I sometimes feel bad about joining a Discord server and then hardly participating despite there being interesting discussions there. But the fact is that most of the discussion happens on North American time, which means by the time I check it, it’s now a 12-hour wall of interleaved discussion that I can’t easily catch up on (multiplied the number of servers I’ve joined with good intentions) and it’s probably all been resolved / talked out by then anyway
@sinbad https://knockout.chat/ is very active and a community that I hold very dear 🙂
loads of interesting megathreads and discussion with a community that has been active since ~2007
@pikuma While funny, kind of interesting that we have various syntax highlights through color, but is there anything which highlights using font size? Like specific template snippets would result in bigger text. Comment regions would be Headings. Etc.
@noio that was my impression as well — as a complete newbie I would just love to see the full flow. Even just a basic barrel or whatever could be worth a ton!
Calling #indieweb. I would love to explore a more graph-based internet community form.
I was thinking about how posts and comments onFacebook, Reddit, etc. is so short-lived. Forum fixes this, but things can also be quite detached from each other. Ex. News about an event can come in multiple threads -- what if we could follow the trend of this, especially after many years.
I am thinking of something like a knowledge graph like Obsidian, but for internet communities.
So I have this years-old iCloud Photos album I use for design inspiration. 3200 images and videos. I’ve tried various methods of tagging and categorising them, but it’s painful.
Is there a tool that will categorise them for me, or let me search through them with natural language? Doesn’t have to be perfect, but has to be better than a bleary-eyed me manually going through all of them.
I was reading about resource/asset packing file formats game engines use, and it seems that the answer always is "ad-hoc engine-specific binary format".
I'm starting to think that I'll just slap a zip file in here and be happy.
