vanilla Mastodon client does. Was I wrong, did I imagined that? 😅

This popup -- "If you turn Bluetooth off you will not be able to use your Bluetooth devices." -- is not true.

You can still use your devices, but they won't connect with the one that gives this scary warning.

@dangillmor I read that message and I completely understand what it means. What wording would you have used?

@nyquildotorg this is the stupidest waste of time, and tax payers money. Had to facepalm myself.

What people call justice is usually just vengeance.

david,

@Meyerweb there is a very thin, blurry line, between justice and vengeance.

@stigatle, hi there! So, is this going to last longer than Yarn? 😊 Kidding, kidding! I encourage you to write the process you followed to get snac running. I would be interested to read about it.

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@stigatle cool! I might play with it, being into minimalistic setups, and all. Welcome to the Fedi! 😊

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@stigatle so, are you using Docker?

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@stigatle using systemd, or just forking the process?

david, to random
@david@collantes.social avatar

@grunfink do you have a list of people using snac? I am curious to see what customisations they have done to it. I saw two web themes exist, but haven’t found sites using them. Thanks!

@Migueldeicaza so lucky! I need to buy a new Mac to be able to experience it. My current 2015 iMac is stuck with Monterey. 😩

My partner (@meetar) and 9yo collaborated on this WebGL project that lets you peek into Dr. Esterhazy's mysterious mineral collection. I got to beta test and be gently hypnotized.

@kissane @meetar that link almost killed my Safari under macOS. I was able to close the tab, but almost nothing showed (just the avatar at bottom, and the minimal navigation at the top).

david,
@david@collantes.social avatar

@kissane @meetar come to prove, older is better! LOL. Though it is up-to-date, this one I am using is stuck on Monterey, that could be part of the issue. Also the fact that it hasn’t been wiped fresh in quite a long time.

Nevertheless, I saw the little experiment on iOS, and loved it!
