I wrote about this on my blog. I like the notion and points made here, but I also think we’re not helping by re-inventing things that already exist, so I’m torn on it. I have been happy with the existing one.

“new” == ~3 years old (but looking to move from alpha to beta in 2024 IIRC). It’s a good server!

Way cooler than the one I built a few months ago, but I didn’t reuse parts of a Prusa! 😮

Built and using it - lots of fun. https://dev.to/andypiper/getting-arty-with-a-pi-3dk9

I think forcing all posts to be opted-in to the search, and depending on users to opt-out, would be far more controversial? Either way, the user does get to control this within the platform.

There’s also a really nice deep dive into the updates here.

I wrote a blog post about using Postmarks and contributing to the project https://andypiper.co.uk/2023/09/11/bookmarks-in-the-fediverse/

At the moment it is explicitly designed as a single-user implementation, although I’m sure it could be pivoted to become multiuser. I’ve simply set up my own on Glitch and it is working great! -> https://pipesmarks.glitch.me/

For what platform?

I’ve been enjoying the first couple of episodes of Strange Planet on Apple TV. I wasn’t sure they could translate a comic strip into something that runs 20(ish) minutes, but it has had me laughing a lot.

Oh, and listening to Messy, the new album from Cindy Alexander. She did a super intimate (audience of 3, me being one of them) livecast the other night, it was really nice.

Also: they remastered the Lush albums? I’ll have to check that out.
