I’m not entirely sure what people actually use it for, but I do regularly chuckle when I remember my (very manly man) father in law asking for help setting up his Pinterest account.

I’d second Joplin. They have lots of good sync options, including their own (pretty cheap) service. I just use the android app to read notes, but I agree it’s pretty clunky to take notes on android.

We have taught AI the most powerful human skill, self loathing.

In mormonism if you don’t do their special ceremonies and have multiple wives, you lose your dick for eternity. I learned that in Sunday school when I was 12 lol.

I’m not sure popular is the biggest goal right now. It would definitely be nice for federated platforms to gain a bigger user base, but while the tools are growing, it’s really inspiring just to think that people are willing to invest the (low or no profit) time and energy into making the internet a nicer place.

That’s kind of the idea. I miss the originality of old systems, but it seems like a lot of developers are prioritizing consistency and learnability for the sake of accessibility.

Just made it!

Done.

My grandma (decades ago) always went the other way, she wrote “Mr. Sarah Smith” for my grandpa’s name. Feminist icon.

It depends a lot on the person, but it always does me good to do something tactile after working all day on a computer. Cooking, baking, sketching, woodworking, Legos, hiking, that kind of thing. I’ve noticed it really helps me ground and be mindful.

Next version of Llama:

More than this it’s just a good way to build regular hand washing into a routine. You already use a restroom a few times a day at fairly regular intervals, so you only have a few hours worth of microbes on your hands at a time.

I was mormon. Thankfully my parents paid to traffic me, so I could afford to go to college and cut them off relatively soon after I got home.

I was threatened by local leaders and family if I didn’t go on a 2 year mission in another country, then when I got there, they:

• took my passport immediately and locked it in a building I couldn’t access
• required 12 to 16 hours of work a day, with discipline if productivity dropped
• refused to provide adequate food or medical care
• restricted my communication with my family
• assigned me a companion to surveil me 24/7 and report disobedience to leadership (and assigned me to surveil someone else)
• disciplined me when I was physically and sexually assaulted by other missionaries

I didn’t want to call it trafficking for a long time. I figured maybe God just had a weird way of doing things. But my spouse works at a recovery center for survivors of violence (including trafficking) and helped me realize that’s what it was.

A pretty big misconception is that trafficking has to look like selling slaves, and I agree that’s an egregious thing, but it can be a lot more broad than that.

There are a lot of resources at https://humantraffickinghotline.org/en if you’re curious. My mission experience checked just about every box for labor trafficking, and I’ve heard very similar stories from a lot of other people who have been missionaries.

The church in the ad is particularly harmful. I had to fight to get out of it, and only after they took 10% of my income for years and trafficked me. They want money, power, and control, not increased numbers at their services.
