It's here! The PK1 desktop stand for the YoloLiv Instream vertical livestreaming box! The stand holds the Instream at the perfect angle to use it on your desk! Now you don't have to awkwardly mount it from the side on a tripod, or have it laying flat!

Shipping now! https://pk1.tv/pk1-instream-stand/

Hello internet friends!

What is the best way to share a set of photos with a select few people, while being able to add more photos over an extended period of time? Must not rely on creating an account like on iCloud.

I have my own thoughts but I am interested in other ideas!

I decided to try out NextCloud for this, it mostly works, but has some weird things:

• The new dashboard view is completely useless for this use case
• It's weird that I'm giving people an entire toolset just to be able to look at photos

also, the tools for managing photos are extremely limited, like not being able to adjust modification dates of photos, and not being able to choose sort order within albums

@aaronpk Pixelfed? https://pixelfed.org/

maybe? That's still way more social network-y than what I actually want, which is sharing photo albums with select people.

Reminder that you should own & host your content (if you can) - even if you use socials to amplify it, social media shouldn't be where it lives - Twitter, Instagram, etc are ephemeral and so incredibly short form and gets swept away in a raging river of content.
