If you're registered at those other instances, you can create another profile(s) in Jerboa that connects to them, and then using that profile, browse by Local, I suppose.

I'm registered at both lemmy.cafe and lemmy.ca, and have profiles for both registrations in Jerboa.

Otherwise, if you're registered only with Beehaw, I believe the answer is, "no, not in Jerboa, just with your device's normal web browser."

I was thinking the same thing. This is a fine example of the exception to the rule that you should not place the horizon in the middle of the frame.

Not NASA, Nasa.

I also have heard Squirrel, the first time I ever heard of SQL. It was in a webinar info session for just a very superficial top-level type of understanding, really intended for nothing more than to acquaint first-tier support staff with technical terms and concepts. "SQL stands for Structured Query Language. For short, we can call it 'sequel' or 'squirrel'." (Cue stupid clip-art graphic of a buck-toothed smiling squirrel on a tree branch, holding an acorn, because what's a webinar without insipid mnemonics?) That sort of thing.

I grokked the use of 'sequel', because the letter sequence S-Q-L is exactly that word, sans vowels, and even if schwas are substituted for the vowels, the pronunciation doesn't change much.

But for 'squirrel' I had to imagine that they were taking the R from 'queRy' and injecting it to make SQL into SQrL for the sake of a cute memory device that would resonate with people who weren't expected to have any interest or investment deeper than a front-line customer service drone.

I hope you have named these forks after Muppets.

From left to right, they are clear to me as: Robin the Frog, Kermit, Bunsen Honeydew, and Beaker.

Oh my god, thank you! It would never have occurred to me that that could be the reason for this.

What an oversight.

A reminder to all that the M stands for Master.

(Yes, I know it's used in the "mastery" sense, but just roll with the analogy!)
