I've read that Aaron Swartz was tolerant of free speech in any way shape form, thus the acceptance of anything under the sun.

On desktop I use FoxScroller, a scrolling extension, which barely works now - but I'm probably the only one here with this objection. Everything seems to be working fine.

Will a critical mass be reached where we can create our own communities? At least at beehaw that seems to be handled top down, we had a poll asking what we'd want - does it work that way everywhere? I'd like a local area community, but as you say, who'd participate? I might be it.

Kind of a wash - I've always been a RiF devotee. I might have rejected Sync if it wasn't compact enough, or I didn't realize it could be set that way - I've always placed a premium on cramming the most info onto a screen as I can. Which is why I was drawn to /. and then reddit, and can't stand FB etc.

Last I heard he's working on one for Tildes instead, sad to say.

I've always used RiF - it duplicates the desktop layout better than the others, along with so many other features. Wish its developer was moving on to a Lemmy app, but he's cranking out one for Tildes instead.

I still use it to lurk - the shitstorm over there is quite amusing, read the latest announcement at r/videos. Yes, nothing but John Oliver videos - but the screed this is delivered with is a thing of beauty.

Had the week off from work, who doesn't love those? Mostly a staycation, went to a nice musical gathering, jammed with friends too, got stuff done, cleared head.

Ha, there's a Tilde webring. That's like a jet powered Wright Brothers glider.

I'm waiting for better control over filtering to be able to see what I want - the duplicate communities are a good example, being able to select all technology instances would be handy. Although will people in each one be posting the same material...perhaps we could have all the comments viewed at once while we're at it. But that makes you consider what's the point of having all these instances in the first place.

u/Taytay_Is_God says they've done just that, they were the sole mod of r/tumblr and have been relieved of duties.

Do it at night, show some mercy.

FoxScroller, I like to scroll pages while practicing music, which always impresses people. Gesturefy, gotta have those mouse gestures. With a tiny Windows program called NeatMouse I can do it all with the keyboard, too. Kinda off topic. Imagus, what is this clicking and opening crap? SessionSync is good for saving your tabs. Fun to see what you were wasting time on 5 years ago.
