@kaa downloading … because you can never have enough writing apps .. in the hope that one of them will make me a better writer.
@news am i right in thinking that if i update a post on micro blog - it will auto update the blue sky post? And if so - but mine didn’t - what could I be doing wrong?
@manton one immediate thought
‘Sources’ is doing heavy lifting.
To borrow from Dave’s analogy - if we are talking ‘a river’ - the source is where it starts - not where it ends up - so two pages OR two sections
sources - all the services supported that are out there - and we get to add whatever the links are
these are placed like an RSS feed or a word press blog of Lettrboxd or Sourcefeed or whatever
don’t need to list them all - but you could provide examples of which people might like to pull on
THEN - ‘destination’ - same deal - eg
Bluesky, Masto, LinkedIN et at
not exactly a finished work of art - but you’ll get the picture - and pardon the pun …

The dotted arrows might be what is possible but not connected - the solids are connected and working - green if working properly - red is connected but not working. I know I know - stretching the scope … and yes i recognise some nuances around this - different services pull and push in different ways
Some are names. others just feeds - but for me - allowing me to name the fee would be useful - particularly with something like AlbumWhale - where I pull a couple of different feeds in - BUT - that list COULD be 15 different ones ..
also yes - it might be that some services are featured on both sides - and that is ok
as a blogger - my thinking is not bluesky, masto, rss etc - it is where do i want to pull in from - and then what do I want to push out to.
@manton Just to show appreciation that has little to do with the post topic … and all to do with clicking on that tweet link and being auto redirected to XCancel … 💯
@philpin.com Seems to have done.
@bsky.app Neat idea … I think this account sits somewhere along the ‘automated-manual’ spectrum .. in that a lot of entries arrive here from other places … automatically … but each one … regardless of source … was personally crafted. You can tell just by looking at the typos.
Not this logo .. another one.
@derekpeden welcome home.
@jayeless in the process of a similar exercise - having just done another similar exercise onnly 4 months ago
I totally deleted the old old one
but the 🖇️ old one is here so i can pull what I need when i need it
but the 🖇️ new one is here - that I am stringing together with lots of mini sites that currently don’t all connect - and am quite liking that they don’t.
@leeschneiderbooks Indeed. Bending Spoons … CA for the new Millenium.
@webdesignmuseum.org We did.
@leeschneiderbooks CA for the new millennia!
@anildash.com Remember Computer Associates? Would love to read your take on the comparative historical and potential future trajectories of the two.
@devilgate though it can be useful on occasions.
