Today I wrote a blog post sharing omg.lol’s People Principles, because you have a right to know what we stand for. https://omglol.news/2024/05/26/omg-lols-people-principles

If you’ve found your /now page nudging you a little too hard over the past few hours, please accept my sincerest apologies! I made a small update last night that aimed to improve the process, but, well, I think it had the opposite effect in a few cases.

Will have it all sorted out soon!

@joshuagrady Heh, nah, ultimately it’s always my fault for what I can only fairly call “insufficient testing”. 😅

@ross Hopefully it was just one! Some people received, uh… hundreds. 😖

🤫 Hey. Psst. Guess what.

There’s no AI in omg.lol, and there never will be.

It’s just real humans with real hearts here, building and connecting and socializing. Exchanging our ideas, not ideas harvested from a model. Creating our own things, not watching something else build them for us.

The web that humans built 30 years ago is still here for us to use and enjoy together today. Some may try to suck out its soul and replace it with the latest shiny thing, but not here. Never here. ❤️🫂

If you took advantage of the free .LOL domain offer, transferred your domain to another registrar, and have since received an invoice from GEN.XYZ, I’d like to hear from you! 😬

@simondh OK, thanks for letting me know. Yikes. This isn’t good at all.

@prami I was wondering, is it possible to customize the favicon of an omg.lol hosted blog?

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort I was about to respond with an enthusiastic "yes!" with some instructions on how to cram a favicon file into a weblog.lol """file""", and then I realized that there’s a broader favicon thing in place that would override all of that anyway. 😢 So the unfortunate answer right now is "ugh, no" but I’m going to work on this soon!

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort Quick question — if you could use a custom favicon for all hosted omg.lol stuff (profile page and weblog), would that be helpful? I suspect it would be better than defaulting to your profile pic (the current behavior), but not as nice as what I’ll eventually do (much more granular control over favicons for separate things). If a custom one-size-fits-all solution will work for you, I can actually get that up and running fairly quickly (like, tonight). Let me know!

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort OK, you got it. Stay tuned for an update!

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort This is live now! You’ll find a new Favicon section at the bottom of the profile/web page editor. Upload any .ico file there and you’ll be good to go!

Two new profile page themes have been added to omg.lol: Nord (Winter) by @binarydigit, and Mastodon Inspired by Jordan Warne (https://jw.omg.lol). They both look superb! ⭐️

@prami I'm guessing the answer is no and it's totally understandable if not, but in the current weblog setup is there a way to publish posts to different destinations/subdomains? For example if I want to send some posts to blog.xyz.com and others to newsletter.xyz.com, is there some switch I can flip to make that happen or is it all or nothing?

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort there isn’t today, but this is something that our upcoming content publishing system (Neato, https://neato.pub) could be made to handle.

🎂 omg.lol is five years old! And that means it’s time for a discount and some lifetime address auctions!

You can save 50% on everything (new addresses, gift codes, and time on your existing address) with the promo code BIRTHDAY.

And we’re also doing five lifetime address auctions at https://bids.lol!

@prami Is there a way to configure a blog to have a sequential post path format? Rather than /Y/m/d I would like to do /1, /2, /3 for every page, but wasn't sure if that was possible with the current config file.

prami,
@prami@social.lol avatar

@mergesort To be clear, you can do this currently, there’s just nothing in place to automate the incrementing. But you can absolutely slap a “Location: /1” or “Location: /42” in the metadata of any post and it’ll be served at that path.
