@yostos I like the image one. I’ve had a simple resize one for a while, but didn’t think to go as far as you did. Thanks!


@jonah Yeah, Sumo is much more opinionated about css than Tiny.


@estebantxo I'm glad to hear it. Sorry about the delayed response, I never saw a notification for this.


@yostos I am definitely saving this and will give it a shot. In the meantime, I managed to get FileFlows up and running. It was a port issue that I was having trouble diagnosing.

As a separate question, I'd love to see what you use Hazel for beyond this. My setup for it is pretty basic, but I know I'm leaving a lot on the table.​


@Mtt I managed to get it working with FileFlows, but that app has been unreliable (freezes). I’m guessing it’s possible with Hazel + ffmpeg/Handbrake, but I haven’t been able to fully work it out. ChatGPT gets me close, but not all the way. (2/2)


@Mtt The best place to buy buckets is Firehouse Subs if you have one close by. $3 for a quality 5 gallon bucket with the lid included.

I also have some from Lowe’s, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, and Sam’s. Lowe’s even has half sized ones.

Am I now a bucket enthusiast? Collector? Addict?


@crossingthethreshold After 1 day, I'm really liking it. You could create a Shortcut that mimics a lot of the features, but nothing nearly as elegant as it is. Right now, I'm already considering making the Lifetime purchase. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm thinking maybe your brain works similar to mine. Do you have any other suggestions?

Here are some of my favorite apps/etc:

  • Remind Me Faster (iOS)
  • Reminders MenuBar​ (Mac)
  • Custom Shortcut for Adding Notes (lets me quickly choose a folder or audio note)
  • ShareShot for Screenshots (iOS)
  • StopTheMadness and Wipr (Safari) ​- Carrot's Hidden Premium Mini Subscription
  • A crazy ugly background when phone is in DND mode so I don't forget​

@crossingthethreshold Now that is interesting! I’m giving it a shot for sure. Do you do anything special on the email client side with rules/filters/etc? Or just keep it in inbox?


@chrisheck Appreciate the kind words. We celebrated with steak dinners and handmade gifts from the grandkids. Good night for all.


@jinscho Probably the leading contender right now.


@jonah Doesn’t appear so. 😕


@jagibson That's good to know. I'll see if it works!


@Mtt Ideas I've toyed around with:

  • A separate (private) email address and client for this sole purpose -​ A single user Slack/Discord
  • Creating a second AppleID and sending messages to it
  • Appending notes to a single note in any simple notes app

None are perfect, but all are manageable if I can't find something else


@manton That's awesome! Appreciate all the hard work.


@pratik Thanks! Manton and the Micro.blog community have been great. No better place!


@esamecar Thank you!


@manton I love that idea. The only thing I’d (potentially) add is default dummy content. But I could see pros and cons of that.


@manton That’s really generous. I definitely appreciate it. Thanks for reading!


@estebantxo Very well done and well documented!


@MitchW Appreciate it!


@bw @adam Oh that’s great! Perfect. Love it.


@rscottjones Will do. Thanks!


@skoobz Appreciate the check-in. We ended up pretty good. For the most part, it took a slightly unexpected eastward route that spared us.


@pratik What is your current cross post strategy? Are you maintaining separate accounts everywhere? I currently just use the Micro.blog Mastodon account thing.


@grubz @larand Thanks. I thought I’d seen a couple blogs where replies showed, but I might’ve gotten stuff mixed up.
