Maybe communities could set, voluntarily, some sort of tags that can be subscribed to or used for search.
With that idea, cat memes, cat owners, cat pictures, etc. could all be viewed together if they include a #cat tag, regrouping them, but without a hierarchy.

I definitely agree on respecting how other instances moderate themselves and I'm happy I can choose what I interact with. It's just so new and it's hard to find out what the vibes are. I hope I chose well with this one.

nonono, It's not that. I haven't lurked there for very long, but it seemed that they were trigger-happy on bans from what I gathered. I don't have examples at the moment and the modlog feature doesn't seem to work well..

Yeah, not opposite politically. You described it better.

It definitely is an interesting and there might be some merit to it. I'm just worried. Let's say I post in lemmygrad for any reason and then comment something unrelated and neutral on a beehaw post. Will I be silenced because of that first instance's bad reputation? Maybe I'm thinking too much.

I've had some thoughts pop up when reading the post and your reply.
So beehaw said this may be temporary... But I can't help to wonder what that means.
Let's say lemmy.world closes registrations and beehaw refederates. Are they going to be flooded with all the posts that happened while we were defederated?
The amount of stuff suddenly appearing everywhere would be unmoderatable, and if I'm not wrong, it also kind of makes defederation permanent if it goes on for too long. Who would want to refederate instances and tsunami their own with things they don't know about?

I really like obsidian and use it even though I usually prefer FOSS tools. It just suits my needs perfectly at the moment.
Having the markdown files on my drive is the primary reason I don't stress over it too much.
I'll probably start using Zettlr if it improves significantly or if I feel betrayed by Obsidian.

Their flag is extra wide

Here's the first prototype I made in tinkercad.
I don't know how to do CAD modeling, but I'll try my best to make it fit well and I'll share the STLs.

It would make the web UI look better to me.
I sometimes just don't know where to look for things and when I see a circle with a picture I know the text on the right is a username. Also helps with reading comments if the colors are different...
An alternative would be to give me the choice to hide all PFPs to make the UI homogeneous...

I actually bought myself an ergonomic keyboard months ago that does support tilting it in the other direction, with a curved wrist rest to help.
It works quite well, but I also like the concept of the one I built.
I's like to tilt it to make it more comfortable, if it turns out I like using it.
From what I understand, you can have all the keys you need on a keyboard like that, but it requires muscle memory of key combinations, and I do not know yet if that's for me. I'd have liked to start on a board with more keys, but it's expensive just to see if it suits me or not.
I can also see it being useful in VR while playing games like Elite Dangerous, to have one half per arm on a chair with a HOTAS setup.
It's definitely a niche thing.

edit: just read your other comments and I think you should chill a bit. I see these things as specialized and personalized computer input interfaces. People are different and input methods should be too. It might not fit your bill, but it might for some people here or maybe they like experimenting to find what works for them.
I don't want this to become a VI vs Emacs flame war analogy.

Whatever you choose, please make sure you figure out the ergonomics.
I have an a6100 and I find it big and heavy when I hike with it.
I recently started carrying it on a capture clip on my belt and it made it significantly better.
Don't forget to check the lenses too. Weight, price, size.

I've browsed some of beehaw's communities last night and there was a lot of terrible posts from outside being made there.
My guess is they fear defederated users from bad instances making throwaway accounts on lemmy.world to troll them from here and circumvent moderation.
I understand why they did that, but it seems very extreme and shows shortcomings in lemmy's moderation tools.
We are now tainted by the unhinged.
I don't know how I feel about this since there's no real good answer...
Maybe lemmy.world should limit sign-ups, but that could be seen as being coerced by beehaw and give them political power they don't deserve.
Something better would be to have community-level moderation tools and also tools for instances to limit interaction instead of outright nuking it. Lemmy needs more development quickly or it may suffocate.

Hmmm, that's good to know. I'll check that out with a multimeter.
I was wondering what type of network cable the keeb supports while building it.
Networking cables can either be straight or crossover. I believe 2 pairs are affected by this difference, maybe that's where the issue comes from?
edit: just checked and I have a straight cable.

Cool!
The fit is very unforgiving. It might be hard to use with plastics that warp or with poorly adjusted printers... Or if the PCB is cut a bit larger.
I had trouble scaling the part and had to be... Creative. Thats why the thumb portion's shape is strange.
Glad to see it works for you!

Ah! I just recompiled, used your encoder config and the Henrik keymap, it is almost perfect.
Many thanks, the keyboard works really well now and I'll be modifying the keymap to my needs, it's already so close to what I need!
I'll move the NUM layer key to the left so I can enter numbers without lifting my mouse hand. :D

Sorry for using acronyms; I hate when people do that and I just did...

MOC stands for Map of Content if I'm not wrong.
From what I understand, MOCs are notes that contain a table of contents that links to other notes.
You can open such a note to quickly access other notes by clicking on the links in it.

LYT stands for Linking Your Thinking.
It's just marketing for Nick Milo's way of organizing obsidian vaults.
He's an entrepreneur that teaches his organizational techniques.
He uses MOCs among other things, but I'm having trouble understanding his implementation.

Omg, thanks! I really liked the design/cost and it made me want to try the whole ergomech keyboard idea instead of just looking at pictures.
Your post explains so many things!
I'll jump on it as soon as I get back from work and I'll see if I can solve my issues.
Do you plan on updating the design? No push, just asking.

The part with the pickup trucks... idk.
I will not be able to design an intricate tilt mechanism in the short term, I have almost no CAD software knowledge... Thanks though.
I was planning on 'baking' the tilt into the case model or glue little feet.

Thanks! I got the cheapest XDA caps that looked fine on Amazon. I believe they are called 'Aerospace Appolo'. They are just decent; the print is not well aligned on some keys.
