wow https://hexbear.net turned on federation. for those who don't know, they were one of the first subs pushed off reddit years ago who set up a Lemmy for their community (el chapo trap house) looks like there are some interesting subs worth following there like https://hexbear.net/c/indigenous @liaizon Try #ndtv https://www.eastmojo.com/ https://countercurrents.org/ and https://www.himalmag.com/ in increasing order from centre to left Not necessarily on fedi. But try @mastodonindians and #MastIndia for a range of updates from South Asia "A History of The Mocko Jumbie" didn't read article, was just researching the history of stilt walking with @lake met my first local punk just now and they said they are down to hang tomorrow. excited to understand what punkdom means in the #casablanca context I sense gutterpunk / oogle adjacent vibes but am sure there is a totally different categorization in the Arabisphere super cute stick figure drawn into the wet clay of the medina walls in #casablanca #morocco Was trying to figure out if there is an active #OSM community in #Morocco @liaizon Yep, there's an active OSM Community in Morocco :) ProofOfConcept : check the changes ^-^ "As the operations expanded, the company reportedly let rabbits roam the offices to inspire creativity." via https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Magic#cite_note-GM_quits-2 Sitting in a cafe in #Casablanca, #Morocco this late morning. Most places are not on Google Maps so I thought to check and see, and yes, it is not listed. So I added it to @openstreetmap via @organicmaps. @openstreetmap @organicmaps @liaizon I just learned the moors are the same tribe as the More’s of the west and Maur’s of Punjab. They are Sythian Jats who fled an invasion. Some headed west and others south. @liaizon you may enjoy https://streetcomplete.app/! it gives you small quests to complete osm data at your current location, prompting for things like wheelchair accessibility, outdoor amenities and many more. Having trouble transcribing the #Arabic name of the cafe, if someone cares to help update: فضاء سلا according to @WahbAllat Look up any of the place names mentioned in that article, every one has the diacritics removed. Imagine if a magazine removed all the vowels from American English. "Bdn flw frm Nw Yrk t Ls Ngls" It seems something to transport fish. How many people do you know in the "civilized" world who would put some cardboards below it to avoid stinky drips on the public road? I wonder if its cause I am in a weird time zone or some other reason but my posts have been getting way less traction lately then last month #Azorius is a new part of the #threadiverse started by Ted Unangst (@tedu) of notorious #Honk fame. It is already federating with #Kbin (https://azorius.net/g/tech@kbin.social) and #Lemmy (https://azorius.net/g/linux@lemmy.ml) It is written in #Go and is under active development (https://humungus.tedunangst.com/r/azorius/h) :fediverse: :fediverse: :fediverse: the #fediverse continues on! Yep, already subscribed to a group from lemmy. Cool! That’s how many federated platforms with good group support? Lemmy, kbin, friendica/hubzilla, azorius …? |
