Tilde Friends 0.2026.8 is working its way through the various review processes and release pipelines.

The chess app is the most exciting part to me, though that has been usable since I published it independently weeks ago. It is also very work in progress, but we totally played a game, so there's that.

I've been gradually building up and automating various web-facing things. In addition to the files in the gitea releases, I am publishing deb files, AppImage, and docker container images to a gitea package repository.

The blog link on www.tildefriends.net leads to a bespoke blog app showing my latest #tildefriends posts. I realize I'm not clever enough to maintain a whole separate channel of content, so visitors/scraper/feed readers/what have you will get what I'm already occasionally posting here.

Chess in Tilde Friends seems to be coming along. Are there operational other clients and available people that I may attempt to play against? Note: I am no good.

I just sent off a Tilde Friends 0.2026.7 release. Among other things, gathering support is new.

What does Tilde Friends need? No wrong answers.

Today's weather is "wildfire smoke." I can't say I'm getting used to this, though I suppose it has happened the last few summers now. Everything looks a little yellowish and smells a bit off.
