Yup, the Lemmy search feature must be broken again. ;)

But that shouldn't stop people giving OP new ideas. :)

  • Robohub

And a bunch of cycling news.

Every time this question comes up, I look at my list and realize a few feeds have stopped. So now I'm watching here for some new ideas. TIA y'all.

As someone else noted, they use a platform called Fireside. I wonder how hard it would be to self-distribute a podcast with thousands of listeners.

Ethan is great too and I use his website a lot.

Wow, super cool! Thanks for sharing this.

Static page route

Ooooh! I started down the PHP path and that's already working but now I like this idea of using JS and canvas more so I am going to go research that next. I have an nginx server running so this could work. (I wonder if this is how https://squoosh.app/ works since they claim it's all client-side too?)

Great suggestion, I didn't know was possible so thanks very much! 👍

I loved that app for like a year and yes, it was perfect. I don't know what changed but about 6 months ago, when I upload images to it, they were black rectangles and so it wouldn't shrink my images. No idea what caused that, I searched around and could not find a resolution so I moved on.

But also, it's owned by GOOG and that's a downside for me.

However, Squoosh utilizes Google Analytics to collect the following:

    Basic visitor data.     <-- what does this mean?
    The before and after image size value.
    If Squoosh PWA, the type of Squoosh installation.
    If Squoosh PWA, the installation time and date.

I should see if I can download the code, strip out their surveillance and then use it locally from there. Thanks for the tip!

Yah, thanks. In a pinch, I've been using GIMP but as you say, there's a lot to it and a lot of steps to this simple process.

I'm going to see if a AI tool can help hack together a simple web page. If I do, I'll share the code I end up with somewhere.

I'm happy with [dockge] (https://github.com/louislam/dockge) for now but thanks! If I ever decide to go full auto update, I'll check this out.

In unrelated news, billionaire Elon Musk announced he's launching a new home delivery service today.

The lines between mobile device and server get blurred even more.
