Installed linkding shared bookmarking on the #CommonsComputer

As written up in the link, I’m still working out how to describe these shared services.

I have an OpenCollective for #ToolsForThoughtRocks but want to set things up that people can join the commons generally. https://commonscomputer.com/t/linkding-installed/25

Suggestion from @peterkaminski that we increase the character limit on this #ToolsForThoughtRocks server https://github.com/ToolsForThoughtRocks/discuss/discussions/2

Our first server outage #ToolsForThoughtRocks

Managed hosting that this server is on had a little downtime. Thanks @billseitz @peterkaminski for the pings.

There is a GitHub Discussion now where we can post notices and suggest changes to the server https://github.com/orgs/ToolsForThoughtRocks/discussions

Finally caught up with @eastgate’s #toolsforthoughtrocks presentation re: the history of hypertext systems. Highly recommended — especially if you're into #toolsforthought / #pkm and #informationarchitecture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smTUHRDYm5E

Oh look, @eastgate has an account in the Fediverse now.

His presentation this morning #ToolsForThoughtRocks was stellar. I can’t wait to share the video and presentation slides with you all.

@peterkaminski I’m using MetaText on iOS and it has great multi-post threads.

Also: I can see if we change the limit here! I’m open to #ToolsForThoughtRocks being experimental.

I don’t know if I can without changing code but I’ll have a look.

The video of the November 17th session “Spatial Canvasses Part 3” is up.

Featuring:

1) Paul Rony from Kosmik https://kosmik.app

2) Charles from Birch https://birch.ink

@mark I think it’s a bit of a pretentious phrase and slightly too earnest — which is why I added Rocks! to the end for a little whimsy & joy.

I’d ask the whole #ToolsForThoughtRocks community to make space for more diverse voices, including welcoming, recruiting, and uplifting those voices.

I know it’s a problem on every video call. We need to work together to improve it.

Thank you for raising this.

@Toby it’s new and Mac only at the moment, but #KosmikApp is something to check out https://kosmik.app

The #ToolsForThoughtRocks presentations have been doing a series on spatial canvases

At 11am PST today, I'm going to run a #Mastodon show & tell and learning/sharing session.

I'll tour the https://plnnetwork.xyz interface, which is running the #Hometown fork.

I also have the #ToolsForThoughtRocks server to show.

Questions / suggestions ahead of time welcome https://lu.ma/lhi6gcrz

@hrheingold maybe, although #ScalingSynthesis is one that has arrived with #ToolsForThought more recently.

Basically, multiplayer and larger scale. Here's the video from #ToolsForThoughtRocks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enRYIUDRwWg

And @joelchan86 et al's website https://scalingsynthesis.com/

@peterkaminski @chrisaldrich @flancian

I think big instances are ... fine, but you just won't get as much out of them.

On the forever instance -- I'd love to bring that up as something that #ToolsForThoughtRocks should discuss. I'll log that as a discussion!

e.g. we can set things in place that the domain remains live, exports, redirects etc expectations

I use @SocialCoop as my main, in part, because I think that self-hosting is selfish.

We should be working collectively.

Super inspiring #ToolsForThoughtRocks talk series, part 3 of #SpatialCanvases

Video was recorded, can't wait to share it

We’re starting the #ToolsForThoughtRocks speaker series right now https://Lu.ma/tftrocks-nov22

#SpatialCanvases Part 3

Hosted by @jessmartin

One more post to kick off the day.

An etiquette #ToolsForThoughtRocks #feditip for Local server timelines is to only post your first post of a thread as Public, and then subsequent posts as Unlisted.

This means long threads don’t crowd out the Local timeline, leaving space for others.

All posts are still visible to followers.

This post is Public, the next ones will be Unlisted

oh cool! I didn't get an email about it, but the #ToolsForThoughtRocks server here is updated to the newest Mastodon 4 version, which features subscribing to tags.

Screen shot shows me browsing the #ToolsForThought tag, with posts from others who aren't on this server.

I have subscribed and will now see posts with the TFT tag here, for all the posts that end up federated on this server.

OK! Managed to get #LogSeq auto publishing using #GithubActions, so shared #ToolsForThoughtRocks resources there are linkable and shareable!

Here are some of the #mastodon resources that @christina gathered https://toolsforthoughtrocks.github.io/ToolsForThoughtLogSeq/#/page/mastodon%20resources
