Level 3
Not sure if I’m ready for Level 3 yet…what do you think?

/e/OS
Got eOS running on a spare Android I had put LineageOS on last year. The web installer was SO much better than how I had to install Lineage with the terminal. Still some work to improve the user experience of it, but nicely done overall! I like a lot of the things eOS is doing,…

Unique Wood
Found this really unique piece of wood that I feel deserves to be remembered. 😁

Murena Account
Just signed up for a murena.io account! 🔥 First discovered them at the end of 2023 and did a lot of research to see if switching at that time made sense for me. It didn’t, and I’m not quite sure if I’m ready to fully switch yet, but I’m excited to experiment more. I really…

Nutrition Systems
If I’m gonna cook, I really want it to be systemized and simple. I want to be a one pot master and find the best dishes that are done with one pot cuz I don’t like tons of dishes and pans all over. I don’t know if this is possible, but it’s what I’m feeling.…

Ghost
Testing out Ghost to see if it can become a replacement for what I’ve built here on WordPress. So far, it’s hard to say. The lack of a visual editor like Gutenberg is definitely throwing me off, but I like how much more simple a lot of it is and the ActivityPub integration sounds like…

Fedi Shopping Anyone?
Something I’ve been thinking about recently is how I feel like any type of digital experience could be decentralized and federated. I think this is SO cool!! 🤩 Idk if it actually could be, but in my head the systems seem to align. For example one specific area I’ve been wondering about is what if…

Federated Everything 🤔
I seriously think it would be so cool if all tech was built around the modular, scalable concept of federation and open standards that everyone can use! Like, seriously, why is this not how we built it from the beginning?? For example, wouldn’t it be so cool if instead of needing to have an account…

FediSearch
What even is a browser? And, why couldn’t the fediverse become the new “browser” for all the web or all digital content? Everyone could search the way they want on the device and app they want and browsers wouldn’t be so controlled by only a few players. It’s a cool idea to think about 🤔

Is it worth it?
I’ve been feeling super stuck lately, and not just in one area or in small things, but tons of places and areas of my life. My last post highlights some of this, and I hope to continue that conversation here. I’ve just been frustrated recently with feeling like there’s too many conflicting systems in tech.…

Here’s the real test, can I post using the Android Mastodon app and have it show up on Mastodon and on my website? What if I add a photo from a recent restaurant visit? How does that show up?
