Big appreciation to @Jeremy for building, promoting, and maintaining nwt.social.

In a place like Yellowknife, creating digital infrastructure that is locally rooted actually matters. It is easy to use global platforms. It is harder to build something.

Genuinely curious: how can local businesses meaningfully support independent servers and communities like this without turning it into advertising?

oh good, the “you’re just doing purity culture” thing is already taking hold over on bluesky

so the line is now supposed to be that local LLMs are good and moral and SaaS LLMs are bad, when local LLMs come from the same fucked system that’s also actively making it impossible to buy computing hardware powerful enough to run even a shitty local LLM? is that about right? I’m supposed to clap cause someone with money is running a plagiarism machine but slower and shittier on their desktop?

Sup is meant for those who use Snapchat, Whatsapp and Messenger daily, but also brings a clean and refined experience to people who prefer other protocols.

The modular nature of Sup separates identity from protocols to connect you to your people, wherever they are, with push notifications, dark mode, and even video chat!

This should exist, but it would be difficult to grow from scratch...

Unless you had two platforms you could integrate with first class support.

😎

Got nerdsniped by a request from @thisismissem.social and made a little visualizer tool demonstrating the various ways you can represent "how long is this string?" in Unicode:

data.runhello.com/bs-limits/

- Bytes (in the standard UTF-8 recording)
- UTF-16 (irrelevant except in JS, where it's relevant)
- Codepoints (unicode characters)
- Grapheme clusters (the visual "characters" you see on screen)

And how the divergence of the two relates to Bluesky's "unusual" post limit rules.

@mcc At one point, at least, the Bluesky Android app and web app were calculating this differently.

I had to use the app to get those flags into my profile, because on the site they'd each increase the character count by a lot more.

(And actually... it looks like this is still the case??)

I recently posted about archive.today (also archive.is, archive.ph, archive.fo, archive.li, archive.md, and archive.vn) using its archive links to launch a ddos attack against a blogger they accused of doxing them: mathstodon.xyz/@11011110/11602

That attack triggered (at least, the English part) to discuss banning archive.today links, and the ensuing discussion turned up evidence that (as part of the same dispute with the same blogger) archive.today had also tampered with its archived content to falsify certain names in old archived links: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedi

This led to a quick close of the discussion and a consensus to remove all archive.today links from Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedi
For the same reasons I have removed all archive.today links from my blog, where I had been occasionally using them as a convenient way to access paywalled content. I suggest that others remove their links as well, lest you unwittingly become part of additional ddos attacks and falsification.

@Mastodon is changing course when it comes to how people join the platform. In late 2022, the team decided to send sign-ups directly to their server in order to make onboarding more straightforward. But that didn't align with the promise of decentralization. Here, Community Director @haubleshannah aubry explains the new approach to server recommendation, along with some other ways Mastodon is helping build community.

i probably shared this one already, but i have just finished building a digital version of a 300+ printed photo album just now, and it's so much work that i feel i need to share *something* out of it (the whole album can't be shared publicly because it's too personal)

night cityscale consisting of Montreal's iconic "FARINE FIVE ROSE" warehouse with the "bonaventure" freeway snaking around it, with car lights dragging on it due to a long exposure. the Samuel-de-Champlain bridge over the Saint-Lawrence river is being built in the background.
