@aelaraji thank you! Having seeing Google’s Play, of whatever name they call their App Store these days, which is a mess, makes me very wary about using a third party one.

Back to the original topic, I use an iPhone. I am one of those who is perfectly fine with the Apple App Store. 😊
This would have been a lovely morning, wind softly rustling in the trees. If it wasn’t for the constant droning of the air planes. 🫤

I also saw a string of starlink satellites passing by. What a strange sight that was.

@prologic I don’t think so, no. Judging by their web site, they appear to be primarily a Gemini user (no concept of a “user agent” there). This also works:

But there *are* nick, url, and description metadata headers in the feed, even an avatar. 🤔

@lyse That is one flat snake. 🫤 Looks quite pretty, what’s left of it anyway.

What’s going on with the frogs? I guess they can’t properly see in the dark? 🤔

That large “individual” towards the would have freaked me out. Was it at least furry? Or was it a huge spider? 🤪

@aelaraji Well yeah this is true, but as @bender and I point out, there are reasons for why this happens at times 🤣 Some of those reasons are not "purposefully malicious" I don't think 🤔

@bender F-Droid is a platform/app that lets you side-load/install and serve android apps without the need for Google's play store's blessing. I also use Aurora Store to install Play Store's apps without having to associate my phone with Google account. 🦾 it makes me feel good about myself 🥸

Very cool, fingers crossed, @off_grid_living! A simple wooden frame, like four posts and and a rectangle on top, to support the fabric/nets should suffice, wouldn't it? No need to build full sheds, I'd say. But I'm not a farmer at all.
@movq :-D
@movq Huh, this is the first time I heard of IBM WebExplorer.
I'm out of shape. I decided to walk up the local mountain to watch the sunset, but I arrived five minutes late, even though I sped up at the end. Should have started my journey ten or fifteen minutes earlier. I saw the setting sun at foot, but the photos were total disasters.

On the way there I picked two handful of blackberries in the forest. Delicious!

Today was the second time in my life that I saw a grass snake in the wild. They can easily be recognized by the yellow "ears". Unfortunately, this one was run over. :-( But I jumped at the opportunity to photograph it as it didn't escape in a fraction of a second like my first encounter three years ago. Still, poor fellow. :-(

Run over grass snake

On the way home, a deer jumped out of the brush in front of me and headed down the forest road before it went back in the other side. As always, that's nice.

I also had to slow down a bunch of times because of frogs or toads on the paths. Not sure which ones, it was already after dark. I guesstimate it must have been 60-70 amphibians in total, maybe more. Some of them did not move to the wayside but rather into the middle of the track, right in front of me. Crazy suicide frogs! There were four reeeeaaaallly close calls. I could just avoid stepping on them after they tried to hop right under my boot. Not a centimeter to spare. No toads were harmed during my trip. Phew!

Once I had to stop completely because of the large activity ahead of me. A larger (about the size of half a palm) individual surrounded my foot and then jumped against my heel. Twice! What the heck!? :-D But suuuper cool experience. I'm very glad I actually went out. Totally worth it. I met so many amazing animals. Don't care about the missed sunset a single bit.

In the process of tweaking my little static HTML index/thumbnail creator so that it a) properly supports dark/ligh mode and, more importantly, b) gracefully degrades on ancient browsers.

Why? Because I often exchange data via HTTP with old systems and my tooling automatically invokes that indexer/thumbnailer script. 🥴 It’s really annoying when I just see garbage in Netscape 2 or IE5.

@slashdot IMO the problem isn't "Apple"™ the company, per se, it's the complexity and size of the organization. It's large, it's complex, you will have large sets of "people" that follow the "rules" as written without any leeway whatsoever or ability to apply "intent".

@movq @bender Haha, great! :-)

Just returned from an evening walk. We met a young slow worm, a bunch of small frogs, about the width of a pointing finger and a bucket load of sweat. It's bloody hot and humid. Also, heaps of ripped trash bags in the forest and lake. :-( No photos, it was too exhausting to even carry my pocket camera.
moving to a new town is lonely, i think i'm lonely. maybe that's why things have been so hard..
