@absturztaube I have to investigate and snapshot all the cool settigns Pleroma has -- fantastic customization.

Like -- select what Font to use on the Toots diplay at our side? OMG!! Eugen would never consider that.

@absturztaube

One small snapshot, TWO big reasons why.

-- my Blog post yesterday on Pleroma as an Alternative to Mastodon was surprisingly well received.

I have received messages from various people, asking for recommendations of good Pleroma instances to join.

And i am working on it. Serious. As I write here, I am logged in and chatting with friends I just met, all in various Pleroma nodes, that responded to my post there, thanking the admin for the service.

I will prepare a detailed Blog post, with more suggestions and reasons, but for now, kudos and a mention are appropriate.

Highly Recommended -- FAB

Also known as the German instance with the impossible to remember name, which is *completely accurate*.

Thank you to @absturztaube

for FAB

* Nomad is my Heart. *

To love is sometimes to let go, respect someone's need to be out and observe, marvel at so much the world has to offer.

Sometimes people have a hard time accepting that, while part of a community, or in a closer relationship with someone, all humans have curiosity and it's rich to see and let it blossom.

I offer this post to my friend Coralie, we met very recently, and yet she has such a sensibility, that it saw deeply into my heart and soul.

Yesterday she surprised me, messaging privately and offering a comment that delighted me -- that she could perceive my inner nature so clearly.

It closely related to the theme of this page. A toot, written from the hip, not polished or edited but coming from inside, prose flowing. A response to a local system administrator - qoto.org/@freemo/1043089546768, which sometimes shows concern about my wanderings all over the Fediverse.

This morning, she favourited and boosted it - which brought it into my notifications and a re-read confirms it's poetic, and should be published. To Coralie, I offer this.

Thanks dear friend.

That is the Topic of today's Blog : write.tedomum.net/rgx/nomad-is

@proto_azure @Sphinx There is a big interest in producing and selling those books, a whole industry. And an interest in self-preservation. Some college professors are also textbook authors, and so sensitive to weaning people off the current situation.

Prices are high, and it would be ideal to find lower costs methods, for sure.

@arteteco That is quite a noce thing to do. I would suggest you could either use something similar (but ligher, faster, better) to OneNote.

Which allows you to write, but also accepts and kees images, links, so it can be interconnected to other aspects of life in this moment.

A simple blog is also possible, you have the option of creating it and setting it to private, or only with a password - which could be shared with close people who you would not mind seeing the pages.

I thought about creating one along those lines, for things I would like to write and leave for my sons, close family, a good way to keep memories alive.

Why Pleroma UI does it BETTER 

@design_RG

Pleroma has a very interesting attitude - it divides things into Back End, and Front End.

There’s Two separate development teams, one for each area. Their work interconnects, but people stay where their expertise is.

There are various options of Front Ends, which any user can choose from, in a Pleroma instance — they can use Mastodon Front End (FE for short), which is actually even BETTER than vanilla masto instances — as it’s Glitch Soc based.

Or they can use Pleroma FE, or the Best one (I haven’t tried) that @a1batross has at his instance.

Pleroma FE here : https://expired.mentality.rip/main/all
Mastodon FE here : https://expired.mentality.rip/web
Bloat FE here : https://bloated.mentality.rip/

If I was typing this comment there, I could use Bold, Italic, Bulleted list, and more MarkDown formatting with ease.

@globcoco

Thank you. I will take some pictures once the little plants take in, they were all perky yesterday, but today is hot and they felt it.

Got 3 eggplant ones. No Swiss chard, and I went to various places.

@Sphinx @zleap @freemo

@proto_azure Dr Freeman is, our admin. He doesn't seem to be around today, no peep so far.

Kind of strange, but he will be back.

@Sphinx

Thanks, Sphinx, I am only buying and planting veggies. And just returned, very low stock in the nurseries -- a lady told me they are sold out, many more people than usual came buying veggies this year.

More time to care for a garden, probably, and it's a good mental hygiene too.

@globcoco @zleap @freemo

@globcoco @Sphinx @zleap @freemo Didn't find any, got to go out again, another garden center.

I want some Swiss Chard, maybe some Cubanelle peppers.

@globcoco@muensterland.social

Wunderbar, froh, Sie getroffen zu haben, fraulein

@subca

>> what is the meaning of LOL, OMG, WTF, and so on

Those are all very common English acronyms, you are having trouble understanding these ?
