I’ve been thinking something like this. I don’t know what the right technical answer is (lexicon, metadata…)

I just wanted to start presenting the things I think about (which are similar to how I look for hosting companies) as I’m gathering some info.

I have some smaller compartment boxes that I’ve had for 20+ years so I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to think to store the thread like this.

It’s a really useful style of box. Would be perfect for legos. I think I saw somewhere someone storing hotwheels in them too.

Someone told me to watch their blog for updates on something tech related recently & it had no rss. 🙄

Well this used to work to search but doesn't seem to be working right now?
tangled-search.bigmoves.deno.net

I am also starting to search Semble sometimes for things ATproto related. I don't know rust well enough to know adjacent search terms. No need to log in for search semble.so/search

This is why I download the ics file from smokesignal and throw it in my own calendar (because I have ALSO misread the timezone.)

I think it’s a specific company having done something interesting and I need to test it with something more obscure. I don’t think you had a hand in it 🤔… this time. 😂

Semi wrong - one has done something under the hood that let me connect and post.

Erroring on a number of others so I have ask some people some questions.

I was wrong about the app passwords on SMM tools so I deleted my previous message...

This is the list of the testing accounts I’ve set up. If I add any more, they will probably go here:

I have set up SO many different PDS accounts recently and I'm going to start pointing it out... I just kinda dread this process too.

I knew it was coming back when I did the first rounds of social media management app tests. It goes beyond that though.

Ok I actually thought the dry erase marker thing was kinda interesting until you said she got mad when you moved a window. 😂

I was immediately reminded of Schoolhouse Rocks for some reason and this gif shows apparently why that was my first thought:

Kinda wish it were grayed out just to let you know it’s there but you’re not connected. 🤔

I had issues where mine had disconnected and I was alerted when I opened the Germ app. If it looks like it won’t reconnect, try removing the text version from your bio? (Make a copy in case I’m wrong. I started over before I realized what might be keeping it from reconnecting.)

Heads up that I had an issue with “Your Germ card has been disconnected from ATProto (Bluesky).”

Couldn’t get it to “reconnect” so I moved on to “Delete disconnected card” and then couldn’t create a new one …

Until I realized I needed to delete the existing germ text from my bluesky bio.

Only phone number I have that works with Signal is my cell #. I think I tried my ancient 888 # back when I had that even amongst others.

Doesn't fix the focus mode issue I don't think either. So maybe I would really like a second app for that granularity anyway.

Groups moving from discord to signal seems the likely thing to happen here.

The question I still have for @signal.org is: separate acct for business needs when? Or better, a 2nd app?

I have issues with notification granularity / prioritization for biz & personal being all jumbled into one thing.

Isn’t Lüften more energy efficient? 🙃
