  • I know how federation works, but look at the network inspector and you’ll see you’re pulling a lot of images from Cloudflare-proxied sites (or you’re missing a lot, if you’ve blacklisted them).

    Anyway, I only meant that even Lemmy, with its anti-corporate culture, is still heavily using Cloudflare. “Only” 22% is still a lot in my book.

    I’m interested as to your motives - are you doing this as a boycott, and/or to protect your privacy (or similar)? Also, are you blocking domains one-by-one, or are doing something like using firewall rules?

    It’s a very different kind of beast, but I’m very much enjoying it so far. Linking things is definitely Joplin’s weak point whereas this is a core strength for logseq.

    I often used bullet points in my Joplin notes, so having that as the default works for me too. However, since Op has said they want plain text notes Obsidian seems like a better fit (although logseq does save pages as text it’s not what it feels like in use).



  • I feel that auto-generated descriptions are going to generally be terrible, even with the new GPT AIs. There’s too much context needed to do a good job to be able to just feed an image into some code and get something useful.

    On the other hand, transcriptions should be able to be done more accurately, particularly with a bit of extra logic to recognise forms like Twitter posts.

    Some database of alt-texts might be possible by scraping for alt-texts and transcriptions from the fediverse, reddit, etc, but a quick search didn’t come up with anything.
