activitypub-powered wikis

what i would like to see in terms of ActivityPub-powered wikis is a beautiful federated network of very focused wikis. more of a fandom.org competitor than a wikipedia.org competitor, really − get the torchlight wiki and the asoiaf wiki and the grenoble wiki talking together, let us contribute to all with our personal accounts, idk…

morning vent

wanted to wish a happy birthday to a somewhat-estranged friend but she deleted her facebook account and i never had her phone number. her only online presence now is closed discord servers and twitter. tant pis.

joyeux anniversaire le wiktionnaire !

Aujourd’hui le wiktionnaire en français fête ses 20 ans. J’y ai modestement contribué, ajoutant entre autres : goblin mode jeu déloyal incentiver tête de vainqueur ascenseur à cornichon Ainsi que le thésaurus du cycle menstruel. J’adore le projet et ses valeurs, j’adore sa communauté, j’adore la liberté d’ajouter tous les mots, toutes les expressions qui…

I’ve been preparing for this for a while, and finally, it’s coming up! On March 31st, I’ll be embarking for a trip throughout a large chunk of Europe (wish I had done more, but Europe is big) with an Interrail ticket for an entire month. With Interrail, I get to take as many trains as I…

GNU Terry Pratchett.

book reviews up to date, woo

webmentions make me sad

I love webmentions. I love the concept of them and I love how they allow for high-quality conversations and sharing. I’m just sometimes tired of high quality stuff, you know?
