Could a @buttondown expert help? I followed the pay what you want documentation, link at end, but I don't see an option to allow people to pay what they want, monthly! Unless the option is not accessible to my screen reader, I don't see that particular option when I click add a plan. I see an edit box to put in amounts, then cadence. Nothing about giving people the option of paying what they want. I was planning to make like a newsletter that is open for all to read and people pay and support me because I keep every work of mine open and accessible for low income to read but the docs appear to be either missing or not updated. I am very techy, I followed these instructions to a T, and neither Stripe nor Buttondown has a pay what you want monthly option, it seems. Thoughts anyone? I did add sighted people to my team, so if there's something I am missing visually, let me know and they can take a look! https://docs.buttondown.com/paid-subscriptions#ButtonDown#Newsletter#Email@buttondownemail
Gente, uma leitora do @ideiasdechirico mandou uma mensagem por #email perguntando se não teria condições de eu lançar as novas postagens via e-mail, como uma #newsletter.
A primeira solução que me veio à mente seria fazer uma newsletter a partir do feed #RSS. Já vi algumas soluções para isso, no entanto são serviços pagos. Alguém sabe sem tem alguma solução para isso que seja #FOSS ― de código aberto e gratuito ?
IRC fans talking about "emoji reactions" remind me of evangelical Christians who say atheists "just want to sin."
IRC Evangelist: IRC has literally all capabilities of other "modern" messaging systems, except emoji reactions. Literately the only reasons anyone would ever choose any other message system over IRC is for the emoji.
Me: If somemany sends me a message when I'm offline, I want to be able to read it when I get back online. That's a significant feature IRC lacks that other messaging systems (including SMS, XMPP, Matrix, email, ActivityPub, and all proprietary messaging systems) have.
IRC Evangelist: Oh, you said the "M"-word? You use that trash? You must have chosen Matrix for the emoji reactions!
Me: No, I didn't. I use Matrix to chat with people in other time zones, and I want to be able to read messages they send when I'm offline. It's all about chat history, not emoji.
IRC Evangelist: You're lying! Nobody cares about viewing "history" in an instant messager: that's what public forums are for! You must have chosen Matrix for the emoji reactions.
Me: No, I do not want all my messages to be on public forums. I talk with my parents using SMS, including some personal info that I don't want to be scrapable on a forum. But I do want to be able to read a message they sent me when I'm in a zone without reception.
IRC Evangelist: Well why don't you use IRC to talk to your parents instead? It's not like you need emoji reactions?
Me: Because IRC lacks chat histo--
IRC Evangelist: OH NO! My evil employer is forcing me to use Discord for work! Why not IRC? It's not like anyone needs emoji reactions for work! And emoji reactions are literally the only capability Discord has that IRC doesn't.
IRC Evangelist's Evil Employer: Um, if an employee is out sick we want them to be able to read messages that were sent while they were out. Also, maybe sometimes you'll need to look at a message from last week, which IRC makes difficult.
IRC Evangelist: But I can work without Emoji! All that other stuff you said is totally irrelevant!
Signal user: We use signal for end-to-end encryption.
IRC Evangelist: No you don't: you must have chosen Signal for emoji reactions. You can set up OTR+TLS for IRC encryption. Clearly security can't be the reason you chose signal.
Signal user: Um, I don't think OTR is as secure as Signal. Also setting it up is not as beginner friendly.
IRC Evangelist: Beginner friendly? That's just a euphemism for emoji reactions! I knew you really just chose Signal for the emoji!
Me: Hey, look what I found. It's a draft specification for adding chat history to IRC. This is great! If it gets completed and widely adopted, then I'll be able to move some of my existing group chats to IRC.
IRC Evangelist: Nooooooooo! You must not add any new features to IRC: you'll ruin it with emoji reactions.
I wanted to be able to catch up with my Mastodon feed and not miss any post. First I looked into RSS support for my home timeline but it's a feature requested but not ready. I saw some people created something, but all closed source. So I made a script to send me new posts from my Home timeline to my email https://codeberg.org/adelgado/mastodon_email_bridge #Mastodon#Email#Mail#Feed#Python
@protonprivacy has officially pressed the #enshittification button as they have launched a AI product AND a cryptocurrency product in the past two weeks.
This will make me seriously consider moving away from #Proton products as a long time user (approaching 7 years now) and it's really a shame that they capitulated considering there's not much viable #email alternatives left aside from #selfhosting (which is a nightmare at itself BTW).
