    There is some weird issue with federation on pixelfed… you can’t search up hashtags either. I am not sure how the caching in federation works, but it seems like you have to wait for pixelfed.ca to “encounter” the post somehow first before you can search for/view them.

    EDIT: There’s definitely something about the way pixelfed.ca is configured. Or maybe pixelfed.social is configured in specific way (latest commits in the repo?). On pixelfed.social, you can view mastodon accounts (and all their photos) and hashtags. But on pixelfed.ca (and another server I’ve tried before), I can see the account, but none of the posts.

    Yeah. Apps make the experience of mobile that much better. Voyager is a very good web app. Its just missing the snappiness of a native app.

    Raccoon for Lemmy is the closest I can find to what I want.

    Curious if anyone has any other suggestions for native and open source in Android.

    For iOS, I use Mlem. It’s open source and updated regularly (the TestFlight version at least). It’s got a really nice interface. Lots of little customization options. Feels a lot like Apollo. My second choice is Arctic. A lot of great options, has push notifications. But isn’t open source (yet!) and feels like it’s slightly less polished than Mlem.

    I’m looking for Android equivalent to these two apps, but I’m not see anything remotely close.









  • SSD: Server Side Decorations

    CSD: Client Side Decorations

    It’s how kwin fundamentally works. And why you can’t just have application specific buttons and widgets in kwin window decorations like how in Gnome you can.

    The article I linked is from 2013. They’ve been discussing this for a long time.




  • Minor spoilers… but it was fun seeing how a contemporary to Kern uplifted a different species, and more deliberately. Which adds to the universe rather than just have it be… Kern is God kind of thing. And seeing a species that was more emotion based was pretty great too. Different types of intelligences… not to mention the completely alien Nodan species.
