@Mojeek is there a limit on how many different categories of focus search you can have?

2025-05-22

@ricardo that's something I always do (apart from account activation emails)... even if the email seems legit.

@feedle I loved using Yahoo's Directory, during web 1. Apart from reading the odd article here and there, I haven't been on Yahoo for years! 🙂

@Mojeek have you thought about creating a Yahoo Directory type service for all the sites you've indexed?

@nunocampos I was wondering as to what CMS you're using for the website?

2025-05-20

@reiver is FediCon where there are lots of separate conferences, in spread out venues, all "federated" together? 😉

@xenodium @ellane

Ta for the offer, but I only have an iPad, which I don't take with me everywhere!

@ellane @xenodium sorry, but no. I'm not paying for an unknown app I've never heard of before.

@inautilo I've barely touched it, since they've given permission to train LLMs with community content.

@EpiphanicSynchronicity to be honest, I haven't really found a platform that works for me...

2025-05-09

@zettlr know what you're using the app for.

Writing initial drafts, in my case.

2025-05-09

@toolsontech it sure does, especially if you follow threads for multiple projects, that you use!

Glad I'm not the only one. 🙂

App developers, if your central social hub is on #Discord, I will not be joining your community... even if I do use the app.

Discord is not friendly to us #neurodivergent folks, especially if we don't remember to log-in for more than a day, as it then becomes overwhelming.

@hortusfox no thanks. I dislike Discord with a passion... as it's far too easy for me to get completely lost, if I don't log in for more than a day.

2025-05-08

@hortusfox will keep this in mind for later, ta, as I'm very much a brown thumb.

2025-05-08

@zettlr as someone who's neurodivergent, I pretty much avoid Discord... it's very easy to get completely lost, if you don't log-in every day.

@feedle being able to unsubscribe, from specific sources, after we've added the subject feed to our readers.

@AppOutlet that's the thing about Linux, always learning something new. 😉
