Feeling very happy with my dithering CLI. I was developing and using it today, to create an example image for the README. Felt fun and powerful to use, it has all the features I want.

Here's a sneak peak of the interface. It'll probably be released this weekend.

Now that Signal is bundling a shitcoin and everyone is saying “b-but I just convinced like all 127 of my friends to switch from WA”, I feel I need to link this article again: Whatsapp and the domestication of users

Sequel: Keeping platforms open.

Platforms covered across both articles:

WhatsApp
Firefox + the Web
Signal
XMPP
Email
Matrix
(briefly) programming languages

Recognize the potential consequences of getting everyone on a platform before you make recommendations.

Reblogs welcome.

Seriously considering where I can use this license:

Browser Tabs: They are weird because users tend to place tabs that "belong together" in close proximity on the 1-dimensional tab row, like 2 web pages they want to switch quickly in between. However, tabs are exactly the tool that _prevent_ seeing both pages at the same time.

So users sit in front of a 27" 4k screen with one fully maximized browser window and switch tabs of web pages that display type at 5cm character height. (Exagerating but you get the idea.)

Update on the announced self-hostable #bandcamp alternative: Got tons of work done on the foundation over the last days (architecture, reading, transcoding, caching, syncing, configuration, cli arguments, ...). Today was the first time I did some design exporation (first glimpses attached - these are already in-browser screenshots of the functional interface, not mockups :)). I'm developing out in the open at https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/faircamp °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
