My side project today was to configure email sending for both name@userid.omg.lol (using free tier of Zoho Mail) and userid@omg.lol (using 30 days free trial of Fastmail).
Both options were easy to setup and are working as expected!
Decluttering my Mac desktop
I came accross this Medium post today and it’s providential that it appeared just when I need to declutter my Mac desktop for the new year.
It lists 5 Mac apps that helps to both organize the desktop and to increase the user productivity; one of them I am already using (HazeOver) and can recommend it myself; the other 4 I wil try soon.
The apps on the post are:
- Bartender (16USD)
- HazeOver (2USD)
- Raycast (free)
- Dropover (5USD)
- AltTab (free)
🏃 Don’t wait anymore: omg.lol price will increase soon. Last days at US$5/year. Grab as many years as you can: home.omg.lol/referred-… (my referral link).
Just discovered omg.lol and I´m in love with it
I wasn’t looking for any new web service in particular or for another mastodon instance, but when I discovered omg.lol on the micro.blog timeline, it was impossible not to sign it up immediately and start playing with all the services offered.
omg.lol is combo of services that includes a cool domain (like mdalves.omg.lol ), a landing (or profile) page, a mastodon instance (social.lol), e-mail forwarding, full e-mail (partnering with fastmail), DNS configuration, Pastebin, URL shortener, blog hosting and more yet to come.
The landing page is an excellent and affordable alternative to services like taplink or linktree; their mastodon instance is an easy and quick to enter and explore the fediserve so you can start your migration from Musk´s Twitter (I´m already on the process).
omg.lol is currently priced at US$5/year, but it will change to US$20 next January, so hurry up and pay for many years in advance. Please consider siging up using my referral link: https://home.omg.lol/referred-by/mdalves.
Evaluating MarsEdit 5
Hi, this is just a test post from MarsEdit 5, released today. Yet to decide if it´s worth the price as I am not an avid blogger and, when converting the price in US Dollars to Brazilian Reais, it is an expensive purchase.
It took me some time to configure MarsEdit as the help pages on both MarsEdit and micro.blog sites are not very clear, but it seems to be OK now.
