@stux in my mind probably between 3-5 so I checked my profile:

10 years!

Working on a new signature to append to all my posts:

written by a human ❤️

This is very DIY, I wrote it on a piece of paper, took a pic with my phone and sent it to my computer. You can still see the paper texture, but I think it adds a nice touch to it...

a screenshot of my canvas in Pixelmator Pro, as I try to adjust the contrast of a photo I took... my handwriting on a piece of paper that reads "written by a human"

@_elena if I get to this point, it feels like it would be nice to make a reproducible workflow so one could sign it each time, each post uniquely touched.

    @vkc HEY, you’re here! I watched your iPod and your grapheneos videos and they were superb. Keep it up!

    A poll for all users out there who do coding. Which code editor are you using? Boost OK for further reach...

    @marco have you tried https://zed.dev/ (overlook the AI hype)? I wonder how it fairs for blind users, as a new, cross-platform product.

    @miki @marco Ah, so it’s because the controls are being rendered inside the “sandbox” of a graphical output instead of native system controls being used? (Sorry for the layperson speak)

    That’s disappointing, and seems like a big software design hurdle to shift from now, if they decide to do the right thing and support accessibility.

    @miki Also, I wonder if this highlights the feat that @mitchellh has done with Ghostty, using native controls on different platforms. I hope that means Ghostty is able to support accessibility!

    @mitchellh Glad to hear it is being addressed on macOS, and sad to hear the situation on Linux. I think I’ve seen @aral raising a stink over accessibility limitations over there.

    Please prioritize shipping these 🙏🏻

    Proton uses a trustless architecture. End-to-end encryption and zero access encryption means we cannot decrypt your messages and hand them over to governments.

    Your privacy is mathematically ensured, and no election can change that.

    NONE of the replies here on Mastodon are adequate. None yet make me any closer to reinstalling any of your apps.
