@stefan before I learned that I was using "Share to Mastodon" that I had configured to a Mastodon account that my Friendica Account re-toots everything it toots, though depending on what I was doing I preferred to manually copy/paste the URL so that I could include proper BBCodelike [url=https://full.text-of.url][/url] so that the URL preview would look the way I wanted it too.
[=bbcode]Friendica BBCode tags reference - Documentation [Friendica / Wiki]](https://wiki.friendi.ca/docs/bbcode?s%5B)
@stefan While share to mastodon didn't recognize my friendica instance as a valid Mastadon instance, it did recognize both my Soapbox and GNU Social accounts as valid, but neither works right, GNU Social just shows a pop-up window indicating "internal server error NO SUCH USER FOUND" whether I'm logged in or not, if I am logged in it shows my personal preference for the GNU Social interface and a log out button while if I'm logged out it shows the default interface and a log in button. On my Soapbox account it just opens a pop-up for a new post with no info pre-populated in the text input box.
On similar notes Friendica nativeily supports RSS so I have used kill-the-newsletter.com to set up an email address I call "tooty mail" that lets me just type an email from any email account in the world, like when I'm at work where much of the web, including my Frienidca instance, is blocked, if i have something on my mind. (With native RSS support almost half of my "friends" are RSS feeds, with nearly half of those being email newsletters, which leads to me reading more of that content in general AND making my email inbox easier to manage actual important email communication.
@stefan
I really had hoped to find a way to set up something more similar to what tweety-mail was back in the day where when you emailed from (a) certain authorize(d) email address with certain commands it would post text of the mail, return X number of recent notification via email, return X number of recent toots from a given feed, or comment on a particular toot included in that return, etc. But I'm not smart enough to do so and I couldn't find a way to explain what I wanted to anyone that I could pay to make a FLOSS tool available to anyone.
But until then we should expect His return and be good stewards of this earth.
I would hope you agree that part of that stewardship is social-economic reform. Jesus told the rich man that to follow him he must sell what he has and give to the poor. The early Christians lived in community and shared everything leaving nothing to themselves.
I was reading an article about trying to do a daily schedule with an ADHD brain, and while reading that, I wondered what was in the sweetener I was pouring into my tea, and so launched a rabbit trail researching Truvia and erythritol… and five minutes later, I close the terminal I was wikipedia-ing on, only to find the same article I had started with staring at me.
I had completely forgotten what I was doing because…
@wjmaggos@alex I call myself a leftist, and I don't see liberals as sell out progressives, I see "progressives" as also right-wing capitalists, just like all other liberals.
I would be more chatty on here if it weren’t for these two facts:
I come up with social media posts when I can’t write them, and I instantly forget them. Sometimes, they come back to me at the right time. You’re getting only those.
I share many terrible jokes with my partner first, and it's often enough for me not to want to post them online. You’re welcome.
Two factor authentication is the bane of my existence. It is #ANNOYING! I misplace all the time. This may be related to my #ADHD but maybe not since that hasn’t improved since my doctor put me on Vyvanse while everything else in my life more-or-less has. From a security standpoint I get it, but I do get so concerned about how much of one’s identity is tied to your phone these days. Not only does that hurt people who chose not to have a cell phone, but how easy is it for me to lose everything if someone else steals my cell phone.
In fact Facebook requiring me to activate #2FA to continue to utilize my account was the primary driving factor between me using Friendica as my primary social media now rather than Facebook, even though I first joined the ‘verse back in 2011, when it was called simply open source microblogging and was pretty much just identi.ca/feeds/7gqal0c2pesei9… (if you had an account there, it still works BTW and @evan has indicated he plans to integrate ActivityPub by this summer, after its previous protocols, StatusNet and Pump.io, have fell out of favor). @passwords@neurodiverse@netsec@ADHD kill-the-newsletter.com/altern…
