Been trying this out secretly for the past few weeks — a "catch-up" timeline page. Did whole bunch of iterations, where I myself is the guinea pig, but this time reaching a point where I just got to share it out in the public.

  • NOT final design, still very experimental, only on my local machine
  • Instead of algo timeline, this is focused on data-grid-like UI for configuring exactly what I want to see.
  • This honestly could be another full-fledged app/client by itself 🫠

#Mastodon

Demo of Catch-up page where it shows the Home/Following timeline with configurable filters and sort options.

If I compost, that is for 2 main reasons:

One, I care for this planet and I think that we need to be responsible for it. I can't watch the neglectful behavior of men who have become a real danger for it and do nothing. I do not want when the next generations ask me why has your generation destroyed our planet to give them a concert of bullshit excuses, they deserve better.

Two because I noticed every time I eat homegrown food it tastes so much better than any produce you can buy that is very expensive and does not taste good.

Tell me more about the reasons that have pushed you to compost.

@redoak @compost Having the kids head to the compost bin includes them in gardening and household management, keeps the kitchen tidier, forces me tinginintonthe garden more often and take a look at the progress. 👍

We live in an upside down world.

Swedish authorities are threatening Greta Thunberg with a prison sentence — while the real criminals, the owners of the fossil fuel companies and the multinational corporations, are making 💵 millions of dollars 💵 every day by destroying the ecosphere that Greta Thunberg and others are trying to protect.

We live in an upside down world.

It's illegal to rip off a payroll,
It's illegal to hold up a train,
But it's legal to rip off a million or two,
That comes from the labour that other folk do,
To plunder the many on behalf of the few,
Is a thing that is perfectly legal.

    Can I please ask for help from anyone who's good on ? or ? I have a problem with SSL on my website: I installed Really Simple SSL to allow my site to be https, but it doesn't seem to be updating properly, because... I dunno, it's beyond me. As such my website has a security block for visitors. I think it's an expiry thing. I'm not in the mood to pay for anything, so what should I do in terms of plugins or whatever?

    Sorry, I am a bit of a dunce at this sort of stuff.

    @simonvarwell I’ve done this a few times but not frequently enough to remember what the process is. Did you check with your hosting provider’s support team? I rely heavily on support and am usually quite happy with the assistance they provide.
