Edit: Fixed! github.com/joinloops/loops-ser

Starting to see performance issues in Loops when multiple people upload at the same time, so I'm adding a new job queue to process one video at a time.

Not a bad problem to have 😅

Still hard at work on content for the Steam page 😅

Spent this week working on code mechanics and making cats for the demo. Almost done with the models, just 2.5 left to go

Can't show the full cast yet, but here are two fluffy freelancers based on concepts by a follower. They are working hard.. or at least pretending to, just like real cats 🐱💻

Over 32,000 medieval manuscripts transcribed in four months using AI

Medievalists can now access automated transcriptions of 32,763 digitised medieval manuscripts, produced in just four months as part of a project called CoMMA—a large-scale corpus designed to make manuscript texts searchable and analysable at a scale that would be impossible to tackle by hand.

medievalists.net/2026/01/32000

Original paper:

⚠️ dieser Toot enthält rhetorische Fragen

Ich verstehe wirklich nicht warum wir gerade jeden Monat "weils für die Wirtschaft so schwer ist", eine Errungenschaft der Arbeitnehmerrechte diskutieren und zur disposition stellen. Ich frag mich ernsthaft warum niemand auf die bahnbrechende Idee kommt einfach weniger scheiße zu den Menschen zu sein und das Problem so zu lösen. Ahhhhhh

일본 스트리트 포토하면 모리야마 다이도 선생이 제일 유명한데... 이 분 사진들은 너무 안에 든 게 많아서 뭐라 평하기가 힘들다. 수많은 사조들이 한 번에 나타나는데 이걸 우연에 기대 뽑아낸다니 대가 소리는 아무나 듣는게 아니구나 싶음.

이후 수많은 사람들이 따라 했지만 원본 근처라도 가 본 사진은 지금까지 하나도 보지 못했다.

New idea about and starter packs: a call for local instance solution.

What about chance to automatically follow publicly shared existing lists - but limited only to local instance? This seems to be relatively harmless and practical at the same time.

Technically, it would be trivial. No change to ActivityPub needed. The private lists are already local, in database. The accounts are already followed by some local user. No overhead. The functionality is already here, actually. Just hidden from GUI.

From UX point of view, the experience would be more comfortable, than downloading and uploading CSV files, which is current method. It would be easy. It would work just like "featured hashtags", except you would mark some of your lists as public (at least: it would motivate me to maintain the lists and think twice, who to include).

Politically, the instances have now very strong moderation powers, but all these powers are of restrictive nature. There is no real locally configurable tool to recommend anything... perhaps, this is driven by fear, that it would be useful for marketing or propaganda purposes, who knows. There is chance to recommend accounts to new users, but it ends there. No other interaction of moderator or instance administrator with local users. (Not even a way to locally announce eg. change of instance moderation rules!)

Chance to toggle local private lists as public for local users of instance would change the balance of impact just very slightly, because all of list members might appeared in Federated timeline anyway - but randomly, without any categorizing information.

Instead of huge, unified public Starter Packs, we would have many local Starter Packs with local impact. There would be no friction with domain bans or individual bans, because of course, only locally non-censored accounts and domains would be visible (by definition: because you cannot add locally invisible accounts to private lists).
