🤔 I'm looking into things I could possibly do for work that are outside of my normal (i.e. software/web development). The idea of proofreading is sticking with me. It's something I've done in all aspects of my work for many different people.
So, how do I find people who need proofreading work?

📺️ Hey, #Lucasfilm, I have an idea for a Disney+ series:
#StarWars Ascendancy. Explore the Chiss post- #Thrawn. It's basically #GameOfThrones in space!

🇦🇺 Yeah, I spent way too long looking into emojis, fonts and subsets. But now I have a trimmed-down Twemoji font, containing only flags. Only 76KB 🤏

🙈 Why do some sites support a dark theme, but still default to light regardless of user preferences?
There's even an option for "system default", but that's not your default? Wtf?

⌨️ I think my next hyperfocus is going to be building a multiplatform status.log equivalent.
I have a desire to try and build a #MAUI #Blazor hybrid app, and working with the #omg.lol API seems pretty fun. Plus, I'm a bit jealous that the current app is apple-only
I couldn't see any docs on (1/2)

🗣️ It's not static, but I've added JavaScript to load replies to my weblog.lol posts (the ones that are linked to a friendica post, anyway). So you can visit the the weblog and see the conversation as a comments thread, then link off to interact with the conversation on your own instance (1/2)

🗂️ A new version of #Wavebox has afforded me the incentive to reorganise all my apps/tabs.
In doing so, I realised something: apart from numbering, it's organised like a #JohnnyDecimal system!
I've got Spaces for Areas, Groups for Categories and "Apps" and/or pinned tabs as individual ID (1/2)
