Introducing myself when I travel:
"I live in Vancouver"

Introducing myself to Vancouver people:

@mariatta I do something very similar.

When I travel:
"I live close to Rome" 🏛️

In Italy:
"Io vivo a Pescara" 🏖️

👋 Fediverse folks, what do you think of adding support in or ? See discussion: https://github.com/wagtail/wagtail/discussions/9732

It’s a neat idea, a few other platforms have it as a package, we’re wondering how much interest there would be

@wagtail as you can imagine, I think it's a great idea 💡

Does anyone know how to change the image being rendered in social media from a #blog post generated with #Pelican ?

I often include a few pictures in the post and I would like to be able to have one of them shown in the preview.

Instead, my profile picture (the one you also see here on my Mastodon profile) is always shown.

Maybe @justin knows?

@hamatti @andreagrandi it's exactly that. ☝️
I added Open Graph metadata in my Pelican-based blog, and now different images show up in preview card when I share URLs ✨
You can read the HTML code from my home page as an example: 👇

Three more days until the Italian festival.

If you don't care about this 5 days mega event, which doubles as a Eurovision qualifier, you may want to block the "" and "" hashtags for a week

But if you do care, you may want to install RaiPlay on your iOS device (https://apps.apple.com/de/app/raiplay/id501323740) or, if you're lucky enough to own a satellite dish in Europe, move this to the 13° East / Hotbird posititon where RAI 1 broadcasts this freely in HD.

20tab just finished the Django website UX analysis, a collaboration with the DSF to improve the accessibility and usability of one of the Django websites.

I'll leave you with a very short Google Survey to help 20tab understand how involved you are in the Django project and how much the topic of UX is felt, as well as the link to learn more about the work we've done so far.

Today January 31st is the birthday of Guido van Rossum creator of the Python programming language for which he was the benevolent dictator for life 🎉

“Python is an experiment in how much freedom programmers need. Too much freedom and nobody can read another’s code; too little and expressiveness is endangered”

Thank you for your contribution to the FOSS community and Happy Birthday 🎂

✨ This is so cool.

😶‍🌫️ I dream of seeing Django run in the browser.

🤔 I also dream of the next generation of solutions that aren't bringing the entire Python library via Pyodide to the browser.

🤷 Why the nitpick? I want this tech to work on mobile browsers on phones that can't or don't need to bring the entire Python language and standard libraries. https://fosstodon.org/@sethmlarson/111845671845990883

@webology have you looked in "Absurd Django" from @patrick and Wilhelm Klopp?

It's an experiment of running Django in the browser using Pyodide 💡

Try it here:

@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@webology @patrick I agree with you. I think is trying to solve the same problems of overheard and download size.

RT @htmx_org

So is anyone actually using htmx or what?

paulox,
@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@andros In reality, HTMX is more than just fetch in Javascript 😅
The project goal from its website:
> "htmx gives you access to AJAX, CSS Transitions, WebSockets and Server Sent Events directly in HTML, using attributes, so you can build modern user interfaces with the simplicity and power of hypertext"
https://htmx.org/

paulox,
@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@andros I dispute the fact that the ones you mention are all JavaScript APIs, but I don't want to open this discussion here. I sincerely advise you to read the contents of the HTMX website and not limit yourself to this post. 💡

paulox,
@paulox@fosstodon.org avatar

@andros well done. 👏
I understand that you are not yet convinced about HTMX, I don't think it is the solution for all use cases, but if you are interested in one in particular I recommend this video from DjangoCon Europe 2022 👇

I just noticed that the website https://www.djangosites.org was shut down last week by its creator @rosspoulton with the article "Goodbye, Djangosites". 🥲

I thank him for creating this site in 2007 and for maintaining it for almost twenty years .🙏

@webology @rosspoulton maybe we can ask Ross if he did a dump or we can try with archive.org 🤷‍♂️

This change moves a lost HTML footer div in Admin outside the main element and replaces it with a semantically correct footer element.
