The first search (A) does now find the toot above, so maybe part of the issue with (A) is that the three words are within linked text.

(B) remains a mystery.

@stefano as if you have nothing better to do … does something index-related need a nudge?

A/ seeking "FreeBSD user groups" (non-quoted) <https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/search?q=FreeBSD+user+groups&type=statuses> does not find <https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin@billboard.bsd.cafe/116458512546395480> (2026-04-24)

B/ also, the toot is not found by <https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/search?q=from%3A%40grahamperrin%40billboard.bsd.cafe&type=statuses>.

The toot is visible under <https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@grahamperrin@billboard.bsd.cafe> for logged-in users of BSD Cafe Mastodon. (NLI users get the prompt to redirect.)

Thanks

Lost and found in Mastodon

TIL: when the Back button in Mastodon can not take me back to something, I can use the web browser to browse back.

Why has it taken more than two years for me to discover something so obvious?

@alfonsosiciliano count me in (privately) for link sharing. Thanks.

In the meantime, not video, but <https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1smvzxf/comment/ogkc446/?context=1> is an example where wrongness produced by AI is probably wrongness that originates in the FreeBSD Handbook. Food for thought.

Cc @poes @stefano

@alfonsosiciliano Google often auto-removes (silently hides from the public) public comments that include links.

It's horribly frustrating.

@darth I think, the real story is BSD Cafe – thanks to @stefano for creating spaces where people can so freely discuss their preferences

How the Foundation’s Laptop Support & Usability Project Came Together

#FreeBSD #Foundation <https://freebsdfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/goodkin.pdf> (PDF) | <https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-work/journal/browser-based-edition/laptop-desktop/how-the-foundations-laptop-support-usability-project-came-together/> (HTML) @FreeBSDFoundation

＂… The Laptop Support & Usability Project is not just about laptops. It is about making FreeBSD more usable, more approachable, and more practical for the kinds of day-to-day use cases that help bring people into the community and keep them there. …＂

@dgoodkin wow. Thank you. I haven't seen as good an overview of a complex project, and its context, in a long time. Years.

Call for testing: introducing the Laptop Integration Testing project

@FreeBSDFoundation @thismarkp hey you'll find a copy of this post at:

Firefox automatically offers to translate this Italian JPEG.

That's wonderful, but not as wonderful as knowing neither the meaning of the imagery, nor why.
