    Inconvenient on webUI (standard/stock) as the images in the post content are forced to fit in a small dimension (css juju) and they’re not clickable to see the larger version to read the written words etc. I think the latter can be solved with some Markdown like…

    https://feddit.nl/pictrs/image/043d174a-9855-4939-a7e2-6cca586b3443.webp

    …which is this horrible Markdown stanza:

    [![https://feddit.nl/pictrs/image/043d174a-9855-4939-a7e2-6cca586b3443.webp](https://feddit.nl/pictrs/image/043d174a-9855-4939-a7e2-6cca586b3443.webp)](https://feddit.nl/pictrs/image/043d174a-9855-4939-a7e2-6cca586b3443.webp)
    

    …but it provides the “expand to large size on click” that’s missing. $0.02 hth!

    Edit: I just noticed that in it’s original form (no-click), when I rightmouse “open in new tab” is available but “open in new Private window” (Firefox) is not. On my hacked up make-it-clickable Markdown test here, the “open in new Private window” is available again. I, a random internet user, open almost all links in Private windows in all my browsing - keeps trash cookies off my system and transient URLs (like these images) out of my History.

    I mostly just want to ensure mine is visible to others.

    This is the tricky part - you will be remote-invisible until someone from the other instance(s) follow you for any of your content to show up in their Explore (hashtags, etc.) feed for other people to discover you. Pixelfed.social is the biggest hub by far so getting on that radar is key (much like joining a small Mastodon instance and you want to be “seen” on mastodon.social e.g. - same processes).

    So you want to follow yourself from your pixelfed.social account to your own domain.com, so that your domain.com profile is seeded (federated) for other pixelfed.social users to discover as they browse. It’s a hack but there’s no other real way given how “opt-in” federation works, unless you have pre-existing friends on pixelfed.social who subscribe to your domain.com for you right away so you don’t have to hack it to get started.

    Federation of a forge has all the downsides of Lemmy federation multiplied - the implication is that I could issue a remote PR or a remote Issue (whatever) against a project with ill intent (trolls, spammers, whatever) instead of having a local account on that forge. sounds cool but…

    …now besides only your own forge instance users, you now have to deal with “the whole world” being able to shit on your Git projects if they want to do so, until their bad-actor federated forge instance gets blocked. This is all beside the technical problems of how to integrate remote users into your workflows.

    Forge federation has (to me) a large “social spam” problem of negatives to solve first. $0.02




  • I self-host Gogs for my internal projects, but my public stuff is on Github.

    If you were willing to make a fundamental change, one possible outcome: migrate your internal from Gogs to Forgejo and use Codeberg for your public FOSS as it runs on (a slightly patched) Forgejo. The gain is working with the same tooling on both sides and possibly gaining a runner (Action) locally if you spend the time to learn and set it up on your internal instance. Bonus idea: you could even make your public Codeberg FOSS repo a push-mirror from your internal server and let the Forgejos keep things in sync between the two.








  • We’ve had a “leafpocalypse” in the past week here, every tree dropped like it was a 3 day conspiracy of trees to instill dread in homeowners. My local lawn team is proactively driving by their regulars, rang my door yesterday seeing the disaster my trees left “want us to mulch all that up?” and even blew off my roof and gutters real quick. Heck yeah, save me the pain! take_my_money.jpg
