    • switched to a split ergonomic mechanical keyboard
    • working on a fork of Lemmy geared toward inventory called “Lemventory”
    • moderating multiple Lemmy communities that are basically ghost towns (and I don’t care)
    • got rid of my Instagram (and all centralized forms of social media except YouTube) and replaced it with Pixelfed and others
    • letting my NixOS flag fly much more regularly now
    • hexbear defederation only created a Streisand Effect and piqued my curiosity about Marxism. I’m now much better educated about it and have come to conclude that lemmy.world is basically filled with smug, tech-bro, hive-mind, blue maga, chuds that support censorship of simple ideas and subscribe to blind, disingenuous American exceptionalism that wouldn’t even stand up to the most generous critical analysis.

        I’m not sure since I don’t write any lua. But, I’d recommend tree-sitter if you haven’t used it yet.

      I’m both curious and clueless about what “geared towards inventory” could possibly mean

        Here’s the gist of my idea so far:

        stores (or alliances of stores in similar industries) :: instances

        inventory items :: posts

        counts :: votes

        item categories (or entire stores depend on implementation) :: communities

        moderators are only allowed to post items to their own community or instance.

        comments can still exist (perhaps as item reviews with the same upvote/downvote mechanic).

        No actual transactions would be processed over this protocol. It would be solely for inventory broadcast/aggregation (like Shopify in that it houses the inventory of many vendors except without the transaction ability built-in since pub-sub is horrible for that kind of thing).

        Edit: if you have any opinions (even “what a stupid idea!”) I’d be open to them. I haven’t even written a single line of code yet and it’s a fresh idea in my head waiting to be shot down by someone less idealistic than myself.
