Apple Intelligence on board is an overt opposition alternative narrative to the venture capital funded insistence of “send your data to the A.I. cloud” as the only option in the market. #wwdc24

Wow. I called that one. “A.I. cloud” = BAD is going to be a thing.

I need to devote a single day to automation each month. This should return weeks and months of repetitive tasks time.

For #selfhosted #singleuser #mastodonadmin folks:

If you were to start over again fresh in 2025, what would be your preferred #fediverse alternative stack or project instead of #mastodon?

I was looking into #bimi again i.e. a TXT record in #dns that points to two things that might allow a fancy logo to magically appear in webmail inboxes

The location of your preferred inbox image
the location of your $$$$ cert that says to the world ‘yes that is my logo’ and I paid for it

Still, years later… I’m not sure I can justify $129 minimum per month to say I have a cert. So, I left off “a=” but I’m not sure if that breaks anything else.🤷‍♂️
