  • So, as I understand it based on other systems I’ve used/worked on that had a few similar feature sets, ActivityPub will effectively send out events of “things”. What that is depends on whoever is telling ActivityPub about it. So, the data for a mastadon post (what are these called?) Would likely be pretty different to the data shape of a post on Lemmy. Not specifically the same, but I don’t think there’s anything stopping somebody from developing a server that can handle multiple types of content. Kbin has a similar thing between threads and microblogging. Two content types supported there.




  • Any thoughts on why this community, specifically, won’t show up in my subscriptions? I’ve un/subscribed multiple times and it just won’t show in the sidebar. It did before the visible name changed away from the default, but at least in Connect it just won’t “stay” subscribed. The 3 dots menu will show it as subscribed, but if I close the app or navigate away from the community for a bit, it reverts back to wanting me to subscribe. Jerboa does show me as subscribed though, so I’m thinking it might be something with Connect in particular?

    Also, potential suggestion, would it be useful for people to have a quick link to the official community within the app? Even if it was under some kind of help menu. Just an idea.



  • Overall it’s really just super comfy. The wrist rest is fantastic for sitting at a desk for hours. The index finger on the ball was a bit hard to get used to but after a few days my finger looked like Mr. Incredible’s chest though.

    The software to customize the buttons is really nice too. Cross platform, so it was trivial to setup custom stuff for my work MacBook and my PC separately (same workstation, but I’ve got a dock that switches all my devices between the two)

    I may go pick up an ergo now though. I’ve been running this one for a few years now so it’s time to waste money on more peripherals I guess!
