Good morning, Malmö! I’m excited to hang out with and learn from people building messaging and social experiences on the open, decentralized Matrix protocol. 😊

And if you have any questions about @nprofile1q..., our open source trust & safety tools Coop & Osprey, or T&S in general, I’d love to chat!

My Ender 3v2 clogged up again and the filament is allllll over inside the hot end. This is not the first time, and there were a few other issues with the hot end, so I'm wondering if I should just get a new one since they're just like $20. Or is it worth spending a little more to get a direct drive kit? 🤔

How old is the Ender? I went with Bambu printers to start with. FIngers crossed I never have to deal with clogging. But I think that may be wishful thinking... hehe

If you participate in an open source project or community, when is the last time you actually read the code of conduct? 👀

If it’s been a while, I encourage you to go find and read it! It applies to everyone in the community, was written with care, and exists for a reason.

Community management and especially code of conduct enforcement is a tireless, oft-uncredited job. Help those folks out by reading, internalizing, and reiterating what they have written. 🙏

A little over a year ago I bought a pair of Pixel Buds Pro 2 because there was a sale, I liked the smaller size compared to the first gen, and my first gen batteries were starting to wear down. A few months ago the mics suddenly stopped working and I got a brand new set as a warranty replacement. Now this case has just… stopped charging, but Google is refusing to replace it because the warranty on the *defective earbuds I no longer* have is up. 😒

I’m typically a light mode during the day kinda person, but today is a headache-y dark mode kind of day. 😵

(App and website designers, I beg you: please respect platform color scheme preferences! It’s an accessibility thing! In both directions; some people have a hard time with light text on a dark background as well!)
