Diaspora*:How do I find and publish an old account?


First I like to search trough people who re-share a lot like @[url=https://mastodon.la/users/Esteparia]N.[/url] E. Felibata πŸ‘½. πŸ˜‰
There I'm able to find @[url=https://xn--go8h.csa.ba/users/ochronus]OLD[/url] account of @HUartsound3 and @even the older one.
Before I publish, I remove selected part of the link that's unique for my pod, so link becomes universal for all pods.

Remove blue part to make link universal

Now, everyone is able to re-share ancient messages.

Tablet fail...


Well, not fail per se, just be a piece of garbage.

I think I mentioned that I was planning on ordering a Boox Go7 which is an Android e-reader, which is to say its basically an Android tablet just with an e-reader launcher installed and an e-ink screen.

That's it laying on my Lenovo 11in tablet. Umm, I would've expected a 7 inch tablet to be around half the size of the 11, but oK. Problems started out of the box, the thing was thin, light, and felt more like a toy. Initial start up was glacially slow.

And things basically went downhill from there.
Turn it off on the launcher screen? It not only closes all open apps, but it also defaults apps back to standard, ie FireFox stops being my default browser, and the factory installed browser takes over. Oh, and FireFox now launches all web pages in desktop mode which is much smaller print and harder to read.

Then there's the random glitches, like my keyboard having no visible space bar, the graphics on my solitaire game giving me a headache, or my RAR program basically not having any interface.

Ummm, I hope this isn't an example of what to expect with Android e-ink devices.

Oh, and I already got the replacement, no surprise, but I did what I should've done in the first place, just grabbed a Lenovo 8 inch tablet. A more classic design than my 11's (I have two, the old and the newer one), but its about the right size, and I expect it'll be typical Lenovo, won't knock your socks off, but it'll do the job at a very reasonable price, in this case, $99 on sale. Funny thing, if I picked it up today from Best Buy via Lenovo's website, I got an extra $10, so I guess I got rewarded for being impatient?

Honestly, when was the last time we heard from her or her department? Is it time for a welfare check?

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #atheism, #photography, #science, and #skepticism
I have a long journey in diaspora.

Came to diaspora when G+ closed years ago, then the instance closed and I moved to diasporasocial,net
That server was disconnected days ago. All of this week it shows as Error 500, with no other information, and no heads up from the admins. A friend here suggested I join. Now I have to figure out how to regain content, and contacts.

I have been a photographer (never a professional) for over 40 years. Now retired from a long career in IT, am devoting most of my time to travel and photography.

Will post more when I regain contacts, and figure out how to connect in diaspora again.

Previously on diasporasocial, which seems to have disappeared without warning. Before that on diasp.eu, which disappeared with plenty of warning. Maybe Glass Wings will stay around a while...!

I can be found, also, on libranet.de (Friendica) and mastodon.sdf.org

Well, you know they take from the rent seeking companies who might be able to compete with it.
Let them try, nothing stopping them, except consumer choice.
