Excellent.
#Venezuelan music night tonight at a local bar. I'm in!

@[email protected] honestly, I'd say it's not worth it.
First you have to find an SSO provider that works with all the self-hosted stuff, then configure each self-hosted thing to work with said provider, if that's even a feature.
Just logging into each of them independently it's massively easier to handle, in my opinion

@[email protected] @[email protected] the problem comes at the point where you've learned everything - or at least learned everything you enjoy.
Up until that point I think I'd be fine.

I would hate for it to end up like a Black Mirror - White Christmas situation though!

@[email protected] perhaps something like @[email protected] ?
I believe there's a forum module that can be added.

@[email protected] @[email protected] i do enjoy the poetry that the day in history where nothing significant of note happened has become a significantly noteworthy day due to the significance of nothing noteworthy happening

@[email protected] also, DT looks a lot like Susan Boyle circa 2009 in that image.

Sorry, Susan, for such a horrible insult, you do not deserve it.

@[email protected] anyone else have "they're not LLMs. They're trained on open data" in their #Mozilla buffoonery bingo card?

Definitely something up with my #GoToSocial instance - missing lots of toots in the feed, that I can happily see on trustworthy #snac

I may be snac-based for a little while as I sort that out

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] you can change the kernel option in the bootloader at boot time

Such a lifesaver!

@[email protected] @[email protected] to add further ambiguity, I think it's called "reblog" in the Masto API 😂

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] podman is the better option - run it rootless, no firewall shenanigans

But... FreeBSD jails are the gold standard 😁

@[email protected] @[email protected] and that's all it needs to be 🙂

@[email protected] the manual method is always the best 😆

@[email protected] i managed to watch it live!
Great speech, well done!

@[email protected] @[email protected] this product may have been manufactured in a curl handling environment

@[email protected] I might - wish it had a few more themes than just light and dark, but it does work really well with #snac

Sorry everyone that just got a follow request - I just did my quad-yearly export/import of follows from #GoToSocial to #Snac

I still use both, but like to keep my follows in sync...ish

Oh no... I've started using #Phanpy and I think I kinda like it

WHY CAN'T I JUST DECIDE ON AN APP AND KEEP USING IT!?

@[email protected] Brian Blessed may have had something to do with it

(Yes I know he was not the villain, but I can't resist bringing up Brian Blessed at any opportunity)

@[email protected] ah, that's a better way to say it, I should have said that - their bewildering love for Omarchy

@[email protected] yeah, really cool - just need a USBC plug and something on the end of an HDMI cable and you're away
With a keyboard too of course. I've looked up foldable portable ones but they're all bluetooth and... Well,... Bluetooth and BSD 🫣

@[email protected] think I've got an old PCIe somewhere from my old laptop that did work. I'm inspired to grab that and give it a go.

Truth be told, I'm a little miffed with my Framework - yes, there's the racism, but more practically it's just a bit clunky, the exchangeable panels on the top aren't great and overall it's not worth the money, I don't really want to spend more on it... But I'll relax about it in 6 months or so

@[email protected] @[email protected] yeah, I'm considering it, but I've heard that one has issues with the AMD chipset and the AX200 is a better fit.
Still...i can get a card and pop it in.

@[email protected] i really need to get #FreeBSD on one of my laptops
But I bought the wrong laptop - FW16, unsupported WiFi card (though work is underway)
My spare is a 2015 Macbook Air - I've tried getting FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD on it but all fail for various reasons

I do have #OpenBSD on my portable desktop though (minisform S100 - great little thing) so all is not lost!

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] it's come a long way in the last couple of years

We even have custom emojis now! which was always a "ha, no chance!" thing
(Just not in user names...yet)

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] i think it has changed since v18 or 19 but previously posts were hidden in the home timeline, regardless of what app you're using. But there's still something going on - i see more posts in snac than I do in gts that's for sure.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] there was (perhaps still is, but it's slightly modified now) a situation where if someone you followed replied to a comment by somebody you don't follow, you would not see that reply in your home, local or federated timelines (though it is shown in the followed person's profile).
I get it, and I totally see why that design decision was made, but it wasn't what I was used to coming from Pleroma. Not sure if the same behavior exists in mastodon.

Anyway, #snac doesn't have any of those types of timeline masking things, so it's much nicer in that respect 🙂

@[email protected] @[email protected] it can be, definitely. And GtS hides a lot of posts (by design - fair enough) which i didn't like - I used to compile my own fork that "fixed" it, but haven't maintained that in a while - I just swap over to my snac instance check up on that instead.

@[email protected] @[email protected] oooh, I just switched over to my snac instance as my gts one is being a bit silly.
One of the first posts I see is this!

And Honk is also awesome 🪿🪿🪿🪿🪿

@[email protected] "Whatever we build here we can keep."

Wise words indeed!
