If you’re trying to migrate from Apple’s services you might be an enjoyer of “Private Relay” email addresses—a randomly generated email you can use to protect your privacy when signing up for new online accounts.
Fastmail offers a similar “Masked Email” feature and can even integrate with Bitwarden and OnePassword. Check it out: fastmail.help/hc/en-us/article…

A Masked Email address is a unique, automatically generated email address that can be used in place of your real email address. Masked Email addresses are especially useful when you need to sign up...Fastmail
I use IronVest for masked emails and it has been good. They offer other services but I haven’t tried them.
Similarly I use a service called Privacy for credit card masking and it has worked well.
I never worked up this 2016 photo from the Peruvian Amazon because I was running into trouble identifying the wasp, in spite of its distinct markings.
But taxonomic resources are more accessible a decade on, and I'm happy to announce that she's the rarely photographed Polistes torresae.

Redundant Engagement Counts?
How would people feel about a future version of Bookface removing the engagement counts from the Action Button? Now that the response info is reduced to an icon and a number the count on the Action Button with the same icon is redundant and makes the UI unnecessarily cluttered.
I know since the beginning of Bookface some people have found the engagement counts on the buttons too "busy" or "distracting" but before I remove them I thought I'd ask how people feel about that?
I don't know if anyone else has noticed it, but sometimes the engagement counts and responses don't agree. I *think* this is because the engagement counts are subtracting your own interactions? So in the screenshot above it's not counting my 2 comments and not counting my "Like" on the buttons, but is counting them in the response totals. Getting rid of the counts on the buttons would eliminate this inconsistency.
Thoughts?
You have understood correctly. The count list under the function button can be deactivated.
@Random Penguin
On the Share or Like button, you only see a mouseover that displays the names of the users, but no clickable preview with a link to the user profile. This was seen as a shortcoming. Many users not only want to see who has clicked a button, but also want to jump to the profile.
It was therefore discussed in the project whether a separate view was needed in which the user clicks are displayed and the profiles can be called up. If I remember the discussion correctly, the behaviour should be similar to Mastodon.
Unfortunately, I can't find the issues at the moment.
@Random Penguin
Oh, that's great. I think something like that would fit very well. It connects the separate functions in Friendica and provides real added value. I think that was the goal in the issues and could be realised identically for Frio and Vier.
Please bear in mind that I am quoting the issues from memory, as I unfortunately cannot find them.
[frio] find solution / workaround for mouseover event on mobile
On frio desktop there are some places that utilize mouseover to show additional info like post action icon number (showing users who interacted) hovercard (TBD whether to keep or not #13453) There ...foss- (GitHub)
:active state which triggers it on tap. This is alongside the :hover state for mouse and :focus and :focus-within which trigger it for keyboard/screenreader.
But changing it would require a bunch of edits to core files, which would break all the existing themes.
Maybe this is something we could make an issue for and see if there's support for it? I don't think other themes besides Vier and Frio are maintained (and Vier is barely maintained, which IMO makes sense given how powerful but also really complex themes are, not just being CSS overrides) so we'd just have to update those two.
Also I think the count mismatch should be reported, as long as other themes show them. I can do that using/referencing your image if that's ok.
About the like count differences I wonder if it's because the line includes all reactions and thus counts that emoji as one as well...?
When the icon is directly on the like button it kinda makes sense it's all likes only. In that case all of the reacts should have individual counters. Otherwise they could be dropped and there could be a total counter only, which perhaps expand to show the individual distribution or something like that.
Like Facebook, as you show above.
I think this game is more fun on a quiet day of the week, because then you can see your fish swim in the tank.
But just watching the tank is a lot of fun!

"From considerations of content management tools, to content export, static site generators, external resources, lightweight media and hosting methods, we'll look at tools to analyse website content (using browser inspector tools), figure out what they require (using traceroute), how to build small websites, and ideas of how to reduce the weight of existing websites."
This is the last of a three-part workshop series, the first looked at small-scale power generation, the second considered how to repurpose portable devices (for web hosting and more) and this final one is about #smolweb. See you on the 6th! Please do
