finished reading Legends & Lattes 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
A lovely little story about an ex-adventurer who turns her orcish hand to opening a coffee shop. Everyone is nice except for the odd dickhead who provides narrative tension. Imagine the Discworld with hygge instead of satire.

@Chris Trottier @Julian Fietkau There are now full GitLab repos about this for everyone looking to contribute:
- Server-wide theme
- Userstyle (works everywhere, but only at the browser level with the Stylus addon)
To me NewPipe is genuinely one if the greatest apps ever created.
Reply your favourite Open Source apps, please. I must explore.

Seeking help! Does anyone know where I can buy Iota-Carrageenan nasal spray (that doesn’t have saline in it) to be delivered in the U.S.? Looking for same ingredients as Betadine, which has been discontinued.
Do not send any other non Iota-Carrageenan nasal spray, that is not what I need. Iota-Carrageenan only 🙏

January 21, 2025- “Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Has Surged Since The Pandemic, Study Reveals” “ Scientists are growing concerned that infections of the SARS-CoV-2 virus may be triggering more cases of chronic fatigue syndrome or myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS).
A new study has found that six months or longer after a SARS-CoV-2 infection, participants were 7.5 times more likely to meet the diagnostic criteria for ME/CFS than those who had not been infected. “ - sciencealert.com/chronic-fatig…

I cannot get over the incredibly stupid ways in which ActivityPub / fediverse is being mismanaged.
The UX sucks & bad. No web developer in their right mind is going to say "Hey, lets add Share With Mastodon buttons on our pages". I saw one site that did and it prompts users to enter the URL of their home instance before the share can go through.
If fedi is like Email, then why doesn't activitypub have a protocol prefix (like Email) to avoid this problem?!

Here is an example of how #activitypub doesn't work alongside the Web:

Note the Mastodon 'Share' link which is: mastodon.social/share?text=Che…
Why am I being asked to login when I'm already logged in to mas.to _and_ infosec.exchange? Do you have any idea how confusing and off-putting this is for non-techie users??
Trump has free rein over Dutch government data
The Netherlands relies heavily on American IT service providers such as Microsoft, Google and Amazon for the storage of government data.IO+
When I first heard of #Solid, I thought it was a pipe dream.
But this looking more and more real as time goes on, and if so, it will solve one of my biggest complaints about the Internet: how to manage digital identity.

Person in Switzerland (on Reddit):
Neurologist: "before the pandemic, his whole team of 3 people, who deal with the ME/CFS cases here, treated 10 patients PER YEAR. Now, after Covid19, he alone sees 5 patients PER WEEK to determine and/or treat patients for ME/CFS"

Apps for keeping track of book collection
I’ve been using Libib for the last couple of years, but the app is clunky, laggy, and has annoying glitches and lacks what feel like basic features like being able to search by tag without scrolling through a list of literally every single tag you’ve…Trending Books

Do we have any outdated metaphors that hold (soil) ecology back?
