  • That essentially boils down to “build your own solution”, which under my current circumstances amounts to “don’t do it”. Not that I lack the skill or will but the spare time and energy I have is used on my baby daughter. I can’t justify rabbit holing on something like this.

    It’s why I created this thread - to see if there’s a software and hardware combo that solves this with minimal additional work.











  • You’re getting ragged on but I would very much prefer an approach with these things that used some sort of modular system.

    I’m imagining the service would have the option for “address for communication bridge” and it’d pass messages to it using JSON or something. The communication bridge would then decide which medium that would go through (email, SMS, smoke signals, whatever the owner configures).

    As far as the service is concerned messages come and go (or just go) and how that side of things works isn’t its problem. It’d also mean that one could configure fallback messaging mediums and use dummy ones for if one doesn’t want anything like that (much like the “emails print to the console” debug tool Django has).


  • I don’t know what’s worth tagging and what isn’t. I don’t know which tags are popular and so have followers vs. which ones aren’t.

    The information exists but isn’t presented anywhere convenient.

    If I have to do homework before posting a picture I’m massively more inclined not to bother, which isn’t particularly good for the Fediverse.

    I would love something that could give me suggestions for relevant and popular hashtags for my content.
