In-reply-to » I'm contemplating the idea of switching my activity pub instance from Gootosocial to a Pleroma one. While GTS is kinda cute (lightweight and easy to manage) of a software, the inability to fetch/scroll through people's past toots when visiting a profile or having access to a federated timeline and a proper search functionality ...etc felt like handicap for the past N months.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com good luck with that! Their installation requirements, and install document in general give me headache. While on the contemplating topic, I too am contemplating shutting down my ActivityPub altogether. No GoToSocial, no nothing. I am mostly a lurker, so will not miss it much.

In-reply-to » @lyse what’s on the one on the left, back? Looks… enticing! 🤤

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org no wonder I picked that cake (albeit coincidentally), I adore almonds, and hazelnuts! Your teammates are absolutely amazing, dude! A very nice project farewell! On leaving places I have a small anecdote.

I know someone who on 3 February 2004 left his job to go elsewhere. At the time his teammates threw a party, and gave him a very nice portable storage. Twenty days later, he returned, and jokingly they asked him for the storage, and money spent on farewell party back. I heard, from a close source, that he gave them his middle finger, but don’t quote me on that. 😂😂😂

In-reply-to » Ah, the collateral damage of ActivityPub bridges...

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, it is only Manton (with which I don’t see eye to eye) for now. I am simply anticipating the issue, rather than experiencing it fully right now. If efforts continue on this direction, you see what I am writing about, right?

In-reply-to » @bender a mobile phone camera doesn't cut it because it cant take long videos. I would say like the cheapest possible tbh! it doesn't have to be an amazing grade a camera, just something that will record in decent quality for long periods of time! I mostly want it to make vlogs :p

@kiwu@twtxt.net I see. I have no experience on the matter, sadly. :-( I am sure you can find plenty of recommendations online. Beware of anything below $100 (you will find plenty of cheap, but they are, indeed, cheap in the whole sense of the word). I’d say, a decent one will start around $250-$300, and up.

In-reply-to » I have a question! I'm looking for a small personal camera(specifically good for videos because that's what I'll use it for) that's cheap enough for a teen to afford but also actually good. Do any of you tech people have any good recs?

@kiwu@twtxt.net at what price range are you looking to keep your expenses? A mobile phone camera doesn’t cut it?

In-reply-to » since there are quite literally no note taking apps that work for me, i've began writing my own! to get started real quick i adapted the core part of bbycll's backend and it works so nicely — which speaks volumes to the quality of the code! should really break it out into a custom framework. i'm also realizing how easy it would be to get bbycll v1 ready...but this is probably more important since it'll allow me to get my life in order ^^'

@zvava@twtxt.net I am waiting for that v1, so that I can start using it. 🙏🏻
