Pulsar because I am (or at least was and will be, I’ve been a bit absent recently) part of the team developing it. Its a fork of Atom to continue development after GitHub pulled the plug, entirely community developed and focused.

I keep seeing so much stuff against .ml and I’m just like, I picked it because it was basically the only really active one when I first joined…

Its harder to remember not swimming to be honest. School swimming lessons, beach holidays, leisure centres, holidays abroad etc. I actually used to swim competetively (for my age bracket in my teenage years) for a local team. Went on to do lots of scuba diving and was a pool lifeguard for a bit

I think not swimming here is pretty rare, I want to say that maybe 10 or 15% of my year were classed as “non-swimmers” and had lessons separately to the rest.

I thought I had heard about him making that before but no amount of searching seemed to find it… I guess thats why, I was thinking I had just made it up or something.

A few I’ve been interested in.

• I just saw this project literally today, a federated search engine using web rings - https://gitlab.com/Doomsdayrs/mengzi
• Ibis is a federated wiki by the Lemmy dev - https://github.com/Nutomic/ibis
• WriteFreely is a simple federated blog designed around writing - https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely
• Funkwhale for music hosting (I’m sure I heard rumours about it stopping development but it still seems active?) - https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale

One I’m surprised I haven’t seen (although might inappropriate for the standard, no idea) is an activitypub messenging service like Matrix

Sounds like Plymouth. I think i counted 15 Turkish barbers

The fact that vape and phone accessory shops are often combined into one is particularly fishy…

“Try not to be a dick” is probably the most base but somehow most meaningful phrase I’ve ever heard and I try to live by it. Sure there is a lot more to me and things go a lot deeper but I feel if everyone at least attempted to adhere to it then who knows what things might be like.

The Glory really had me hooked the whole way.

I still have it installed on my work phone.

To be fair to Mastodon, most of the things I tend to be interested in with it have at least made it to Fosstodon which is thriving pretty well.

Dev is probably a strong word for me but I’m definitely on the Pulsar team lol. I mainly do the website stuff and blog/release posts/announcements. Good to hear we have a supporter for it here :)

Pet boa constrictor died and started fermenting in the viv. It was like a wall of putrid stench. Had to get her quadrouple bagged and taken to the vets for proper disposal.

Yay, Im happy there is at least one pulsar mention! We are thinking of setting up a Lemmy community but want to make sure there is enough interest.

This is why I love the idea of Federation. You can give them their own space to shout and fling their faeces as much as they want but absolutely nobody is required to give them an audience.
