GREEN’S DICTIONARY OF SLANG

Green has been compiling and updating it since 1993, it’s amazing
stick it in your bookmarks and don’t forget to consult it when you see a strange turn of phrase

Finally made that tool I've been planning for a while: A configurable batch deleter of #Mastodon #bookmarks, supporting a threshold date (i.e. only older bookmarks considered) and lists of accounts and hashtags to always keep.

Installed #Vivaldi today (I had been using #Firefox for the past ... 20 years or so?) - First Impressions:

• it is really fast (definitely faster than FF)
• very easy to import bookmarks from Firefox (exported html)
• uBlock and Zotero connector work fine
• adding No A…

So yes, BlueSky finally has bookmarks.
Before this feature came out, people had simply been replying to posts with a 📌 emoji and there was a dedicated feed where you could view your 📌’ed posts.
In an example of how to roll stuff out, someone made an importing tool that either moved OR copied your 📌 posts to bookmarks (saved posts)
VERY well done.

v1.108 is rolling out today 🚚 Now live, at long last: Bookmarks, aka Saved Posts. For all those posts you'll definitely plan to come back to! Update the app and give it a try. The button is right down there 👇

iOS 26 und iPadOS 26: Verändertes Web-App-Verhalten auf dem Homescreen

Bonus almost unreadable "Reading List" text overlaying each enormous icon.

* Swipe gestures on Windows: trackpad/touch swipes for back/forward.
* Better performance for “hibernated” tabs: waking them up faster.

After so many years of syncing, saving and importing bookmarks I finally spend some time on floccus. Sync it over my git repo. Worth my donation after further trial.
Amazing tool!
