The global search doesn't show nsfw results. That didn't even work when I tried doing it with my usual authentication headers for some reason. When you access a profile directly, it should work tho (unless one of my instances / accounts (signified by the number in the parenthesis) is currently rate limited). For instance, [https://farside.link/nitter] will open a working instance of Nitter. reliable in my experience. The main downside to using Nitter is that it relies on instances, and some of these may go down at times or permanently. Mobile Blogging at BlogWalk in Umea The theme for the fifth Blogwalk in Umea was “Blogging on the Move”. It was loosely inspired by the fact that Howard Rheingold gave a seminar and workshop before the Blogwalk on SmartMobs and the effects of mobile devices on our behaviour. A second reason was that it required a lot of mobility to get […]

We Installed Our First LED Light Bulb Today Today we installed our first LED light bulb. We got it as part of a national action by the ‘Nationale Postcodeloterij’ (‘national zip-code lottery’ where your zipcode is your lottery number). In this action all 2.5 million households that take part in the lottery get a LED lamp. That means that 1 out of every […]Q2: Can I post tweets using Nitter? Nitter primarily serves as a read-only interface, meaning you can view and interact with existing tweets, but posting new tweets is not supported. Hmm, doesn't appear like it's working for me. Anything I'm doing wrong or is this an issue on your end? For now I found a Dutch instance (on this list), and will see if adding some RSS feeds through them is workable.

Dr. Freddy and Moving the Frontiers of Learning Today I attended the public defense of the PhD thesis of Freddy Veltman-van Vugt, titled ‘Grensverleggend leren’ (roughly translates to ’moving the frontier of learning forward’). She focused on what it takes for teachers to learn and teach skills critical to our highly digitised and interconnected world in a self directed way. Her doctorate already […]

Nitter is nice, but the problem is how you can’t trust all instances, sometimes they don’t see the messages, sometimes they fail to do simple stuff, sometimes they don’t even work at all, or something fails. In my experience Nitter instances encounter less issues than other alternative services’ instances such as Invidious for YouTube, nevertheless I agree this may occur occasionally. Personally I’ve set a dedicated bookmarklet sub-folder in Firefox’s Bookmarks Toolbar to which I’ve added 5 simple scripts to handle 5 Nitter instances, allowing to switch easily from one to another : To (Web2.0) Developers: I Want Control of My Data, I Want to Write My Own Rules I sure am with Doc Searls and Dave Winer on this one. I want control of my own data. And I want to write my own rules on how others may and may not use my data. First because if you tell me I have no friends simply because my data is not on your […]
