Setting up Nginx Proxy Manager was easier than I thought! A few hurdles at first (longer blog post in the works) but I got it all working without much issue.

I am seeing things timeout every now and then but it seems a common problem so hopefully I can get that fixed.

I also managed to get docker running Nginx Proxy Manager on a Raspberry Pi, which had a few challenges but I think I've cleared all the hurdles.

The main issue was no clear direction on getting Docker and the container to startup at boot. Lots of forum post reading on that topic.

And yes, I still plan to use Podman when I can but I'm still new at this and just trying to actually get things working! ;)

I found this site that lets you draw icebergs and see how they would float (joshdata.me/iceberger.html?fbc…) - I was looking for visualizations of the iceberg metaphor for behavior, how we only see 10% of what someone is really going through. It’s a great resource for that and also now I’m distracted seeing how an iceberg shaped like a cat would float.

It is a REALLY good idea to write an introductory post about yourself and pin it to your profile. Pinned posts appear at the top of your profile page, and they also have a special ability to federate much more widely than ordinary posts.

It's very quick and easy to do:

Here's why it matters: there's a quirk on Mastodon where some profiles may appear blank to people on some servers, but profiles with pinned posts never look blank to anyone!

I wonder if instead of trying to fetch all posts and storing them on the local database, there could just be a more robust solution to interacting with posts on other instances and then when you click on a profile, it can just go to their instance or it embeds the post view from their instances like news articles embed social media posts.

Similarly when you click on a post it just embeds what the replies in the author's instance look like. Though at least the not seeing all replies issue is getting fixed by other means

Astounding!! Finally you can see the cover of the anthology I've been working on for the past couple of years with co-editors @older and Karen Lord! "We Will Rise Again" is full of essays, interviews, and speculative stories about protest, social movements, and hopeful resistance -- all informed by the experiences of real-life movement leaders and community organizers.

I am so proud and grateful to be part of the amazing group of folks who contributed to the anthology.

I remember that I missed parts of an extended discussion a while ago using mastodon's standard web UI and it looked like #PhanpySocial showed more (transitive) answers. But is it actually possible to solve this problem purely on the client side?
in reply to Heribert SchΓΌtz

Yes it is, you can already manually pull in all the public parts of a discussion by opening the thread's "original page" and then copy-pasting the URLs of all the replies into the search box on your instance. This is very tedious so no one does this, but there's nothing to stop a client or script or instance doing it automatically.

I am not a dev but AFAIK the main holdup has been how to do this efficiently without causing strain on instances.

I just finished A Pail of Air by Fritz Leiber over at Project Gutenberg. It's great post apocalyptic tale about earth thrown into a deep freeze after a rogue Star tears the planet from its orbit. There's not a lot of action but the world building is phenomenal. I'd love to read more stories set in this universe. #scifi #pulp #apocalypse #ProjectGutenberg

Some good news about #Mastodon, there has been a very significant bit of code added which will automatically fetch all the replies in a thread. This means everyone will be able to see a thread's whole conversation no matter which server they are on! πŸ₯³

The code has just been "merged" which means it should become available in the next update to Mastodon, hopefully within the next few months.

(Those who want the technical details can see the Pull Request at github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p…)

in reply to Sven A. Schmidt

That’s fine and normal and I’ll be happy to wait until it shakes out. I think this is the correct direction. Partial reply threads one of the pain points of Fediverse discourse.
in reply to Dave Rahardja 26

Yeah, this is normal for all major new features. They test them on an experimental branch before they are actually released more widely.

Using the shell command in CAD software might seem like an easy way to hollow out a model for 3D printing, but it often leads to inconsistent wall thickness and print artifacts. This post explains why the shell command falls short and introduces a more precise manual modeling approach to achieve uniform, high-quality prints.

I find it interesting what is happening to the polls in Canada.

What looked like an upcoming comfortable victory for The Conservatives has changed dramatically after the inauguration of Trump.

Should the Liberals end up winning the election later this year, the US president would be facing the new leader of the Liberal Party, Mark Carney.

We would then see the chaos president Trump fighting a trade war against a calculated, educated and experienced economist who has lead central banks.

Until then we will all experience a whole flood of tariffs and EOs....
Let's sse if the USA still "exists" by then. 😬😱

I hope European people also see and understand where far right, fascism and nationalism leads to.

This happens all the time.

French fries are not French, they’re Belgian at best.

One of the most popular Chinese dishes in the USA is General Tso's Chicken. In China no one knows who the General Tso is and never tasted his Chicken.

This is not an exhausting list.

in reply to AzulCrescent

reminds me of the dutch "filet americain"

which 1) for whatever reason has a french name

and 2) is literally raw minced beef with some spices that you're supposed to put on a slice of bread (with maybe some onions/eggs/more spices).

I guess maybe because americans like meat and boneless things? I have no idea what the connection is here honestly

Rich text editing on Discourse! I think that having to write Markdown directly has been one of the biggest real impediments for existing forums to move to Discourse, as I see it. I prefer writing raw Markdown, but most "normal" people would prefer a rich text editor. So happy to see this happening!
