The new Linux desktop for Mastodon works nicely with filters:

Oh If I really want I can see it,

I am testing #tokodon as client

Well that feels pretty good even in this funk.

Merge request went through!
I'm running the nightly build on my Kindle fire with my updates.

Weird pride. I've pushed so much code in my lifetime, and yet this is the first one to an open source program I did not create from scratch

After 30 years of choosing to compute in an open source lifestyle, contributed & made the experience better

Certainly felt better than quiet contemplation of the state of the world

#Linux #OpenSource #kde #tokodon

Щойно побачив, що Токодон НЕ зберігає альт-текст, який я додаю до картинок.
Тобто все, що я постив через Токодон (а це більше половини постів) з розлогими описами — тупо марно.

Just found out that Tokodon did NOT save the alt text that I added for the pictures. Meaning all I previously posted via Tokodon (that's more than a half of everything) with lengthy descriptions was a waste of time and effort.

#mastodon #tokodon #bug

I wrote a thing to ensure I stop bothering MrsCopilot with tech ephemera.

I really want to like #Tokodon but...

It chokes displaying quoted posts in notifications. just whiffs and you may scroll no more.

YOU CANNOT SELECT TEXT IN A POST.
I sometimes read unconsiously with the highlighter, and now I am SUPER concious of it.

The AltText Editor is always popped up BEHIND the post editor.

It doesn't support creating quoteposts either.

Otherwise its prety great.

#KDE

So you may notice the #Tokodon label at the bottom of my posts today.

Every once in a while you have to bite the bullet &

sudo apt install kde-full

Just to get the lay of the plasma land as it were.

Tokodon was amongst those remaining kde 3Gbs not yet but now installed.

I'm still evaluating it, but I will say 3 things I like

Drafts

Themes

Detached Composer

Ton of other features, multiple accounts, instances, etc...

Desktop App available across platforms @ https://apps.kde.org/tokodon/
#KDE

Awe, I just noticed I can login to #SDF masto again now in #tokodon!

While playing with new #kde software #keepsecret which shows compatible secrets databases, allowing direct editing of all saved passwords across the KDE ecosystem. Nice new kwallet editor!

(I'd post a screenshot but I don't have any image scrubbers available)
