Context: my kid is mildly allergic to citric acid and citric fruit. Brings out eczema. And citric acid is in SO many things. And it’s painful checking ingredients lists for it.
This morning I wondered: can my phone OCR the ingredients list and check it?
My first thought was to make a little web app. But there doesn’t seem to be a OCR in web browsers yet.
Now this is interesting. A Fediverse platform developed by Cloudflare that inherently runs on Cloudflare without needing dedicated infrastructure.
The code is open source yet the platform itself is inherently proprietary. It's going to be very interesting how this unfolds given how unpopular Cloudflare is with many Fediverse admins
@Zoe O'Connell says that I need to post something. Here is a dreadful selfie taken in low light with the new @Raspberry_Pi@raspberrypi.social camera module version 3 with no IR filter. Haven't worked out how to do alt text in Friendica.

in reply to Sarah Brown • •I was wondering that for foreign incredible lists in particular, but there are a lot of ways glúten can be listed.
They really need an allergy QR code system. The EU could implement something, but it would take years.
