Who out there in the #Fediverse would be interested in a federated 3d model hosting service, like a decentralised Thingiverse?
I'm building https://github.com/Floppy/van_dam as a personal self-hosted app to manage local files, but with I think a few changes it could also be a federated hosting tool, and my brain keeps thinking about having a go at making it speak #ActivityPub.
Thoughts, anyone? Worth a go?
@Floppy this sounds super cool!
@ashinonyx thanks! Glad you like the idea!
Also, I have a cat question and your bio says I should ask it! Why are their eye bogies black, when ours are much lighter in colour? Is that a thing, or do I just have a really dirty cat?
@Floppy thanks for asking! This was a fun one to answer 😊
First off: your cat’s not dirty! A little bit of eye booger is normal, but if they happen a ton and/or you find sticky, green/yellow mucus then visit a vet!
The reason cats & dogs have reddish-brown eye crusties is because they excrete porphyrins in their tears (we don’t usually). Porphyrins are a component of red blood cells and are mostly excreted in poop! They’re responsible for the poop’s brown colour. 💩
@ashinonyx hah! Amazing, thank you!
@floppy This is cool idea, definitely worth to go ahead. Fediverse is in Fast Forward nowadays i gess, so anything about ActivityPub protocol could be big thing in future, spciall unique ideas like yours
OR, is anyone else working on this already?
