  • Wow, this looks beautiful! Love the selection of icons, too. It already feels great and I can tell this is gonna be stellar. Just being able to pin communities is something I really missed from Apollo/reddit so it’s rad that you’ve already got it in there! 🙌

    Edit: Any chance we can get rotation when viewing images so we can view them in landscape? As an older lady my close vision is going and I often need to go landscape to see/read things better. :)




  • We didn’t get it until the beginning of the year and it laid the household low. The younger people recovered more quickly than us middle-aged ones did. I think it was about two weeks before I really had my energy back.

    It only took one person to take their mask off to eat indoors one time to get us all sick and he was really pissed at himself. 😐 We still mask because we have elderly parents, cancer patients, and a transplant patient in the family, and really don’t want to infect them.

    Glad you’re feeling better!


  • No, it printed almost perfectly for me out of the box. The issues I’ve encountered are just the nature of 3D printing and not specific to the machine itself. Having it auto-level makes me almost cry with joy after 5 years of manually leveling with thumbwheels!








  • Thanks for the reminder! I signed up at sdf.org because I saw that r/bbs had moved over. As soon as I saw SDF’s website, which hasn’t had its look updated since the mid 90’s by my eye, I knew it was the one for me. I can tell they’ve been struggling a bit under the load but I appreciate so much that they’re hosting an instance and I have confidence they’ll get it all running smoothly. They’re a non-profit and I’ll be donating as soon as I’m able.

    I do worry, though, that as the fediverse grows many of the instances won’t be able to scale up and will drop out. I’m not an admin or sysop and know nothing of how this works on the back end, so hopefully those fears are groundless.





  • I’ll say here what I said there -

    “This is like seeing someone steal the motorhome you’ve had tons of adventures and experiences in, and roll it over the edge of the Grand Canyon as you watch helplessly. It’s not just the loss of your comfy, customized motorhome, it’s all of the feelings and memories that are attached to it.”
