Hosting data yourself wouldn’t be required, but it would become an option.

You’d have the option of leaving your identity on your home server, or a separate domain/website, or host your data and identity but use another instance to federate.

Though, designing UX for this will be an interesting challenge.

Syncthing does have an Android app, but I’ve never looked into doing anything syncthing-related on iOS because I simply don’t have any iOS devices :/

I’ve resorted to just syncing my fault folder using Syncthing externally, surprisingly convenient

If you wanna go nuts on the data, probably Obsidian.md with the built-in Daily Note plugin and the Dataview plugin, which allows you to do all kinds of crazy operations on the data in your vault as if it was a database.

If you wanna go less nuts, obsidian still has tagging, linking notes, daily notes, and all kinds of other stuff built-in and is extensible by things like the Calendar plugin from the community.

And everything is stored as plain Markdown with the occasional hint of JSON (for some plugins) so you’re not locked into using Obsidian until the end of time. Your data is yours.

(I realise this sounds like an ad but I’ve just been using Obsidian for years now and I enjoy it)

Codeberg, woo!

Note that tons of instances have increased the limit FAR beyond 500 chars. Mine has 2000.

You can actually put alt-text in images, ![alt-text](URL)

presumably, you’re already in the right place!

Though, generally all over all kinds of places in the web you’ll find communities of neurodiverse and/or autistic people :)

You’re welcome! <3

a TL;DR from my own interpretation:

• Dave (the person making the video) feels uncomfortable; ‘even talking to my wife on the phone somehow feels stilted, remote, and disconnected’
• Dave talks about other reasons, like struggling to initiate or accept a phone call, that people with ASD might dislike phone calls
• Dave also struggles with figuring out who is supposed to be talking / whose turn it is, especially due to a lack of cues that can be used to identify that
• Another thing mentioned is how the fact that these cues are missing can also lead to misunderstandings. When someone asks a question and expects an immediate response (e.g “I think that…”), if you take a moment to reply the other end might think you disagree with them.
• He also talks about many cues that can imply different things explicitly, like volume, pitch or tone of voice, as well as pauses, pacing or changes in intonation.

Edit: whoops I left a bulletpoint dangling there

well, not if you want a UI that’s designed around threads like Lemmy or Kbin does 🤔

The System’s VPN imementation is broken. All of them are broken.

so, the context is deporting people to gain votes, is that right???

what disgusting justification do they have this time?
