Fandoms: Harry Potter, Discworld, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Buffy, Dead Like Me, Glee, and I'll read fanfic of pretty much anything that crosses over with one of those.

Today's out of context quote from Lemmy: "You don’t have to go to Hollywood to start calling yourself Don Dickle Pickle Wiggler. You can just do that now, without even leaving your room."

I think this is the Friday inspiration we all needed.

@x0 @admin I'd say this isn't ready for public use, yet. Still actively under development. The public instance and the dockerized version are wildly out of sync. Worth watching, but still needs to finish cooking.

@fasnix @WeirdWriter The dude is actively committing code it looks like. And has no staging environment; just deploy to production. And the docker and public deploy are wildly out of sync. Not just "one is newer". They have different features entirely! So...yeah. I'm hoping these are just "new project weirdness" rather than a sign of bigger problems.

@x0 Also, between the multiple forks and handoffs, the Enafore code itself has gotten pretty messy. I wouldn't want to work on it.

@x0 Oh, interesting. He's running his own infra (git, etc) so I assumed that meant he was more experienced than average. Most vibecoders just use github.

@fasnix @WeirdWriter I have no idea how Synology works, sorry. But you have to have the env files set correctly, and you have to store the docker-compose in the docker directory of the repo you cloned. Otherwise it can't find locales and things correctly.

@x0 Sorry. I didn't want to run a public client on my infrastructure without understanding the code a bit more.

@x0 Maybe they only update that version on a major release. Whereas I'm running docker on latest.

@fasnix @WeirdWriter I think it might be under settings? I use a native app on mobile, so I'm not sure.

Thanks to @WeirdWriter for sharing Zocial, a modern Enafore fork. remains good, and I was able to set it up for my local instance with two commands and five minutes. Much easier than Enafore. git.ztfr.eu/Dome/Zocial

@feld @phnt That’s actually where my username came from. I wanted fastfingers, but that Unix system only allowed 9 character usernames. But the username stuck. I discovered I could put files in a special hacker folder called cgi-bin and if they ended in .pl I could “trick” the internet into running programs! At 9 I was sure this was some sort of illegal loophole I’d discovered.

@feld @phnt Yeah, the ones we had usually offered 3 or 4. We always used the small local ones. We lived in Toronto so there were a lot of small fly by night options. I’m pretty sure my dad would ask for 2 more emails and they’d agree. Sometimes I even got a whole 3 megs of web space! Once I even had a shell account. No background processes though.
