bluesky through bridgy.fed

Liked Bridgy.fed to include BlueSky by Ryan BarrettRyan Barrett (snarfed.org)

Fediverse! I’ve been building a bridge to Bluesky, and they’re turning on federation soon, which means my bridge will be available soon too. You’ll be able to follow people on Bluesky from here in the fediverse, and vice versa.
Bluesky is a broad network with lots of worthwhile people and conv…

Federation is really cool and Bridgy.fed keeps delivering. Ryan does amazing work and deserves support!

5-star reviews

Liked How was your experience? by Chris Coyier (chriscoyier.net)

I just want to echo Josh’s sentiment: In a way, it’s hard to blame companies because they honestly want to know and, in the best-case scenario, actually use what they get to make things better. But it’s oh-so-overwhelming. Just constantly about every single little thing. One of my favorites is when you log into hotel […]

I hate, hate, hate satisfaction surveys. I like Kévin’s suggestion in the comments: My only takeaway here is that, if you got one after speaking / chatting / writing to an actual human you should fill it in, five stars all the way (unless there is a real thing that person did that was in…

Where have all the websites gone?

Liked Where have all the websites gone? by Jason Velazquez (fromjason.xyz)

So when we wonder where all the websites have gone, know it’s the curators we’re nostalgic for because the curators showed us the best the web had to offer once upon a time. And the curators— the tenders, aggregators, collectors, and connectors— can bring us back to something better. Because it’s still out there, we just have to find it.

[…]

Open a Linktree account or whatever. And instead of adding your other social media accounts, add three links to your favorite blog posts. Or, add links to a few artists with their own sites. Or your favorite aggregator sites. It doesn’t matter what you include, so long as we make portals to other digital green spaces that exist outside of Instagram.

Liked Designing Mastodon’s reply safety features by Sam Gold (lickability.com)

Lickability has been Mastodon’s design partner since 2021, when we helped design their first-party iOS app (and more recently, their Android app). In 1.0 for each of those apps, there have been the expected safety features — mute, block, and report. But those are very direct and technical tools. Don’t get us wrong, those features are critical to having some level of safety on any online platform. But their reach is limited to what you see, which, by definition, puts the onus on the person who needs it. If someone is bothering you, you’re required to block or mute them.

IndieWeb pour WordPress – l’esprit POSSE

Liked IndieWeb pour WordPress – l’esprit POSSE by Didier J. MARY (didiermary.fr)

Dans le billet précédent, je vous ai expliqué comment connecter WordPress au Fediverse, grâce au protocole ActivityPub, ajouté au blog via une extension (plugin). Mais il existe une autre manière d’interconnecter WordPress avec Mastodon par exemple, voire le Web globalement : l’inscrire au…

Et une ressource indieweb en français de plus, une !

Peut-on cancel Gérard Depardieu ?

Liked Peut-on cancel Gérard Depardieu ? by PAC2 (Observable)

Mesurer l’empreinte de Gérard Depardieu sur le cinéma français Gérard Depardieu est considéré comme un « monstre sacré » du cinéma français mais depuis 2020, il est mis en examen pour viol. En 2023, Marine Turchi publie dans Mediapart une enquête dans laquelle 13 femmes l’accusent d’agressions sexuelles (voir l’article). En décembre 2023, le magazine Complément d’enquête publie une enquête intitule « Gérard Depardieu : la chute de l’ogre » (voir le replay). Le seul problème, c’est que c’est pas facile de cancel

PAC2, qui fait plein de super dataviz basées sur Wikidata et dont je vous recommande l’ensemble du travail, s’est demandé ici s’il est possible de cancel Gérard Depardieu. Spoiler : il n’a pas de réponse à nous proposer. Par contre, il a fait une analyse intéressante du poids de cet homme dans le cinéma français,…

blogrolls or sharing?

Liked Are We Rolling? (Bix Dot Blog)

Just the mere thought of trying to assemble a list of my recommended blogs gives me mild anxiety not worth the confronting. This is why—and I’ve mentioned this before, of course—my solution simply is to present you with an updating list of the actual blog posts by other people that I’ve actually read. This list appears at the bottom of my front page, above a separate list of places to find more blogs.

It was a really big effort to bring all my RSS subscriptions together into my blogroll, and now I’m reading this post and realizing that sharing posts I liked, with context, is more useful anyway… oops. Guess I’m doing both 🙂
