this may or may not just be an elaborate callout post to reykjavik specifically depending on how the results go
@lookitmychicken @laurenthemself not a norm per se, but technologically its harder to implement so i’m not expecting it to happen anytime soon

Reminder that there will be no Public Domain day in Canada on January 1, 2023
And there won't be one again in Canada for the next 20 years
This is because Trudeau extended copyright in Canada by 20 years as a bargaining chip during the Nafta 2 negotiations
So fuck you, Trudeau, but for like, leftist reasons
Spent the past couple of days writing up a little guide to Mastodon on Dreamwidth. 😊https://naye.dreamwidth.org/2387980.html
Turned out not so little, but see it as a reference/guide rather than an instruction manual that has to be followed. Click and find out works great over here!
@selfagency they haven’t actually released the service they proposed yet and at another point threatened to release it to everyone with zero safeguards
regardless, i maintain that the distinction between being indexed by generalized search engines and in-app fulltext search are is an important one when it comes to discussions of search
@selfagency point of clarification — most discussion of post indexing has to do with in app fulltext search, which is a service currently only some misskey instances offer. So in the context of the discussion, no its not really already happening
That checkbox refers to whether search engines like google / bing / etc will index your profile. If you’re concerned about privacy it may be worth checking anyway! but the risk profile of generalized search engines is basically a completely different conversation
@alpine_thistle individual size tartlets or per slice from a larger one or just a large one to take home?
GlitchCat Policy on Global Fulltext Search ![]()
By default, Mastodon only allows fulltext searching on posts that a user has interacted with.
Some instances have recently decided to remove that limitation. This document comprises our policy with respect to those instances.
https://github.com/GlitchCatFedi/Policy/blob/main/Global%20Fulltext%20Search.markdown
And a reminder - please DO add image descriptions in your posts. They make Mastodon a better place for all, and especially for our moots with visual disabilities.
Image Descriptions are cool!
@mythologybot i mean i would be more surprised if mermaids could pass through solid objects, personally
Finally had time to sit down and bang out a bunch of the work for the new #Hometown release. As usual you can check out everything I am working on, related discussions, and the status of the work:
Helping kickstart some language study buddy vibes here with two new hashtags:
#ARMYLearnsKorean for all kinds of content—resources you’ve found, recent learnings, practice writing (or speaking even!), tips, questions, etc.
#ALKCheckIn for some accountability every Wednesday KST (feel free to check in on a different day if that doesn’t work for you). Share how your studying has been going, anything you’ve learned, study plans for the coming week, etc.
Let’s help and encourage each other! 💜
