Looks good!
I have one suggestion, the white text on bright green on the website is hard to read. Maybe you can pick different colors, or put borders around the characters.
I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

For the people around me, the only people using tablets are students. It’s actually very helpful for note taking and I don’t think there are any good alternatives to the iPad unfortunately.
2in1 laptops aren’t that useful when you need to both type and draw/write


Hello,
Please keep the original title when making a link post, or leave the link field empty so that it appears as a text post. That way it’s clear to everyone that these are your words and not the headline of the article. Some apps/clients can make that confusing for users.
In your case, it would be easiest to edit the post and clear the link field. You can keep the link that you already have in the body of the post.
Otherwise the post will be removed by one of the mods.
Thank you :)


It looks like Social is the platform that released v1, and the other ones are still in various stages of development.
https://docs.bonfirenetworks.org/flavours.html#what-is-a-bonfire-flavour
My understanding is that “Bonfire Social” is very similar to Mastodon, with their own way of implementing certain features, and the other features in their funding campaign are still in development


They launched version 1.0 of a platform similar to and interoperable with Mastodon, and they’re doing a funding campaign for what projects they will work on next.


Also they have some art for those that participate:
The code is a commons, so art is offered as a reward. This campaign includes a limited‑run, hand screen‑printed artwork by Rocco Lombardi, the artist behind Bonfire’s icon and other illustrations.

Ok that’s really cool :D
I can see the detective one being popular. I hope they continue to make more
Purdy’s Chocolates advent calendars $30.00 each, including a braille option. They also offer a set of refill chocolates for $20.00 so you can reuse it next year.
Cool that they have a braille option! As for the refill chocolates, I don’t think they would last a year around our family 😄
edit: I misunderstood. You aren’t supposed to buy them together, but rather get the refills next year. The point still stands though lol


For context, this is what reddit’s limited automod is like

I’m sure we can do better. For example, being able to use variables

Thank you :)

Thanks!


You only need a server if you want to run an entire instance (ex. lemmy.world). Anyone can create a community on most instances.
The graphics on this guide might help:

There actually is a TUI client for Lemmy

It’s very similar to Lemmy, and probably the closest to Lemmy out of the other platforms that follow this format.
We tried to describe the differences here
https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/fedecan/our-platforms#forum-style
These platforms follow a forum format, similar to platforms like Reddit or Hacker News. You can share and discuss links, text, and images, and upvote/downvote content to decide on what content rises to the top.
These platforms use one of two projects under the hood:
- Lemmy - Lemmy is an established and stable project. It was designed to be very fast and reliable, and it makes up a large part of the forum side of the Fediverse
- Piefed - Piefed is a relatively new project that is growing in popularity. It offers new ways to organize content, such as topic lists, feeds, flairs, and additional moderation tools.
As they’re both federated, you can use any of them to connect to the wider Fediverse!

Thank you for creating it and maintaining it!
I’ve been trying it out and it’s nice :)
I didn’t understand this one, was there additional backstory from previous comics about the Pen and Paper or Guzzler?


I’m happy participating as a community member, and stepping up as a mod later on if the team could use some extra help. I don’t mind either way :)


Oh on that note, would it be helpful to lock and redirect !newtopiefed@piefed.ca to that community?
Those changes make sense to me :)
