Deb Nam-Krane@ElleGray But...the price of eggs.
Jan BoddezWas thinking I should maybe distinguish between actual notes and replies. The way I used to, before I moved to WordPress and a block theme some two or three years ago. Have my notes section again look more like, you know, Mastodon.
Maybe I should move my “bookmarks” into a section of their own, too. Create my own little Delicious clone.
I initially decided against “explicit post types” because, well, post types, as far as “social readers” are concerned, are anyway implied by posts’ microformats. (Technically, an article, note, like or listen on this site, regardless of its URL, could be … anything.)
But … I already decided most people probably don’t care about my “listens” or “likes” … and moved them into a corner of their own. So why stop there?
Speaking of microformats, half my bookmarks should probably quotations instead—but then again, who’s keeping score?
Speaking of microformats, I recently learned about implied properties. Like, here’s me carefully, or so I thought, marking up a reply context, only for microformats parsers to, well, assume things.
So, yeah, despite me working on things like automatically adding microformats to just about any modern WordPress theme, and having a thing for semantic markup in general, I’m not entirely sure they’re it. My money’s on ActivityPub.
As far as I’m concerned, and Mastodon (and other social media applications), replies are notes. So I wouldn’t even be changing … very much at all. URLs would stay the same. Just thought it’d be nice to have them a little less in your face.
Also considering collapsing these little microformatted reply contexts—the introductory paragraph at the very start of this post (when viewed in a feed reader, or direcltly on this site, that is)—to just an “@-mention,” at least visually.

Extra defensiebudget onrealistisch? "De kosten van oorlog liggen veel hoger, dat proberen we te voorkomen"

Extra defensiebudget onrealistisch? "De kosten van oorlog liggen veel hoger, dat proberen we te voorkomen" | VRT NWS: nieuws
Als we nu niet investeren in defensie, dreigen we later veel meer te moeten betalen. Dat zegt Rob Bauer, ex-topmilitair binnen de NAVO. "We geven dat geld niet uit om oorlog te voeren, maar om het te voorkomen. Mocht het wel tot oorlog komen, dan liggen de kosten veel hoger."

I'm a little more hopeful, there are hard and easy problems on your list. All with fixes on our roadmap.
The "can't see all replies" is a deeply hard federation problem but we have an incoming fix for that!
On the other side, Improving DMs is something that requires no change to the API and can be easily done in the client. I'm working on that right now.
I see significant improvement in your "sins" over the next year.
