@freemo Wonderful!

We should have an announcement of the important relocation of ALL Qoto data processing and storage to EU locations.

Want to do it, or I can, just give me some basic info to work with.

@freemo Sounds Good.

#MarkDown, is #1 for me. Please?

@richcist
I have a few blog posts talking about my early days in computer networking -- pre-Internet, when local BBSes were the amazing thing we could rach via our home phonelines.

Great times deserve to be remembered. Been involved in many communities since.

@freemo

@freemo Is that Alex Gleason's script? I saw him mentioning it, and that it was for v.2.8.5 or so; it might break with newer versions too, no?

@richcist

Thought I would mention -- i posted here about an intriguing Japanese Fediverse client called The Desk.

It has many controls, and fill up the whole screen; your choice of how many panels, width, etc.

Post is here : https://qoto.org/@design_RG/104304046905131134

@freemo

@freemo The current release of Glitch Soc is 3.1.4 -- same version number as Eugen's.

Feel free to do what makes sense for you -- the Front End is the important bit for me, where they added polish, extras, elegant controls.

And MarkDown and HTML tag enhanced text formatting at the user's discretion.

I suggested a wholesale install of GS, patched with your additions, as a lesser labour intensive idea, compared to full Pleroma redevelopment.

@richcist

You might be able to locate some good accounts to follow for your specific area using Trunk -- sort of a Yellow Pages for the Fediverse.

@freemo

@freemo Could we consider a full switch into a Glitch-Social instance?

It would be easier for you to work it out, while a Pleroma move would take longer, need more experimentation, etc.

As a short term solution, with the Pleroma project remaining a goal post -- as it reduces system resources and hosting costs considerably.

Please consider !!

Koyu's migration seem to have gone perfectly. (17 GB database converted fine) I know you have extras added, but patching GS should be tons easier than a whole new platform.

Thank you !

@freemo Yes, the code was from Glitch-Social, and made available for plain Mastodon by Renato Lond's work on his own instance.

Quoting one of my own posts :

"** We thank Renato Lond, the admin from https://masto.donte.com.br/ for porting the code from GlitchSoc and creating a Mastodon version, which he added to the main project Git.

Renato pointed me to https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/8427 for the code in question. "

@richcist Glad to know that, Richard.

That is mostly thanks to Dr. Freeman, our admin here, who has tweaked the Full screen themes -- only two places I knew had the web client filling the full screen widths; here and Todon.nl.

Glad you joined us! @freemo meet Richard, who is a Grad student working for his next level, Physics major. Great area to be in, I love it.

@freemo There's been so much activity in the Local Feed (wonderful!) that you might have missed this.

Kyle is asking if the Blockades will come down.

I posted a bit and went back to reading our long discussion thread (linked inside).

And Gab is not showing in https://fediverse.space/ anymore

You Good with them Blockers ? LOL... 😜

@richcist Hello Richard and welcome! These guides can be very helpful, I always recommend them to new users.

Enjoy the network and all it has to offer. If you are new to using Mastodon, there's a good guide here: https://lifehacker.com/a-beginner-s-guide-to-mastodon-1828503235

We also have another new users guide, posted here : https://write.tedomum.net/rgx/suggestions-and-guidelines-for-new-users-written-by-mastodon-art-administrator

@miguel31416 @richcist Sim, como não? Será um prazer.

Já respondi ao novo tópico do Richard. Até já!

@richcist Hello Richard, and yes -- that is a pet peeve of mine.

I have a presentation topic in preparation here : https://discourse.qoto.org/t/mastodon-screen-use-in-wide-screen-displays-a-search-for-better-results/280

and plan to bring it to the GlichSocial Dev team for consideration.

It's usable, I am writing to you right now using this setup.

Take a look at the article, it has many full screenshots so you can see what choices we have. Ask any questions needed.

MarkDown, tu sais ce que c’est ? Apprenez-le avec un Tutoriel Interactif

🇫🇷 Le langage MarkDown est une forme simplifiée de création d’une variété de styles de texte. Tailles audacieuses, italicisées, de souligné, d’en-tête (texte), le tout dans des commandes beaucoup plus courtes et plus faciles que le langage Markup HTML classique.

Notez le nom, un jeu de mots sur la variante HTML (markup).

Si vous parlez le Français, il ya des moins ressources pour en apprendre davantage sur ce sujet et d’autres sujets technologiques.

Trouvé un blog ici qui explique les bases, en espagnol, et des liens vers un autre site avec un tutoriel interactif.

June's Patch Tuesday came overnight and was very quickly distributed.

I woke up in the morning, and my sleeping mode laptop was awaiting, to return to our work. But -- something had happened.

Browser windows (3) had been closed, and the maybe 80 or so tabs along with them. I have many tabs open for reference and research, in ongoing projects, etc. Plus various sites I am present and commenting thru the day.

The bad part really is that my browser Cookies seem to have zapped and I got logged out everywhere. Including Reddit, where I can't seen to get back in now, argh. (poor password recovery there, doesn't seem to work to send the required recovery email).

So -- be prepared, as it seems this pack has High Priority for installation.
