Stephen Fry put it very. Social media in a nutshell:

16 playful cutouts of e-commerce related icons, placed in a grid of 4 by 4 on a bamboo tabletop.

For a few months I have been working on a new web app. I've had the idea for years now, but it's such a massive undertaking that I never found the courage to actually go for it, until this year. Now I'm designing the first landing page. These #paper #cutouts give a good idea of what the app is about

It depends on whom you ask. The real problem is which licence to choose because true open-source licences will not allow you to discriminate. The closest you can get to prevent abuse from corporations is to use AGPLv3, but it won't prevent hem from making money off the codebase.

The moment I posted about 1001 Pieces, the project I’ve been thinking about for years, I felt it. That quiet presence at my side. An old friend. Or maybe more like a shadow.

Doubt!

I believe DHH said it once about considering it for basecamp.

bunny.net - The Global Edge Platform that truly Hops Hop on bunny.net and speed up your web presence with the next-generation Content Delivery Service (CDN), Edge Storage, and Optimization Services at any scale.

Although it's a third party, have a look at bunny.net 's streams. It's somewhere in-between self-hosting and a full on service like Vimeo/Youtube. Their player is highly configurable and really clean. And since their core business is CDN, performance is excellent.

Thank you!

Practical Accessibility is one of the best courses I did lately. Going in I thought I knew a bit about the subject, but I knew nothing.

It was a humbling experience filled with laughs, facepalms, and the occasional rooster crow. If you feel lost when it comes to #a11y, this is the course for you.

Open Web Advocacy is on the ground at the European Commission's 2025 DMA workshop 🇪🇺, pushing hard for real browser competition, web apps and a free & open web. Stay tuned for updates!

Love these!

Or ceramics...

I'm on the same board and switched to Zen for privacy reasons, which is quite enjoyable. I have high hopes for Ladybird, but that will be at least another year before the first Alpha release.

This little guy has been running around on my laptop for most of the day.

Proof of Scent

An abstract art piece featuring a complex pattern of lines and curves. The artwork is framed with a white border and is placed on a textured, concrete surface. The lines within the frame create a moiré effect, giving the illusion of depth and movement.

A close-up view of an abstract pattern that creates a moiré effect. The artwork consists of fine, closely spaced lines that are slightly curved, producing an illusion of waves and ripples. The colors in the image are predominantly shades of green and pink, which blend together to create a sense of depth and movement.

Three continuous lines in cyan, magenta, and yellow, each with slightly different distortion values. This is the first finished plot. It came a bit too dense, so I'm going to make a new one today with more whitespace.

Finalising the second layer (magenta) on this piece. This is a first try and I need to make some tweaks still.

Time for /e/OS?

We started on a huge, exciting project and there's very little time for other things right now (more on that later). But today I finally got around to plotting a few iterations of this sketch. Cold-pressed cotton paper with CMYK ink using fountain pens and pencil.

🎉 Path of least resistance 2025!

Recently started buying CDs again. I forgot how lovely the whole experience is. In part the audio quality, but best of all are the booklets. Some of them really stand out.

Very cool!

I've been playing with your setup as an alternative to Obsidian (just markdown files in a repo). Love the simplicity.

Directus with SQLite is definitely a great setup too! Are you using a Raspberry Pi?

Ah, yes, you're right. For a small side project the licence fee may not be justified. :)

@getkirby.com can also be a useful. It's more lightweight, easier to set up, and uses the file system as its database, removing the MySQL/Postgres dependency.

I recently switched to zen-browser.app (Mozilla) on Linux desktop and I'm very happy with it. It syncs with Waterfox on my Android phone through my Mozilla account.

Eagerly waiting for Ladybird though...

So, people are using LLMs like generators and scaffolds in Rails, which have been around since 2004?

Oh, cool! Takes me back, my dad used to have one like that.

Oh, this is such an exciting machine! Makes me want one, even if I have no real use for it right now. I haven't been this excited about a laptop since the Clamshell iBook. The attention to detail, love it!
