I've been really enjoying working with Wikidata lately, setting up automated accounts like @libraries, @parks, and @lighthouses.

To see what else you can do with Wikidata, and to learn how to use it, check out a tutorial I put together: https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/making-a-map-of-unesco-world-heritage-sites/

Hey everyone! I recently posted about my latest project, a universal fediverse sharing button: https://stefanbohacek.com/project/fediverse-sharing-button/

Is this something that you'd find useful for your website or blog?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for sharing and trying this out! I fixed an issue on iOS some of you might have run into, just FYI.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

FYI, a WordPress version is in the works. No time frame for when it'll be ready, but do let me know if that would be something you'd also be interested in.

stefan,
@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

Too hard to use, interesting.

This already relies heavily on JavaScript, to switch which instance to go to, that would be difficult to do without it.

So maybe I could make a default version that would only require adding the JS/CSS files, and a placeholder DIV, and add the form dynamically.

And the current version with the full HTML would be an option 2 for those who prefer it?

And I wonder how many of you are just holding out for a WordPress plugin version.

@BiggestBulb Thank you, I appreciate you saying that!

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

Oh shoot, something else might contain "I already use something similar".

I can never get these polls right.

Anyway. If you know a good alternative, feel free to share a link!

@nora Cool, definitely let me know later, happy to help set this up!

@alter_kaker Nice, thank you! Definitely feel free to reach out when you do!

@nora Sure, looking forward to it!

@cogdog @ben Yes, a few people mentioned this, see the FAQ section.

It's very nice, thank you for the heads-up!

@DavBot Thank you, let me know if you run into any issues!

stefan,
@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

@cybeardjm Yep, I know I can count on you! Planning to start working on it this week.

The biggest challenge will be keeping both the original script and the WP version in sync. I'll figure it out.

I often brag on tumblr about how "on the fediverse I never have to ask people for image descriptions, why is tumblr so terrible at this?" etc.

But, I've made the mistake of re-sharing a few images without descriptions recently! I was lulled into thinking it was not a problem.

Just FYI I'm going to get strict again about not re-sharing undescribed images. (You should too, it keeps the feed readable.)

If you forget? If this is new? Don't feel bad, just stop doing that.

@futurebird @promovicz It is definitely interesting to see how the presence of alt text varies based on the app used: https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/impact-of-fediverse-clients-on-the-use-of-alt-text/

stefan,
@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

@futurebird @promovicz So I only looked at mastodon.social's local timeline, (see the Methodology section for an explanation), so that's kind of accounted for.

But yes, it is also very interesting to see the difference between communities, eg: https://mastodon.social/@AltTextHealthCheck/112467699732404812

A follow-up study could also compare some of the more prominent communities, see if the stats hold up.

stefan,
@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

@ubiquiti_fanatic @dr2chase @futurebird @promovicz It's an alternative web client for Mastodon.

https://phanpy.social

See the Conclusions section for some screenshots of how it nicely handles alt text input.

@stefan provides the fediverse with a lot of great apps and research. Go give his work a gold star (seriously, that's all he's asking for).

Hey everyone! I don't typically ask for donations for my work, but if you do enjoy any of it, I would appreciate you starring this GitHub repo.

Thank you!

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

I'm looking at a free BrowserStack plan for open source projects.

https://www.browserstack.com/open-source

They're not really clear about their requirements, although I'd assume they mean big projects with thousands of stars on GitHub. Right?

Anyone in the community has relevant knowledge/experience?

stefan,
@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

I mean, all my repos have 547 stars combined. Two of my WordPress plugins have been installed on "100+ sites". Four of my browser extensions have 240 installs across Firefox + Chrome.

Those are not big numbers, sure, but it seems like I provide enough value?

I don't know.

The page I linked to only asks for an "Open Source Project URL", and I don't really have one big project. Maybe I could build my case if I could submit all of my work together.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

Hm, maybe not too surprising, but first time I'm hearing about "CEO ghostwriting".

"Over the past year, I’ve contributed a half dozen more stories to Forbes.com. Not under my own name, but as a ghost writer for a couple different CEOs. For that work I was paid—no exaggeration— TEN times what Forbes ever paid me to write for its site [...]"

Tonight on 00:00 CET+1 mstdn.social will go offline for a planned server migration⚠️

I’m trying my best to make this all happen as fast as possible but I estimate a max of 6 hours of downtime.

In the meanwhile you can keep an eye out on our status page at: https://status.mstdn.social

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online avatar

@stux Good luck!
