@fatboy I get why people don’t like it, but I’ve never turned down a slice of Hawaiian pizza.

Question for the fediverse: I’m a hobbyist DJ that does a livestream set every Friday night. How do I promote myself _without_ using the typical social media channels? I have a website for my DJ persona but I don’t really see any way of promoting myself if I want to avoid Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and the like...

@mike I'm a little amazed to learn that there is an office where coworkers still _call_ each other...

I was looking for a Reddit-style “submit ideas and enable people to upvote / downvote ideas” project and I stumbled across onlinequestions.org - it is very bare bones and _exactly_ what I need.The author shares a zip file with all the source code (but not on a source code sharing platform, oddly) and I’m in the process of making a containerized version that I can host on my own. I’ll follow up with links once I have things sorted out.#foss #containers #linux

@joel thanks for the suggestions! It wasn't really clear from my post, but I'm not looking for a self-hosted Reddit clone. I need a tool that allows people to submit ideas and upvote / downvote the other ideas that have been submitted. No need for full forum-like features.

@mike i love it 😂 I had a similar experience - a coworker who absolutely _hated on_ a software utility that our team used daily for years. The rant came to a screeching halt when I casually mentioned that I was the author. Good times…

@kev agreed that spam management is the biggest problem. One of my Red Hat colleagues just posted his new setup (https://jan.wildeboer.net/2022/08/Email-0-The-Journey-2022/) and his main spam strategy is fail2ban. I’d rather throw in with a larger client pool; Fastmail is a decent option (for me, in the US)

@kev @ru I feel all of this! My main site is Hugo hosted on GitHub, and I have to relearn it every time I add a post.Meanwhile, I hate to say it, but strictly from a _features_ perspective, Tumblr is like the ideal managed microblogging platform (even supports custom domains!). But on the downside - it's Tumblr...

@Gina @fosstodon I often want to tweet about my DJ hobby, but then I'm like - "surely there's a mastodon instance for that". But I'm happy to read about cats 🙂

re: DJing - dunno what kinda tunes y’all are in to, but here’s my live stream from last Friday. Normally I do straight EDM but last week I picked tracks in honor of my daughter’s 19th birthday. She’s been a repeat collaborator on previous DJ sets:https://m.mixcloud.com/harrisonripps/totally-normal-dance-mix-dj-twinflower/[ cc: @Gina ]

@kev @mike was going to say - the Garmin Fenix 6 can go a week+. It makes me wish I could have a smartphone with an e-ink display because they are so much better on power consumption.

My first experiment with mechanical keyboards was the Logitech G512. From a build quality perspective - it's so-so. After a year of use the left CTRL keycap keeps falling off and I'm sure others will start in due time. That keyboard lives at my office now and honestly it doesn't get a ton of use there.The new keyboard for home is a Keychron Q3 tenkeyless with Gateron G Pro Red switches. It is GLORIOUS. It makes me want to type. 5 stars, highly recommended.#mechanicalkeyboard

@neglesaks Honestly, I rarely used them. All of my previous keyboards have had the numeric keypad, but wear patterns don't lie - those keys were basically untouched on all of those.
