I probably won’t try it because I want to use a federated solution like matrix, but that’s super cool! You could probably make a post about it.

Misleading headline, it’s only one of multiple “addictive features” they’re considering banning to make social media less addictive.

You might want to point that out, maybe they didn’t realise tenor was shutting down.

That’s awesome! It’s a shame the first pr got closed because the maintainer prefers a worse provider lmao.

Yes, but that would take more space and take more time to write, and “this replaces a letter” is how a lot of diacritics have appeared. For example, the ñ replaced a “nn” in spanish. This would also remove some ambiguity in pronunciation on words like rathole and foothill.

Also, letter like that are written with dead keys, usually, so it would be more like one new character.

Again, not worth the effort of changing, but it would be an improvement.

Klipy is probably a better option, afaik their api is a dropin replacement and the gif search is much better.

it would be, personally I would follow the rss feed for blog posts tagged “release” since the next release will be 2.0.

Not directly related but I don’t know where else I’ll get the chance to bring this up:

I’ve always though that if the existence of “th” bothers you, adding a diacritic to consonants to indicate the sound change makes more sense than the þ.

For instance,

the = ţe she = şe che = çe

Obviously I wouldn’t argue for replacing ţose compounds wiţ ţose I’ve şown, since it wouldn’t be close to being worth çanging, but I do ţink it would still make more sense ţan bringing back ţe ţorn.

It’s kind of confusing but: basically some matrix 2.0 features are implemented in an non-finished state by element X (and synapse) as a testbed for those features, but the actual features aren’t finalised or implemented in most clients. The MSC’s (matrix spec changes) aren’t merged, so clients won’t want to implement it.

2/4 of the MSC’s required for 2.0 are merged as of now, and the other two are close.

2024 was when those features began to be ready to be beta tested, but it takes a long time to get a protocol finalised, since it can’t be easily changed once done.

Think of it like a wayland protocol that isn’t merged, but a desktop, say kde, has an implementation already.

Basically working on all the matrix 2.0 stuff, which hasn’t landed yet, although it’s “almost done” now apparently.

Said matrix 2.0 stuff fixes encryption (i.e, makes it seamless like signal), proper voice and video chat and adds sliding sync which makes everything much faster

Something about an error dispatching to Wayland display.

Wierd, you can use it in the web browser though.

Afaik element has it as a semi-hidden option and cinny has it by default

Agree, not a big fan of element’s interface either. Imo the point where matrix will be widely recommendable is when matrix 2.0 is done and widely adopted. Stuff like sliding sync is really important too

That’s emberrassing, I misread people talking in an issue about an open pr (https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny/pull/2599) with them talking about an existing feature. That pr does seem reasonably close to landing though.

afaik both fluffychat and cinny support it, but they don’t advertise it well.

not true, the only one that’s just a rebranded pre-existing app is tchap, and most of them are made from scratch

From the inauguration, which is kinda weird but understandable if you’re not very tech savvy. He didn’t ban them from new york in general

yes

Yeah nextcloud is a bit of a beast to manage alone. Tell you what, I’ll try selfhosting LaSuite sometime and I’ll tell you if it has it or not.

tbh I really don’t know for this solution, but you might like nextcloud, it’s exactly what you’re looking for, each part of the site is connected in that way.
