Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash… and I’m delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever!
Rightly so. I’m probably over-egging it. But there are still many people who should know better willing to give JKR a pass. Look at how excited people are online about a shoddy Amazon remake of the movies. Could you imagine anyone even considering a Gaiman show at this point?
I find it amazing that JKR pretty much gets a free pass when someone like Gaiman is so me-too-ed that people online throw out his books and trash his mostly progressive history. Just imagine the condemnation if someone suggested a Gaiman community. Weird, subjective times we live in.
I’d like to see automatic downvoting as a feature of the Fediverse. Don’t give anyone the option to upvote or NOT to downvote. It’s a race to Hell brothers and sisters.
I’ve used Pinry for years and love it. Unfortunately, it’s no longer maintained. Last update 2+ years ago. I’m looking for a self-hosted alternative.
I think Libre Office is fantastic and I’m glad to see the back of Microsoft. But I miss how useful mail-merge was and how limited it is in Libre. It’s my only small complaint among so many cheers for Libre.
That’s one of the other big issues. I have the same worries about how digital-only gaming has become. My kids seem to prefer digital downloads and really don’t believe me when I warn them that they have absolutely no control over what they “buy”. But they look at me like one of those crazy old-timers who just doesn’t understand the modern world.
I started with Logseq and then quickly moved to Obsidian (which I think is great). Over the last couple of months I’ve started using Emacs with Org (partly for the challenge and partly because it seems to be able to do pretty much everything).
I did make the jump… into unemployment. But still much happier. I love teaching and would join an authentic, child-centred school at the drop of a hat - but not willing to be complicit in the toxic horror show that’s current UK education.
Former English teacher here. My self-hosting origin is that I had 20 years or so of teaching materials I’d collected in OneNote over that time and simply wanted to have offline copies so that I could feel that if ever something went wrong with Microsoft like getting permanently locked out of my account, then I had a means of restoring everything. Microsoft makes it practically impossible to export to a working backup.
After spending a LONG time trying everything to get back ownership of my materials, I understood the need to move my digital stuff away from big tech. I bought a Synology NAS, learned how to use Docker and then took more steps. About the same time I started using Fediverse apps and learned a great deal from the discussions and links there. My greatest “learn” has been keeping notes in plaintext files (and not getting seduced by nice shiny new apps that are actually horrors that want lure you into a future subscription).
Thanks. I took another look at your documentation and decided to re-install everything. You’re right, I’d used the simple “test” compose script from your site. After a little trial and error, I got everything working properly with this:

Exports are working!
Is Journiv still having issues with export? I couldn’t get it to work (tried following all the stuff I could find about the export issues and folder permissions) - so I gave up. A shame because I like the app.
I’m starting to see this. Over on Mastodon I’m starting to get devisive pro-Reform stuff in my feed. Often it’s someone boosting (though not sure why) a video from a pro-Farage account and making a silly comment about it. The local instance I’m in is nice and friendly - and I don’t want the arrival of people who just want to stir up things. We do politics there and seems left-leaning but it’s courteous. Occasionally a tone deaf elephant will thunder through and then move instances when they realise we don’t like the being nasty stuff.
Disappointed as I thought this was something to do with Richard Shaver. Never enough stuff about the Shaver Mysteries these days.
I actually enjoy Mastodon because the “followers” you get or the ones you follow are few and it’s all manageable. I don’t understand the appeal of following so many that you can’t possibly keep up with what they write about or who they are.
I’m interested to know if anyone is using a Cloudflare tunnel to stream audio? It breaks their terms but I’ve read that they tend to ignore it.
That sounds fantastic. Journiv has kick-started me into journalling before bed again. Thank you for uour work.
I’ve been running Journiv since Monday and really liking it. I’d really like to see a straightfoward means of exporting/restoring journals, though. The export says coming soon.
One of the reasons I stopped using Memos - which I thought was good - was because the devs were telling users on Discord that there was no need for backups because you should have the skill to manually locate and open up the database and export entries yourself. I think that sort of stuff makes or breaks apps like this in which people put aspects of their lives into.
Agree with Navidrome. Works great in browser and the Substreamer ios app.
Definitely. Most of the time communities are friendly and supportive - but I’ve noticed too that there are users who seem deliberately scratchy and saying things that are looking to provoke and who become fizzy if they’re challenged in any way about something they’ve said. I wondered if it’s much younger users who are coming from other places having picked up the “fight me” attititude there.
It’s great. I’ve been using it for nearly a year and it just works brilliantly.
You can. It’s more straightforward in Synctrain than Mobius but both can do what the OP needs.
