debugged a real-time data issue for 2 days, turns out my graphql query started with

query MyQuery {

instead of correctly

subscription MyQuery {

🥲

most desperate family dinner debate:

- a table full of signaling-believing relatives without college degrees from the 1980s
- they’re convinced that an engineering degree in 2022 is unconditionally useful for whatever field they assumed I’m in (and apparently FAANG is a field)

great easy reads this week: 1passwords' blog posts do an incredible job at explaining how their services work. super fun reads as well.

美国也算是体会了一下中国春运的节奏。各大机场都乱的不行，航空公司客服要排4-6小时的队😅 我突然对我下周的航班都没多少信心了

If iCloud Keychains have Chrome for macOS support I’d switch to it from 1Password immediately. Oh well, what are the chances of that happening…

@an it’s even more confusing with the execution of hierarchy. Views are not actionable. Views are not list-able. I think it falls within the same importance & hierarchy of information as the timestamp. But they made the decision to front and center it.

On the other hand I would even take a more arbitrary number like “voice strength” or whatever that’s more relative to users’ networks. Views is so annoying.

thank you auth0/jsonwebtoken for your early christmas gift bag of all these dependabot alerts, super appreciate it 🙏

@matthewstanciu paid a little more attention to Woolly past few days, it is super nice for people coming from the official Twitter client! Ivory is a little higher of a learning curve but super worth it.

I’m also really excited about Mona (from maker of the Spring app for Twitter) 👀

@ifvictr these, and Metatext (which I think recently stopped maintaining -- was pretty decent), Mastoot (another free one on the app store), and a few smaller ones. So far favorite is Ivory and Woolly.

Joined a bunch of Testflights of Mastodon clients and I’m so glad that some of the best teams and indie developers have collectively taken on this challenge and shipped super fast 🚀

There’s just so much craft and attention given to even the earliest builds of apps like @ivory and Mammoth. And they’re both still only testing!

just migrated my account to a chinese-speaking server, so expect to see bilingual content from me 👋
