Can you run Signal with basically no iOS or Android devices right now and still do the (mandatory) prove-your-phone-id steps?
It feels like very near future I, and everyone else who cares about computing autotonomy, we're all gonna have to start runnin' the Linux phones, no matter how non-ideal that user experience is right now
@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber I once talked with someone who had set up a Signal account while trying not to use any Android or iOS devices. I believe part of what they did was use some emulation, including the Android SDK. There's a step where one has to scan a QR code. To get around that: the SDK includes a sandbox for testing camera functionality, and lets the user "walk" around a little "room" -- and you can put specific images on the "wallpaper".
For tags.pub , have you decided how a user (of tags.pub) would determine the URL to the actor for a hash-tag?
Does it involved a WebFinger look-up?
Or, another /.well-known/ look-up?
Or, will the URL pattern be documented. (Ex: /tags/{tagName} )
Or, something else?

@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber the prove-your-phone-id and ios/android requirement is precisely why i don't use signal 🙃
i really hate how certain parts of society require a phone number at all. i have a google voice number from like 17 or 18 years ago at this point that i got before i even had a phone. i would prefer not to use it, but unfortunately my medical provider requires sms 2fa and only supports sms 2fa. banks are also notorious for this.

使い終わったジャムのガラス瓶にはお湯を入れてのこっているジャムのお湯割りをつくる。蓋をして振ると空気が漏れる音がする。内圧が上がったのかな？下がったのかな？振り方に依ってはお湯がしみ出してくることもあるから内圧は上がったのかな。お湯を振ったりジャムが溶けたりすることで気化する分があるのかな？

One Album for - and from - every year of my life.
It's just a list for now, but it might be a blog post at some point, maybe.
Some years were very hard (i.e. 1992, so much great stuff), others were simple. Either way, I had fun doing this list, and I would be curious to see lists of other folks. Use whatever format you're comfortable with.
Oh, and boosts for reach are cool, if you don't mind.

@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber It can be done with flare (https://flathub.org/en/apps/de.schmidhuberj.Flare) and with signal-cli.
@cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber question, aren't there degooled Android versions that would also work? That's been my backup plan since I have a pixel and I think that's the line that they do the most work on... or am I missing something obvious?
@Canageek @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber I think the issue is when these phones break and there are no new android phones that can be used due to hardware lockdown

Apple Releases Xcode 26.3 With Support for AI Agents From Anthropic and OpenAI https://www.macrumors.com/2026/02/26/apple-releases-xcode-26-3/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Apple Releases Xcode 26.3 With Support for AI Agents From Anthropic and OpenAI
After several weeks of testing, Apple today released Xcode 26.3, an update that allows developers to use tools like Anthropic's Claude Agent and OpenAI's Codex for app creation directly in Xcode. With support for agentic coding, Xcode can complete more complex app development tasks autonomously. Apple worked with Anthropic and OpenAI to configure their agents for use in Xcode and to ensure that AI models can access a full range of Xcode features.

me in 2022: make everything a native app, preferably a CLI. no browser apps ever if possible.
me in 2026: I don’t trust anything except my browser or a full VM to open untrusted media in a decent sandbox.
hell has frozen over and I don’t hate the idea of web chat apps, provided they run in an actual browser and not an Electron app.

Hi, yes, welcome to Mozilla Burger. It's true our burgers come with asbestos but the good news is you can pick it off yourself. Look how easy that is. No we can't make a burger without it and let you add it yourself later. Why would we do that?
👋 Hi all, I’m available now for short/medium term engagements.
I can optimize, overhaul, or rework any of:
* CI/CD workflows/pipelines
* deployment processes
* cloud infrastructure
* data pipelines
* API docs
* dev environments
Please DM, or contact me via https://aviflax.dev
A thing that's super frustrating is how the existence of service workers means entire groups of websites (say, all Google service simultaneously) will suddenly stop working unless I go into the Firefox "Task Manager". This is a critical part of using a computer like cmd-opt-esc was in Mac OS 7 or ctrl-alt-del was in Windows 95, but it's not foregrounded as well as it was in those old OSes. The browser recreated a problem from 90s computing but didn't recreate the solutions from that era

If you choose not to pay your $100/yr then if you want to write code for a new apple iOS device you need to call technical support to get them to reset your list of allowed devices. It's nuts. But now my flashcard app runs on my phone again.
Anyway, this is one of my favourite flags in my flag deck. Every country (or state or overseas territory) ought to have a flag inspired by Atari Adventure.
(Can you guess whose flag it is?)

I “love” these little AI slop artifacts that creep into all our codebases now… But who knows, maybe in the “We have to clean up the Asbestos mess”-future these can be helpful…
Current favourite in one of ours, deployed in production is in a blocklist:
