When I'm using Fedilab, looking at a profile, if I click on an image to view it fullscreen, it jumps back to the top of the feed afterwards.Anybody else seen this? It's pretty obnoxious if I'm far down on their feed, and then have to scroll back down from the top again.@apps #AskFedi #AskMastodon

Just found #WritingWonders (thanks @ixtlidekami for boosting others), and I thought it would help me work on a #TextBasedAdventure (#InteractiveFiction) game I've been working on for a while.I'm going to try and do a few a day to catch up. So, here's my Day 1."Siege of Remontel" is a #StarTrek #FanFiction IF game.The story takes place in the late 23rd century on a starship of little significance. The ship has inexplicably been taken over by a group of pirates. 1/2

#WritingWonders Day 7: "On a typical day, what does your MC smell like?"She always smells fresh and clean, with a light floral scent (her favorite perfume).She works in the science division, and so her work rarely gets her particularly messy/smelly.

#WritingWonders Day 8: "What's the 1st thing a stranger would notice about your MC?"Not much. She's kind of cute, but also kind of blends in wherever she is.

#WritingWonders Day 9: "How would a stranger describe your MC after meeting a first time?""She's ... really nice. But she's a bit much. Certainly enthusiastic."

#WritingWonders Day 10: "What is the first emotion your MC feels at the beginning of the story?"The story opens with her waking up. There's a tiny moment of peace, immediately followed by a wave of fear when the red alert klaxon sounds. There's never actually been a red alert since she got out of the Academy. She's confused and scared.

#WritingWonders Day 11: "Describe MC's favorite hangout place using one 👀, one 👂, one 👃"Her favorite place is the lower deck bunks, with her friends.👀: Lines of sleeping pods on the wall. Bunks, with a door that closes over them.👂: When the bunk is closed, silence only. As the bunk is opened, friendly chatter fills the air, until our story starts with a klaxon blaring.👃: Unlike most of the ship, which usually smells quite sterile, here there's always a slight body odor smell in the air.

#WritingWonders Day 12: "Describe MC's main mode of transport using 5 senses."The transporter is an unusual sensory experience. There's a moment mid-transport that takes no time at all but also lasts an eternity.👀 Vision fades out, and then clouds of disembodied something👃 Like ozone👂 A Shepard tone, always rising but never changing👅 umami, with a touch of bitter🖖 Tingles, all over the body, like when you lay on your arm for too long, but everywhere#StarTrek #FanFiction #writing

#WritingWonders Day 13: "What is the healthcare system like in your WIP world?"My #FanFiction is based in the #StarTrek universe, aboard a Federation ship.Healthcare is freely available to everybody within the Federation. Humans regularly live to be 150 because of the high quality of healthcare.

#WritingWonders Day 14: "What are some important relationships for your MC?"Parents: Loving, and always supportive. Dad enlisted in Starfleet, but never went to the Academy. Made it to Petty Officer 2. Mom was an artist.Christi: Best friend. Vissian. They often act annoyed at MC's enthusiasm, but they both love spending time together.On Day 5, I said Christi was a human female. I've changed them to a Vissian cogenitor. Their parents defected to the Federation so they could live a full life

#WritingWonders Day 15: "Formative events in MC's life?"Her dad was always an unassuming man. Like her, he tended to blend in, but unlike her, he didn't compensate by being overly friendly. He was a Starfleet engineer, non-commissioned, a petty officer.They were stationed on Starbase 6. In 2287, when she was 12, the Excelsior docked briefly. Her dad got assigned to help with some minor repairs. She managed to sneak on with him while he was making the repairs....

#WritingWonders Day 17: "Is there a belief system in your MC's life?"Not particularly. She's always been curious about religious belief, but has been fairly agnostic her whole life.

#WritingWonders Day 18: "What is your MC's home like?"I guess her bunk could be considered her home. On the ceiling, so she sees it first when she wakes up, is a copy of the Starfleet recruitment poster that hung in Starbase 6, where she spent most of her childhood.On the inside wall is a painting of her parents, done by her mother.Many other ensigns and crewmen had their bunks more decorated than her, but she included just a few of her most important things.

I would rather see support for ActivityPub client to server API.A major app like Fedilab supporting this, might encourage more server apps to support this standard, rather than building their own APIs.The ecosystem would be better if everybody used a compatible API.@apps
