You might like Zen Browser https://zen-browser.app/


Thanks for the recommendation. I just had a quick try, it's nice, seems like a very polished Firefox. It seems to have a bunch of features I don't want in a browser so not sure if they'll get in the way.



What is WOMM?


Works On My Machine


Scaniverse sounds great! Have you compared it to other scanning apps like Polycam?


Yes, but a while back. I settled on Scaniverse for 3 reasons: It worked well, it had a high App Store rating, and no in-app purchases. A couple years on, it still works great and gets regular upgrades.

BTW, it's not just sculptures. I've scanned rooms (mixed results), relief paintings, loved ones (mixed results but if my children weren't already grown I'd be scanning them at least once a year), and even food.

Food can be quite fun. I showed a restaurateur a scan of one of his appetizers (served on a round stone so it made for good scanning). I used the AR view to project it onto our table and joked "Now I can enjoy one whenever I feel like!" He was so excited that he downloaded Scaniverse on the spot and I showed him how to use it. After that, he took us under his wing and recommended all the dishes he was proudest of. (We still had to pay for them though ;-)

In general, regardless of what AR/VR device you have or plan to get, if you see one in your future, it's good to build a collection of 3D / immersive content.


Could you elaborate here?



From that doc:

> Taildrop is currently limited to sending files between your own personal devices. You cannot send files to devices owned by other users even on the same Tailscale network.


Good point, it doesn't quite fit the same purpose as AirDrop & other alternatives. Useful if you want to share files between your devices though!


ServeTheHome just published an article about powerline networking

TLDR: It's still bad.

You asked for "web design inspiration" but you sound like you're asking for UI design, which is a different skill. For that I recommend Mobbin:

I find godly.website a helpful resource, but I also agree too many of these are design studios and are of no interest to me. Even if you set the filter to web UI, it tends to showcase the sales page and not the UI.

Mobbin is probably more useful to most people:

Either I suppose, but looks like this thread didn't get any traction !


A lot of comments suggesting federation as the solution to centralisation. I believe this is a false dichotomy.

I think Write Once, Publish Everywhere (including both centralised and federated) is much better.

Different contexts call for different approaches. "Write once, publish everywhere" is ideal for read-only content. For a social network that is user-centric/identity-focused (like Twitter), federation makes sense; for a social network that is "topic-centric" (like Reddit) you can just have individual forums like the old days.


How to do that in practice?

I find it tedious to update various social media platforms by hand, especially when each platform has its own rules and conventions. There are paid services that help but they often don't cover all of the platforms that I use, or are prohibitively expensive. Also if you just post a link to your site some social media platforms will treat you as a spammer.


How?

twitter and facebook make automating that difficult with their API restrictions.
