@sun @light the us gov is fucked and has been always. Not arguing that much

@sun @light you are smarter then this hot take sun

Seeking recommendations for a simple #Android image editor that has the ability to draw on screenshots and be set as the default for editing system wide. Would prefer something as close to iOS as possible, and FOSS

@sun does any other fedi software other then Pleroma and its forks support MRFs?

If your not getting Nicoled, are you even using the fediverse? It's sorta the whole point.

I know it might be tempting to name your new fediverse account @admin, @index, @updates, @blog, etc... If you do, your new name will be really hard for people to use on the fediverse. Most clients/servers are not very good at ranking usernames in the @mention auto complete field...

Does anyone physically have an @owncast tshirt?

I have seen very little fediverse merch out in the world. I saw @andypiper wearing some at FOSDEM and I have seen @kyva thinking about making some but I think this might be an underutilized funding source for the fediverse. Especially if they are made by humans not print on demand companies. Know any screenprinters active on the fedi that we can engage with?

Is there really not a standard to display battery status of Bluetooth headphones yet? The fact that I have to install a special app on Android to show if my AirPods are about to die is so silly.

If you are not using @phanpy as your portal into the #fediverse, your missing out! Here's a good view to try playing with it (without even logging in!)

Came across these obnoxious photos of Vint Cerf and Tim Berners-Lee. Neither the web nor the internet were "invented" by them, it's such an absurd statement to make. Yes they were were pivotal people who have done a lot to make the networked world we live in, but to continue to propagate this "Great man theory" is just so absurd...

eww why are you using canva, you should be using the ethical alternative: gnu not unix network object model environment image manipulation program!

@AudraTran @peertube @aroom mind posting a link? I'll follow up and write a github issue for this if you can share the details

@AudraTran @peertube @aroom hmm seems @Chocobozzz closed this issue this last month: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/4734 I wonder if this has actually been fixed yet though

Just noticed this "Open in the application? " banner on @framasoft's "What is the fediverse" @peertube video and I have the app installed thru @fdroidorg but it takes me to the Google Play download page for it instead of opening it in the app. Makes for a really bad fediverse experience, we need to figure out these sorts of flows and make sure they reliably work. #fedidev #peertube #fediverse

just learned that the developer of @pcalc and DragThing (James Thomson) was the one who wrote the first version of the Mac OS Dock

@Lodewijk @waag @sandradejong love that your doing this! (but can we please stop with this Trump inspired idium? Make******Again is honestly so so tiring it hurts my eyes to see it)

@sandradejong this phrasing was not in common usage before "MAGA" and (at least as an American English speaker) can not be used without making a nod to Trump even if its being used in a totally different context.

@tomjennings is someone who I could argue has had a foundational impact on the web in a similar fashion as Tim but is rarely mentioned in these sorts of places. But maybe this has more to do with what we view as "the web"

Another person who I am always surprised when people don't know of their work is Ward Cunningham (@k9ox), father of the wiki, and the other WWW, the WikiWikiWeb which was like an alternative take on the ideas that Ted Nelson originally published that Tim Berners-Lee riffed on.
