trying to decide if this would be a good or bad idea
@thomasfuchs This is a false dichotomy. Calls for banning animal meat are like saying “defund the police”. No one is expecting an immediate, 100% moratorium, nor complete and total abolition. It’s about reducing suffering (banning inhumane treatment for food like foie gras, etc), improving the environment (regulating factory farms) and encouraging options to support all of the above. I would hope it's obvious that there will always be allergen-friendly options for folks who need them!

Of course other clients have done this sort of thing since forever, but Tapestry isn't really a typical "client" app because it's not targeting a single service.

Not too many apps let you put RSS, Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr, Micro.blog, Reddit (and more) posts all in the same chronological timeline let alone support some of the underlying service's native actions like fav, boost, bookmarking, etc.

Tapestry is also extensible - you can even write your own connectors for different services.

Unfortunately despite all this power, Tapestry has waaaay fewer subscribers than Twitterrific had. Would be quite helpful if there were (a lot) more! 🙂

When Nazi Germany invaded Denmark in 1940, 17-year-old Arne Sejr secretly distributed a short pamphlet called "Ten Commandments for Danes." It inspired countless acts of defiance and led thousands of ordinary people to save 99% of their Jewish friends and neighbors by helping them to safety in Sweden.

Given the modern parallels to the past and inspired by Arne Sejr, a group of artists and organizers created "Ten Commandments of Defiance."

@gingerbeardman Best of luck I guess, but joining not only an AI company but an extra unethical one is...a choice. https://blog.cloudflare.com/perplexity-is-using-stealth-undeclared-crawlers-to-evade-website-no-crawl-directives/
Perplexity is using stealth, undeclared crawlers to evade website no-crawl directives

Perplexity is repeatedly modifying their user agent and changing IPs and ASNs to hide their crawling activity, in direct conflict with explicit no-crawl preferences expressed by websites.

My cold take: #godot is being massively under-utilized as a non-game software development framework.
My warm take: The lifecycle of nodes is simpler and safer than a React component.
My hot take: #Godotengine is technically the largest competitor of react native and the natural successor to electron
@krazyjakee 100% agree. CSS is undefeated for GUIs, but Controls in Godot are fantastic. A Godot app is likely to be far more performant than Electron too, especially in terms of animations/effects/shaders.
