" Breaking Bad - I had to force myself to watch 5 episodes. Just didn’t get it.
" The Sopranos - I don’t like mob stuff. I didn’t like the godfather either.
" The Wire - this one surprised me because I generally like cop shows. Maybe I wasn’t in the right frame of mind.

Like the author of that article, I had never heard about Huginn until just now, but when IFTTT went down the shitter for me (around 2018) was about the same time I started using Home Assistant. I found that HA had every one of the service connections available that I used to use through IFTTT, so I naturally just re-implemented all of my flows as automations. HA has only added capabilities since those earlier days. It’s not just for “home” automation.

If you’re interested in more graphical representations of your automations, HA can have NodeRed as a plug-in.

The elephant in the room…

If I could not just migrate to a new instance, but actually convert my existing (self-hosted, single-user) Mastodon instance to a GoToSocial instance, I would do it tomorrow. I don’t want to lose the domain I picked for my Mastodon instance though.

I remember seeing somebody working on a project to convert the Mastodon database to a GTS database, so this may yet happen.

Edit: Found it. It was an issue in the GTS GitHub repo: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/128

Has anyone here installed friendica? I tried to give it a go yesterday with the the docker image. The login page is showing up, but it is giving me HTTP 500 errors when I click sign up I also get no errors in any logs.

I guess I’ll never know what the kids are saying ever again because there’s no way I’m installing either of those apps.

I can already do this on my Samsung Galaxy S23. Has this been a Samsung-only thing?

That being said, Samsung’s Bluetooth UI leaves much to be desired, IMO.

Edit: Granted, it doesn’t work exactly as described in the article, but I can have multiple BT speakers playing the same content from my phone.

I still don’t understand WTF Ruby’s mother had to do with Sutekh. Why was knowing who she was important to the god of death?
