@kagi.com loving the translate app as its super convenient for my phone! Any updates on when it will get the language level translation option found in the web version?? Being able to translate for my level is super useful when finding out what I could do better in a manageable way.

This was a fun problem to solve. I'll be doing a small write-up about it soon
Yōten now supports @ mentions! Mention people in study sessions and replies to keep conversations moving.
I had people requesting sign languages and the previous system couldn't support it due to a hard-coded list of ISO 639-1 language codes. Supporting all of ISO 639-3 is a huge step forward and much needed work into creating a more supportive environment for learners of all languages.
Learning a less common language or regional variant? Yōten now supports all ISO 639-3 language codes! This includes sign languages and even historical languages like Middle Korean. Join us at yoten.app and comment below with what you’re learning.
I've created my own gopher hole! Starting today, you can read all my blogs via gopher://brookjeynes.dev I wrote a bit more about it here: brookjeynes.dev/writings/202...
You should leave your garage door open brookjeynes.dev/writings/202... Working in the open shows your passion. It shows you care about the craft. I believe this way of working fosters a community of like-minded people. So heed this post as my pledge to work with my garage door open.
I love @pckt.blog I love @leaflet.pub Both of these platforms have made blogging feel personal again! Not to mention the editors feel great. ps. multi-lingual blogs still need some love. being able to write my blogs in two languages and giving the user a toggle would save the need of multi-posting
Korea has some fun train sounds so I wrote about those used in Busan brookjeynes.pckt.blog/-zcbadj6
부산 안내방송이 신기해요 - 호주에서 온 브룩
최근에 처음 부산에 갔는데 지하철 안내방송이 가장 신기했습니다. 호주보다 한국이 더 다양한 지하철 안내방송 있었습니다. 호주에서 지하철 올 때 목소리만 들립니다. 하...

The new modal looks great! I've struggled onboarding users who don't know what the at-proto is and I think this takes a big step forward into making that process clearer
Inspired by the work being done by @ilynxcat.me and @mmatt.net, Yōten's login page got a refresh! The login input now has a handle type-ahead to make finding your handle easier in addition to a new helpful modal to inform users what the ATmosphere is!
I recently had the pleasure to deep-dive into a topic I've been wanting to learn about for a while - Korean romanization. Before this, I never knew how deep the history surrounding this topic was. brookjeynes.dev/writings/kor...

What if you could review PRs without ever opening a browser? Here's how I review PRs from the comfort of my terminal!

This will save me so much time!
Logging your study session just got easier for those of you who use Anki! We've just released an Anki addon that will automatically capture your study sessions and allow you to quick-add them to Yōten. You can read more about it at tangled.org/yoten.app/yo...

A number of potential users found the previous permission set invasive, which it unfortunately was. With the introduction of permission sets, Yōten now only requires permissions to modify its own lexicons!
Thanks to auth scopes, Yōten now only requires permissions to modify and act on its own resources!
You heard it here folks, @yoten.app truly is the coolest! Go check it out if you haven't and have been looking for the perfect language tracking solution. (Axew is definitely the coolest as well)
@brookjeynes.dev yoten is so cool! And so is Axew!
Hey @kagi.com! Do you guys have any plans on a Kagi maps mobile app - even if it does redirect to google/apple maps for directions. It's a little painful being sent a Kagi maps link and it opening in the browser, auth'ing, then loading 😅
I've been recently trying to write more in Korean to practice my output. @leaflet.pub and @yoten.app have been big motivators to make this happen. In an attempt to make me more consistent I've been making them all public. Check out my latest one here chooky-writes-korean.leaflet.pub/3m4uuaovlms2w

I've only had good experiences with Kagi Translate. I'm very impressed with the quality (English <> Korean). Finally a use of AI that's practical! Its ability to translate based on provided context, tone, and speakers gender blew me away. Not to mention it's cultural hints when translating.
Instant, accurate, contextual translations. Oh, and did we mention zero trackers? www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysZq...
Don't like Discord? Yōten now has an IRC channel! Come join us in #yoten @ libera.chat
When tracking your study habits, what information is most important to you? What graphs / stats would help you the most when determining what you're doing is working. What graphs / stats keep you motivated? I'm looking at expanding on and improving the statistics shown on @yoten.app
Hey @nooki.me! Loving Nooki so far but some of the dark mode artifacts are making their way into light mode 🥲 ps, is the code live on tangled yet? 👀
(1/4) I'm soft launching nooki.me to get some early traction and feedback on what to improve. Excited to see how this platform grows!
Lots of new changes! The addition of replies has already lead to some great discussions within peoples study sessions!
A lot has changed since the last update so let's rapid fire through a couple of these! - You can now reply to others comments. - You can install Yōten as a PWA! - The oauth has been re-worked to use the new indigo oauth lib. - The website finally has a favicon, whoops...

This one took a bit longer to get out but I'm glad it's there! Looking forward to seeing people use it.
Your study sessions just became a conversation. 💬 We're so excited to launch comments in Yōten! Now you can ask questions, share tips, or just cheer someone on directly on their study session. Because language learning is a journey best shared. Dive in and connect! (replies coming soon)
Ever wonder if anyone sees your study sessions? Wonder no more. Notifications for follows and reactions are now live in Yōten! Stay in the loop and feel the support from the community. These will be iterated on to include more information and links soon! Check out what you've missed on yoten.app!
