Enhancements and additions are welcome.

As well as images, you can attach audio or video files to Mastodon posts. Here are some assorted tips:

-There is no length limit on audio or video files, but they have to be below a certain file size (usually 40 megabytes). Check with your server admin if you're unsure about the file size limits.

-You can replace the thumbnail with an image file by clicking on the "choose image" button.

-On audio files, remember to add a text description of the sound for deaf users.

-On video files, remember to add text descriptions of the pictures for blind users, and of the sound for deaf users.

-Silent MP4 videos will be treated as animated GIF images.

-Audio can be MP3, OGG, WAV, FLAC, OPUS, AAC, M4A, 3GP

-Video can be MP4, M4V, MOV, WebM

Thanks to the lack of a time limit, one legendary Mastodon post had the Angelina Jolie film "Hackers" ridiculously compressed to fit within the file size limit. It was unwatchable 😁

PSA: We've updated the Maui Apps and the NX Software Center to version 2.1.2 and their configuration files and settings.

To update, do the following.

You will also find a new application, Bonsai.

Bonsai is a Git repository manager built with MauiKit, similar to the GitHub Desktop client.

Among the new changes in the NX Software Center is the addition of AppRepo (https://apprepo.de/) as a source, adding to AppImageHub (https://www.appimagehub.com/).

"Apprepo is a non-profit volunteer project."

Fediphoto Lineage is an app for Android phones which makes it as easy as possible to share photos on the Fediverse. You can follow at:

➡️ @fediphoto_lineage

It's available through @fdroidorg and has a page at https://f-droid.org/packages/com.fediphoto.lineage

It's based on an app by @pla, who enjoyed sharing pictures on the Fediverse while out and about. PLA sadly died in January 2021, and Fediphot Lineage aims to honour his memory by keeping his project alive.
