Just checked, the calendar.social domain would cost almost 1000€. Either I choose a different name or, given the project becomes semi-successful, I start a fundraiser.

I didn’t have too much time today as I woke up too late, but at least I added the logo to the page. Tomorrow I plan to work on proper time zone support. Reminders, on-instance invitations, and notifications are next.

Meanwhile I’m planning the future API, and the details of what and how should be federated. Ideas welcome.

it turns out medical questionnaires are more expensive than i remember and the course that implied they would be paying weekly in fact pay uhhh bi-monthly. i accounted for what i thought was a realistic worst case scenario of waiting another month before i got paid.
i have enough money to cover me for the next week or so and despite my protests apparently i need it to stretch to the second week of august so if you wanna help out or boost i would appreciate it.

The world is terrible and everything is scary, but don’t forget love. It’s still there and it’s still beautiful. We’re all scared and angry and tired, but don’t forget to love yourself and let others know that they’re loved.

Take care of yourselves and each other. Be kind to yourselves and to those who deserve your kindness.

Much better.

While thinking about some implementation details, my thought were wondering around an icon.

Searching for calendar icons yielded this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cd/Circle-icons-calendar.svg

My first thought was to make the number smaller and add a circle above as if it were a head. But I’m open to any ideas; as I often tell in the office, if I have to do the design work, we can simply close our business 😂

i feel like on the old internet there was probably a guy with an angelfire page about how to write a whole TWAIN driver. on the new internet i find nothing but abandoned forum posts asking the same question, OR questionable third party driver suppliers trying to get me to download their updater app

The number of times I try to click on a toot to read the thread and the timeline updates by the time my finger moves is kinda unacceptable.

I’m well aware that many people use non-Gregorian calendars. I try to keep this fact in mind during development. What other system (Chinese lunar calendar, Persian calendar, etc.) would be relevant to you?
