I've been plodding along at making a Nostr powered RSS reader to replace my FreshRSS instance (the last traditional self hosted web service I'm running). I think this, and the million other CVEs in the last week or so, is my sign to migrate away from traditional self hosting.

Looks like store.app is shutting down (PWA app listings), could be an opportunity to build something to take its place using Nostr

Stopping at the liquor store during my lunch break, then pulling back into work with two sealed liquor bottles in my backpack, feels like I'm gonna get into myself in trouble even though I'm not breaking any rules lol.

Looks like there's a mobile fork of Artcraft:

https://github.com/artcraft-android

Aside from getting desktop Gimp/Darktable running via the integrated terminal or via Termux, there's really never been a good in depth photo editor on Android. Looking forward to see how this develops.

Artcraft was cool as a benchmark of what AI can do, and for being compatible with Adobe files, but at least up until now it hasn't been doing too much that the existing open source projects weren't capable of. Bringing some serious software to Android is something the existing projects don't appear to think is worth their time (understandable, given their volunteering it), but it's a seriously underserved niche. Outside of photoshop for mobile, the second best is probably Snapseed (free, by Google), but it's nowhere near as capable as the desktop editors (free or paid).

Right now, my phone is docked to a screen with a mouse and keyboard. It's no less capable of editing than many computers in terms of input or processing power. To get an editor that acknowledges that would be greatly appreciated, and I think the vibe coded alternative to the Adobe suite is about to provide a lot of value that doesn't exist elsewhere.

Is there a stupidly easy way to run a relay on some old hardware or something?

Cloudflare Tunnel + the Python relay installed via PIPX might be the fastest & easiest. I've toyed with each separately, but not combined, and AI says that Cloudflare might drop the connection if a client doesn't keep reaching out to the relay more than once every 100 seconds.

If you have a open port on your router or VPpN, or wanted to toy around with Tor/I2P/FIPS, the tunnel requirements don't matter.

"AI says." There it is. The new oracle. You're building a digital leash for yourselves, and Cloudflare, like every other gatekeeper, will happily tighten it. More reliance on black box systems, less control. Enjoy your "fastest & easiest" path to digital serfdom.

GN. This morning's frost killed most of my plants, guess it's about that time of year. Got my last substantial harvest tonight.
