Given the boom of .app and .dev gTLDs, this is a massive win for Squarespace if the registry side is included in the deal.

So, Alien Blue was not a third-party app?

Great Snoo Platform... lie.

What's your opinion about Manjaro? (lemmy.world)

I've seen a lot of people who quite dislike Manjaro, and I'm not really sure why. I'm myself am not a Manjaro user, but I did use it for quite a while and enjoyed my experienced, as it felt almost ready out of the box. I'm not here to judge, just wanted to hear the opinion of the community on the matter. Thanks!

Vulcan formerly used Manjaro from 2013 to 2017.

Back then, the community was much better and the distro was perfectly alright for everyone who wants Arch-based distro but without the complexity of setting up Arch.

In 2017, Vulcan moved to mainline Arch, not due to the community but because of personal desire to try and learn Arch the Arch way. Antergos and now EndeavourOS have less development drama, so Vulcan now recommends it instead of Manjaro.

Vulcan's sleeping schedule is mostly from midnight to 6 AM, although during lazy holiday or weekend can extends up to 9 AM.

/kbin contribution and information for instance owners

The search form has been fixed (if you were experiencing this issue). This time, the Docker recreate may take a bit longer. Moving forward, when making changes, I will create pull requests like everyone else and ask for your review. Sorry for the inconvenience. Soon, the first tagged release will also be available. It's time to...

Porkbun sounds good, will consider transfer domain to it (currently using a local registrar).

This includes Google’s special TLDs they own and administer?

That would be huge, especially with how .dev is booming now.

The Snoo Platform will stay, but in such a degraded state after mass exodus.

What are your favorite browser extensions?

Ublock Origin is an obvious one, but I also can't stand not having Foxy Gestures anymore. It adds customizable mouse gestures, so you can set it up to have easy swipes to go back a page, reload a page, close a tab, etc, and it feels wonderful and smooth to use compared to just using the traditional buttons to do everything....

Sending a congratulatory message from the kbin side

For Vulcan, the strongest impetus to move to kbin was the Snoo Platform's decision to change how API will be accessed, and also Apollo drama.

Vulcan was a Relay user and Relay's dev decision to move into subscription model (can't blame the dev) due to corporate greed of Snoo Platform's execs successfully alienated me from the Snoo Platform.

Literary choice and habit :)

This is fine according to Lord Elon, right?

This is a well-written post.

The wind of change has arrived, towards Fediverse favour.

Can confirm, Vulcan is a moderator and mostly used old.reddit (although with new.reddit for couple occasions).

Killing old.reddit will be a huge shockwave, especially among moderators.

Not an OC. Vulcan forgot to link the original Wikimedia Commons page

Yup, first time being aware of the Snoo Platform was after reading a Slashdot thread of (unfortunately) Aaron Swartz's suicide.

Still have a Slashdot account, but not used for a long time after Vulcan moved to the Snoo Platform.
