We have a new homestead on the Fediverse. To borrow an analogy from @kyle, We're trying out our own tiny house. Let's see how this goes over here in our own space thanks to @mastohost #NewDigs

#phosh at 240x320 is surprisingly usable

Exciting news! We've set up a new account using our own domain at @reality2cast@reality2.social and I'm about to make the move. #Migration

On this day in 1955, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on the bus for a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama

So, here we are in the #fediverse. i am writing this on #mastodon, you could be writing back in a comment in peertube. Talking about #peertube, i just created a playlist of my video activism. check it out ( just press play): https://videos.coletivos.org/w/p/kDRGVMapcMBvo8vsSMdYYK

I still genuinely do not get why anyone would ever want to use brave

I get chrome, I get chromium, ungoogled chromium, firefox and the forks, vivaldi, whatever else, but brave??? it's literally the cryptobro capitalism homophobia browser. why would you use a browser where adware is A Feature. why would you Want That

Update: this porter is carbonated and delicious. Why am I paying $11/six-pack (on sale!) for average craft beer? #brewing #homebrew

phosh-osk-stub will soon be able to turn on completion opportunistically: When the text-input has the "completion" hint set it's turned on, otherwise it defaults to off. E.g. it's disabled in #chatty's search field but automatically switched on in the chat view :

#phosh #librem5

Last week an update arrived in PureOS with improvements for #Librem5 call audio. You should be more legible to your interlocutors during calls; also, the phone now automatically switches to external wired microphone once connected. The whole audio path went through a big overhaul, allowing for hardware volume control with zero-cross and reducing unnecessary amplification that could cause distortions.

Haven't seen people complaining about the changes so far - that's a good sign :)

I finally got around to updating mmsd-tng to libsoup3 and I released a beta edition here!: https://gitlab.com/kop316/mmsd/-/tags/2.0.beta

What I will say is it works for me (tm), but I would like to make sure it works for:

1) Verizon Wireless USA and,
2) a carrier that has an MMS proxy.

I would sincerely appreciate anyone that meets those categories and can test to please do, and let me know if it works.

A maior parte dos dispositivos onde o Ubuntu Touch corre são dispositivos comerciais off the shelf, de fabricantes de dispositivos android, para os quais a nossa comunidade faz ports de Ubuntu Touch. como podes ver em: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

Os dispositivos da @volla são o resultado de uma parceria desta empresa com um fabricante maior relevante no mercado a Gigaset (antiga Siemens) e os seus componentes são comuns no mercado.

As a blind individual, I have to say that #Caturday on #Mastodon is far far more enjoyable then at #Twitter, where the vast majority of cat photos are not described.

It is also been fascinating for me to hear descriptions written by those who sent the image, immediately followed by Apple image recognition’s attempts to describe the same image. Only rarely does that add anything to the ALT, & often directly contradicts it.

There is no auto magical solution to image description. It is something best done by a human, for only that human can explain the “why” of the image: the reason that image was chosen to speak so eloquently without words for those who can see it. ALT allows you to provide those words.
