In-reply-to » @kat That's what I was going for at first, I already have my compose file to go up -d, but then I took a look at a couple of #Snac instances at the last second and they looked pretty dope! Now I'm stuck in my own head 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Mainly the bsd.cafe ones. I like how the minimalist single column profiles look. Image embeds are full width and reading through threads feels nice (as in it doesn’t feel like pealing layers upon layers of a fresh onion).

How to Enable Automatic Dark / Light Mode on iPhone & iPad

Furthermore, you can set the automatic enabling of Dark and Light mode to follow sunset and sunrise, or a custom schedule, whichever you prefer. As you probably … [Read More](https://osxdaily.com/2025/05/02/how-to-enable-automatic-dark-light … ⌘ Read more

Confession:

I’ve never found microblogging like twtxt or the Fediverse or any other “modern” social media to be truly fulfilling/satisfying.

The reason is that it is focused so much on people. You follow this or that person, everybody spends time making a nice profile page, the posts are all very “ego-centric”. Seriously, it feels like everybody is on an ego-trip all the time (this is much worse on the Fediverse, not so much here on twtxt).

I miss the days of topic-based forums/groups. A Linux forum here, a forum about programming there, another one about a certain game. Stuff like that. That was really great – and it didn’t even suffer from the need to federate.

Sadly, most of these forums are dead now. Especially the nerds spend a lot of time on the Fediverse now and have abandoned forums almost completely.

On Mastodon, you can follow hashtags, which somewhat emulates a topic-based experience. But it’s not that great and the protocol isn’t meant to be used that way (just read the snac2 docs on this issue). And the concept of “likes” has eliminated lots of the actual user interaction. ☹️

PewDiePie | I installed linux
All I can say is.. what? I’m not even sure why this popped up in my youtube frontpage. I don’t generally watch PewDiePie, but in all honesty, it’s a pretty glowing review of Linux, Arch, Hyprland and more. He points out some warts and things here and there around compatibility, but all in all, “PewDiePie takes aim at Microsoft” was not on my 2025 Bingo card…
