Absolutely! But I admit that I like the *bin softwares (K & M) because it’s the only one I’ve seen that really seamlessly integrates multiple parts of the Fediverse, and the new combined view makes it even smoother now.

I am an Mbin user. I love it.

90% of the Internet is made up of lurking.

Can we fix tea with the handyman’s secret weapon?

I knew that there was some kind of unifying force in the Fediverse. Thanks for sharing it.

KDE Connect is probably one of my favorite pieces of software, ever.

PipePipe - the URL calls out the real name and function, NewPipe Enhanced. Covering more services with more reliability (including PeerTube).

Pure deathmatch? The Galaxy-class.

Cardassian Nor-class stations are strong, but not mobile. They wouldn’t be able to repair against a series of guerilla attacks in rapid succession from an enemy who’s got firepower to burn and warp energy to spare.

Nothing there except maybe the Intrepid can lay down a measure of the firepower a Galaxy-class has. Adding in secondary vessels, full torpedo loadouts, and even the possible crazy tactics like venting antimatter, it’s barely a question.

If Fediverse software starts encouraging monetization, I don’t think the userbase will even maintain the current strength.

Wait, you didn’t just set up a second account that had a 1970 birthdate?

I wanted to like Google+, but the way they forced it into YouTube ticked me off.

I want to use ed as a proper text editor, but xed has so many features I can’t turn it down anymore.

Mint includes both ed and sed.

No, for an SSD, you have to remove it from power and either apply load to specific capacitors, or use concentrated bursts of radiation.

I always thought it was “What You Give Is What You Get”.

So what? The best outcome is that someone issues a pull request that teaches you how to do what you did in a “better” way. The worst outcome is that someone starts using your code in an LLM and vibecoders learn your style.

Threads in microblogs baffle me too. Doubly if replies occur mid-thread. Tagging should be limited to the person being replied to and the OP, not everyone.

Oh, so the good idea from Bluesky of Starter Packs is now fully in Mastodon. I know that repost-quotes are in too, which is fun.

Character limits are a feature, not a bug. I liked the limit of 160 characters (with tags) on Twitter. It’s because of SMS, but called for brevity and clarity.

“[INSERT COMPANY] is an evil corporation” is a needless truism. All corporations are evil by definition.
