💾 The File Count Challenge 🔎

Have you ever wondered how many PDFs, images, videos, or particular kind of files you have on your device? It is the time to find out.

I am hereby proud to officially launch a Fedi-wide file count challenge, in exclusive partnership with the 2025-27 class of @xpub 👾

💁 How to participate

Go to your main device (not mobile)
Open the terminal
Run find . | grep '.pdf$' -c (on Windows: gci -r | where Name -match '\.pdf$')
Repeat the previous command, replacing “pdf” with any file format you are interested in sharing. We suggest: jpg, mp3, and png. 🔆 Bonus: html, js, ttf, odt, svg
Take a screenshot of the output
Share the screenshot on the Fediverse, using the #fileCountChallenge hashtag (please, copy-paste the actual text from the terminal in the image description/alt text)
Add your (user)name and results to the scoreboard
🆒 Bonus: share the story explaining why you have so many/little files for one format.

🏆 Awards

There is a secret prize for the three people who have the most PDFs, JPEGs, and HTMLs. More info to follow.

Boost, share, fork… Do whatever you want, but please have fun while doing it.

In today’s prototyping class at @xpub we have been looking at Nginx logs live.

It is CRAZY to see the actual amount of bot connecting to our website and our wiki 😱🤬

I decided not to use any analytics on my website a while ago already, but I am wondering if it exist an Internet traffic measurement tool based exclusively on information from Nginx logs?

I would gladly prefer something simple that stays in the terminal, but I would not mind installing something that can be also publicly accessible (like Grafana).

I was waiting for all of them to be on the Fediverse to tag them all, and mark this moment for posterity:

this is when we decided we would get a Ham Radio license. 19 Jan 2026, 13:59:14 CET.

We really must do it now, @martina @wlwni @sevgiiiii + me

Of course we forgot to take more meaningful photos, but yesterday’s Intro to Local First at @xpub it was super interesting and insightful 💡

Thanks @tbernard and @p2panda ❤️

We were surprised and glad that @KingmaYpe discovered the event via the Fediverse and joined us, giving us an insight on Local-First and private Smart Meter measurements 👀

Last Wednesday, my fellow XPUB1 classmates and me wrapped up the trimester with a collective folding, binding, and paginating party to make A_Mazing Machine[s]: Wordscapes to Liberate Language, the printed publication of our Special Issue 28!

My first few months at @xpub have been incredible. I am so proud of my classmates, the work we did together, and what we learned. I am also very grateful to our tutors, who have been super kind and inspiring!

All information, plus a PDF of the printed version, made with WeasyPrint is available on this Eleventy website we created to share all the things that we explored. It mirrors our incredible, legendary wiki. It was very interesting and insightful, so I published my notes about Using MediaWiki as a CMS for Eleventy.
