Uh I just got DMed by the COO of Tumblr asking about hiring contractors to make us fully #indieweb compliant, and possibly even #fediverse integration. Anyone out there looking for work?
I did it. Most likely.
After nearly five years of running it on the precipice of terminal collapse, my homelab has reached a state where I do not consider it worth the effort to keep the current installation alive and running.
Time to apply the lessons learned in those five years. Time to choose a decent distro. Time to go with virtualization. Time to go with a modern filesystem that supports snapshots.
Nuke and pave, my friend, nuke and pave.
Living in the #Netherlands?
Sign this #petition to the #Dutch Government with a plea for fair #education in the classroom and to keep children away from #privacy-infringing #SurveillanceCapitalism platforms they (and their teachers) are forced to use.
Kmonad appears to be very promissing! I am going to run a few tests later Today. At the moment I just copied and pasted the "home row" configuration (https://precondition.github.io/home-row-mods) and it is working fine. :)
Thanks for the tips, @doenietzomoeilijk!
BTW, #Framework is also looking for an open source firmware engineer, if you know anyone who might be looking for a pretty cool job. https://jobs.lever.co/framework/4c33ea5e-5580-4eaa-ac84-0b2651caf76b
I have setup a Trunk instance for the #Dutch speakers.
Voor de Nederlands-taligen onder ons: de Trunk is bijna klaar. Suggesties voor lijsten hoor ik graag. Ook als je op de lijsten wilt.

Als je Trunk niet kent: het is een tool waar je mensen kunt zoeken om te volgen op de Fediverse.
Graag boosten als je NL-talige volgers hebt ;-)

An amazing read about different kinds of #notes: https://www.baldurbjarnason.com/2022/the-different-kinds-of-notes/ . Decent insight into why there's no single tool that fits all people and situations, something that's very helpful to realize for perpetual best-tool-seekers like me. 😉
