I have used update_hooks to achieve similar behaviour in my projects. But perhaps this is intended as a higher level layer? It looks like the implementation is not using hooks?

I made my own CLI habit tracker, but forgot about using it since I don't have notifications.

This looks great! I can't quit trying new apps! But joking aside, this is what a (bad) habit tracker should be like. Focused on the habits and not distract you with everything else. Let's see if I can quit social media. (Hope that does not include HN)

That's all I use now for REAL social media. My family is in one Signal chat, and my in-laws in a other one. All the social media I need. School groups are unfortunately on Facebook Messenger groups.

I applaud your accuracy when measuring your kids' temperature. My approach when figuring out if my kids are sick is if their temperature is "high" and their general appearance and conditition is out of the ordinary. The exact decimal of the temperature doesn't matter too much by itself.

After reading your comment, I went to the bookmark manager in Firefox. Looks like Firefox supports tagging bookmarks. But finding them again using tags seems a bit cumbersome. You have to go the the menu to search bookmarks and then enter the tag.

Isn’t one of the points about “slow” social that you don’t need to read 50 posts a day? I would be happy checking in once a week, the same day I am going to post my update.

This looks nice. If I were to use it, I would rely mostly on the mail-feature as none of my family/friends have signed up. That’s a nice feature!
But there’s one thing I reacted to, @citrusfruits. If I click the “start private conversation”-button, the email address of the user is revealed. That’s not bad in itself if the user is informed about it. But I didn’t see any information in the otherwise user friendly onboarding about revealing my email address.

Oh. Also. If I lose my VPS my network is still functioning to a degree. If you lose your wireguard server I believe you’re out of luck?

Good question. I could achieve the same with Tailscale or Innernet, both using Wireguard. So perhaps my answer has to be that Yggdrasil tickles my interest in mesh networking.

I have two devices split by VNET and not routed out to the internet. I connect those two and a VPS to create a small Yggdrasil network. This allows me to access all three devices from “anywhere”. Would use again.
