The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell, although I’m not sure its subtleties could be brought to the screen.

This looks good, and I really like the clean look of the app.

I ditched Goodreads about a year ago and am currently using StoryGraph, but I'm interested in a truly FOSS app with no account necessary. It looks as though the .csv export from StoryGraph has different parameters than Openreads and Goodreads, and would need a bit of tinkering to allow the import into Openreads. I see that Openreads explicity allows Goodreads and Bookwyrm import but not StoryGraph.

Yes indeed! Thank you!

Thanks for all your work on Mlem, Eric. I’m finding the app a great way to use Lemmy.

All of the tiers show for me too, without me being a member or being logged into Patreon.

Thanks. I hear only good things about Tuta.

What you’ve done is similar to what I did when I moved from Gmail to Proton, with forwarding and changing addresses over time. But since then I’ve built up a lot of aliases. I guess I was just hoping there might be a less painful way of having to change every alias manually but perhaps not.

I’ve generally been happy with Proton but the recent controversy over their CEO’s comments plus the risk of “all your eggs in one basket” has made me think again.

 

I’m seriously contemplating moving from Proton to Tuta for email, and ditching Proton altogether. (Separately, I’ll go with Mullvad for VPN.)

My question is—if you’ve made that same email switch—how you’ve gone about shifting across aliases in Simplelogin which use one of their domain aliases to Tuta. Is it a case of having to update every single email manually? I will very likely end up using a custom domain with Tuta and so would have something like new_alias@domain.com for each alias, and now really really wish I’d done that already with Proton… 😬

Does the “unlimited custom domain addresses” offered with the Revolutionary and Legend packages mean that I can have unlimited aliases using my own domain? It seems so but wanted to check with those who are already operating it that way.

Thanks in advance for any help with this!

Ah, yes! That’ll explain it.

I use Ivory on iOS and it puts the hashtag above the post so I know it’s a post from a hashtag I follow! Quite a helpful feature.

The Home feed (in comparison to Local or Federated feeds) should only show the accounts you follow, but those posts will be made up of original posts by those you follow and anything they boost (as well as responses to and from mutual people you follow). As someone else has commented, you can hide boosts of those you follow by going into their individual profile page and choosing to hide their boosts.

You shouldn't be getting anything else on your Home feed.

 

This new site Invisiclues appears to be a labour of love of one person and promises to be “dedicated to (1) archiving historical Infocom-related artifacts -- InvisiClues, of course, but also magazine articles, marketing material, packaging, artwork, literature, and the games themselves -- and (2) making the archives available in an enjoyable format.”

Quite a lot of material there. Thanks to Andrew Plotkin on Mastodon for linking to it on his post here

Thank you for the link. I didn’t know about Standard Ebooks: looks like a very broad range of material!

One of my favourite horror novels of the last decade is John Langan’s The Fisherman. He’s an absolutely fantastic writer.
