So I might be re-focusing here, Wafrn is getting on my nerves. Its not that I don't like it, @gabboman the wafrn dev has done a great job, but I don't like being forced to be linked to Bluesky. Since I disconnected from it I get error message when trying to like, re-share or comment (I think its all of them) on random posts, not just Bluesky or Wafrn, but randomly anything, mastodon.social posts sometimes will throw an error for example.
And then there's the problem with links to accounts, there's two, one in the profile and another at the bottom of the timeline to go to the user's actual page rather than filtered through my instance. Its a minor problem, but especially on .social domains the bottom one substitutes a number for the user and doesn't work.
Sure, there's features it lacks that I'd like, and if'n someone came along and made something akin to Mastodon/Pleroma/Wafrn/et al with those would be awesome, but I can live with what it has.
I am giving GoToSocial a shot, if'n I can get time to really play with it, but at first glance I can't say I'm impressed by it, there's no obvious additions or improvements to it over the other choices, and the lack of a front end means that I'm using basically the same interface as Mastodon, so it doesn't look nor feel any different.
@gabboman the wafrn dev Annoying part is the inconsistency, sometimes I get the error, but can still like the post, other times I can't, and its not restricted to Wafrn, but really any random post.
Just my two cents on GoToSocial. I really loved it when I used to be heavily active on fedi, but its promises of being "lightweight" are somewhat… incorrect. While that's true, it eventually chews through I/O like its no-one's business. Suppose it you keep to a small circle it probably won't be that bad, but letting it run wild federating with a huge amount of servers really chokes it.
Ours was connected to Postgres. I must point out our GTS server was federating with an insane amount of servers (like, getting way past 10k+). While that probably wasn't within its usecase, it was entirely the reason I stopped self-hosting fedi in the end: I'd already obliterated our self-hosted Mastodon instance, and I just could not be bothered with doing yet-another-migration-and-starting-afresh-again.
@Ducky 🦆🇼 @gabboman the wafrn dev Yeah, that was its one claim to fame that I could see, and if'n you're just doing a one user, there's lots of alternatives, though my pet peeve with those is mostly that they're all identical in features with the only difference being what programming language they're in.
L'Amérique et Israël ont normalisé le meurtre d'enfants. Les plus innocents, les plus vulnérables, sont massacrés et le monde continue comme si de rien n'était. Ça suffit ! Combien de temps encore le sang des enfants sera-t-il le « problème » de quelqu'un d'autre ?

We’re a couple weeks late to this one, but it deserves more attention than it received. As the Washington Post first reported, a federal judge has found that the IRS violated federal law 42,6…
Time for dinner surprise. What's the surprise? Well, I bought a couple two packs of stuffed chicken breasts on clearance at the local grocers, separated and froze them without marking them. And I forgot what flavors I bought, so…
A fresh round of safety recalls is putting more than 83,000 vehicles from Ford Motor Company back under the spotlight in the United States. The automaker is ...
So, because I'm cheap, I buy clearance food at the local grocery store, sandwiches, salads, microwavable meals, the stuff you find up in the deli or prepared food area, freeze it, then defrost it when I'm ready. This stuff isn't expired, but it is sell by the day I get it.
Today's second lunch/first dinner was going to be chicken tenders, corn and mashed potatoes with gravy. Took the lid off as you have to remove it to microwave it, and…
The mashed potatoes are grey. Ummm, yeah, I think we'll skip that.
