Is there a way to get @ivory to manually fetch or refresh accounts/profiles/toots of people on other servers?

I know I can open their profile in the in-app browser, but it’s such a hassle to have to log in and MFA every single time I want to follow/boost anything, and for some reason a lot of profiles never gets refreshed so I never see their updated profile/content in . decentralized infrastructure problems… 🥲

Does the world need another photo-sharing platform? Former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer thinks so.

Last week, her company launched the Shine app, which "automatically creates albums around gatherings of people you know and uses AI to remove duplicates, picking out the best ones."

App developers: if you use notifications very sparingly, for things that I actually care about, I'll leave them turned on and even appreciate them.

But if you abuse notifications and hit me with too many, I'll block notifications from your app. Globally. All of them. And then I'll forget about it, and never revisit that decision.

Once you hit that point, it's too late. You ain't coming back.

Think about it before you decide to do notifications.

Sometimes your desktop just gets a little boring and when that happens, let Damask refresh it. The app can automatically cycle through your wallpapers and can even find you some new ones. It give you the option to pull from various sources, like Bing and Wallhaven's collection of backgrounds. With Damask, you can always have a new backdrop to your digital life!

You can follow the app's creator here: @subpop

You can get the app on Flathub here: https://flathub.org/apps/app.drey.Damask
