1/5 For the last two years I’ve been working on Plinky, sharing my work publicly while the app has been in beta.

Today it’s finally ready to go live in the App Store, and I’d like to not only share the app with you but share more about why I built it.

What is Plinky?

I suggest one more: setting a date after which the link is deleted. How often did I save links "to read as preparation for $thing" - the date of the thing passed and the links were still there, now useless.

@mergesort
I would wish to be able to specify a date. But your options would be a very good first step I would be very happy with.
But only if I can choose which links to save "forever" and which one get which deletion date.

vik,
@vik@literatur.social avatar

@mergesort
This is correct.
Use case: As user, I want to specify a time span or date after which the bookmarked link is automatically deleted.
Usage example: I am interested in a concert at 11th August. There are some articles about the bands performing there. I bookmark these articles - but I know that I will not be interested to read this background information after the concert. So I would set the deleting delay to 12th August or about 90 days.

Nummer 5: Worin unterscheidet sich deine Geschichte besonders von anderen Werken desselben Genres?

Meine Werwölfe sind normale Leute mit normalen Problemen. Sie müssen Urlaub nehmen, zum Arzt, Termine einhalten - und das alles wird durch das Werwolfdasein verkompliziert. Es ist Fantasy, ja, aber so Urban Fantasy wie möglich, also so nah an der Realität wie möglich. Molekulargenetisch bin ich an eine Erklärungsgrenze gestoßen, aber bis dahin passt es in unsere Welt.

24.04.:
Würde sich deine Geschichte dazu eignen, in Form eines (z.B. Rollen-)Spiels umgesetzt zu werden?

Oh ja. Es geht um die Werwölfe, die als möglichst versteckte Subkultur hier unter uns leben. Urban Fantasy eignet sich ja immer als recht dankbares Rollenspielsetting 🙂

@Firlefanz
Nun ja, verfolgt ... Nur noch von so einer Gruppe Leute, die den Hass von ihren Ahnen geerbt haben. Sie halten sich bedeckt, weil wir anderen ja nicht an so was glauben und das einfach alles viel zu kompliziert machen würde. Die ewigen Erklärungen ... und in Zeiten von Impfhass und anderen Verschwörungsschwurbeleien will man nicht unbedingt ein zusätzliches Ziel werden.

Oh je, in deren Haut möchte ich nicht stecken.
Die Geschichte würde ich gerne lesen, sobald meine fertig ist - gibt es die schon irgendwo? Eines Tages lese ich sie 😁

fabula murina (mouse story) CXXXV
Silvius matrem in culina adiuvat (Silvius is helping his mother in the kitchen). Minima manubrium molae trusatilis versat et triticum molit (Minima turns the handle of the quern and grinds wheat). Silvius farinam colligit (Silvius collects the flour).

I really love these mouse stories. Sometimes they teach me Latin, sometimes they teach me English 😁 And the pictures of the cute little mice are always so adorable ❤️
Thank you for creating and sharing these stories!

21.04.: Hattest du beim Schreiben schon mal einen besonderen Glücksmoment? Wodurch wurde er ausgelöst?

Nein. Aber als ich völlig unerwartet extrem positives Feedback über Social Media bekommen habe, lief ich für Tage wie auf Wolken 😍

Leute, schreibt Menschen, wenn ihr ihre Sachen mögt! Ihr ahnt vielleicht gar nicht, wie viel ihnen das bedeutet und wie sehr ihr damit ihren Tag versüßt ❤️

Feels like the 50th time I am trying to work on this fingerless gloves construction (in truth, it's only the 7th or 8th time). This time, however, I am trying to take the mistakes into account that I made last time, i.e. I am making new mistakes :/

It looks very nice! Which pattern do you use?
And very nice colours, by the way. Good luck with this cast on 🙂

Ach, wie schön es ist, mal wieder über das (und Lesen und Interpretieren!) zu sprechen! Vielen Dank an @Nike_Leonhard und @textflash - und euch allen einen kleinen Motivationsschub! Redet doch mal wieder mit anderen Schreibenden - es macht so viel Spaß! <3

Hello fediverse, lil cry for help: I’m looking to speak to someone with vitelliform macular dystrophy caused vision loss, so I can ask about their experience with the onset of symptoms. I was diagnosed ~3 years ago and until recently hadn’t experienced symptoms, I believe I now am but would love to chat to others about their experiences. Compulsory masto disclaimer: I’m not looking for advice other than the specific ask above, thank you. Boosts much appreciated 💖

Not the box of shame, you sit in the bright box of enlightenment 😁 Learning something you didn't know before is reason for joy 🙂 Congratulations!

So, I finished the 2nd sleeve of the small cardigan for my 3-yo daughter. Hurray!

Only an i-cord edge of the fronts and neckline left to do.... only... I finished all the yarn.

So I'm thinking about going all mad and doing the i-cord edge in a totally different colour. Maybe even black? mastodonians... what do you think?? I do have a second skein of the same yarn, but... what to do!!

@knitting
Well under way for the !!!

Well. The new A/C is getting closer. And yes, that hole is ugly, but should be completely covered when I'm done.

The only practical place to mount it was the front of my server closet, which took a little engineering, but I'm pretty sure it's going to work.

DIY is a lot of work, though. I probably do too much of it, but I don't have the money to hire contractors (and they'd probably balk at this custom stuff, anyway).

@TerryHancock
DIY also makes sure the result is as close to your idea as possible. I like it, although it costs a lot of time.

    Do you mean that one little task is blocking your whole energy to go on with your to do list? If yes, then I can understand that perfectly :-/
    I made an agreement with my partner a couple of weeks ago: Whenever I stumble upon such a nasty little task, I can ask them to do it for me. Most of the time it is just something like "call anywhere to get an appointment" or "put away something that requires to go downstairs". Nevertheless, it blocks me.
    Let's see if the agreement helps.
