Tänään tasan vuosi sitten oli Turussa taka-taka-takatalvi, jonka ansiosta liikkeelle ei olisi aamulla päässyt näillä kulmin sen paremmin talvirenkailla kuin juuri vaihdetuilla kesilläkään. Omaksi onneksi tarvitaan autoa vain kerran viikossa, mutta käynee mittatikusta.

Saisisiko tästä ässän tai peräti trump-cardin rikkaiden peliin ilmastonmuutoksesta, en tiedä, mutta jälkimmäisen suhteen ilahduttanee sekä parin vuoden takainen hieno kiteytys ilmastovetkuttelun dialogeista https://static.cambridge.org/binary/version/id/urn:cambridge.org:id:binary:20201217105842006-0519:S2059479820000137:S2059479820000137_fig1.png, että Guardianin juttu siitä, kuinka ehkä suotta arvelemme naapuriemme tiedostavan vähemmän, https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/22/activate-climate-silent-majority-support-supercharge-action

Mitä (kaikkea) kautta meille yhä syötetään de facto ilmastodenialistista propagandaa, ja miten on mahdollista, että "Titanic" jatkaa kurssillaan?

Pondělní Community Builders Meetup Prague (fotil Lukáš Návesník). Diskutovali jsme o komunitních nástrojích: Discordu, Slacku, Discourse a LinkedIn. Já coby zastánce #Discourse jsem zopakoval svou tradiční mantru, že stavět komunitu na cizí platformě je ověřená cesta do pekel. Na oplátku si odnáším velmi férový postřeh, že komunity je potřeba stavět tam, kde lidi reálně jsou – v současnosti tedy zejména na uzavřených komerčních platformách. Je smutný, že to aktuálně nejde skloubit.

Speaking of #EuropeanAlternatives, is there any for #TransactionalMail ? Not email providers, not newsletter providers, but those third parties that offer you a mail server to send email notifications and etc from your website.

In my case, it's for #Discourse instances. I'm still using #Mailgun which, well, may or maybe not count as European given its owner #Sinch, but also I'd like to migrate to a more fair and social option if possible (also not to just a brand cover with AWS underneath).

Hello Monday! If anyone from #discourse is out there, I just sent an email and resume in hopes to apply for a Software Engineer - Infrastructure position, and I hope you will consider me for this or any other relevant role there. I’m super cool, easy to work with, and can do magic with pretty much any Linux or Unix computer, applications, networking, virtual machines and other technologies. Thanks!

Started to look at what modern forums look like now. Besides #discourse.

#nodebb is nice. Somewhat simple. #nodejs, #redis, and #mongodb.

#flarum is very intuitive. #php and #mariadb. Runs light and smooth.

Flarum liking for simplicity. Although nodebb has fediverse magic.

Been using #Discourse for a full decade.

I'm grateful for this awesome software that enables long term knowledge building and conversational communities, far away from instant gratification of capitalist platforms.

Do you prefer reading a #Discourse forum in plain text mode?
Did you know you can turn any Discourse topic into markdown by adding /raw/ to the url.

So the url would be something example.com/raw/12345
(12345 being the id number of that topic)

That'll show the first 100 posts in that topic in plain text, and you can add ?page=2 at the end to view the next 200

I'm looking for a new comment system for my #Hugo blog, and I'm not seeing any clearly great options.

I've been using #Commento for #comments on my blog for a few years now, and it's about time to switch comment systems.

Commento has been effectively unmaintained for 4 years (see https://gitlab.com/commento/commento). Their (paid) hosted version has been continuing to work, but I've seen increasing numbers of errors lately, so it's time to move.

I'd really *love* something that could integrate semi-natively with #activitypub so new blog posts could show up in Mastodon and Mastodon replies would show up as comments, *but* I don't want to require a fediverse account for commenters; that rules out most (all?) of the embedded-Mastodon comment options.. After looking through Hugo's somewhat-outdated list of commenting options (https://gohugo.io/content-management/comments/), it looks like #Discourse is the only option that even *slightly* fits that, and it's a lot heavier-weight than I really want to run today. Hours-of-maintenance-per-comment should be less than 1, thanks.

Basic requirements:

- Either easy to self-host or has a cheap hosted option.
- Allows anonymous comments plus common external auth options.
- Possible to import comments from Commento, possibly requiring code on my part, but it needs to allow arbitrary names, etc.
- Works with static sites.
- Not a privacy disaster
- If self-hosted, ideally written in something sane -- Go, Rust, etc. *Ideally* it's a single binary that listens to HTTP and stores comments in Postgres.
- Supports Markdown.

Does anyone have anything that they're really happy with?
