the default mastodon 500 character limit gives me posting anxiety, really need to fix this as soon as possible

Blackout was amazing. Really wonder why I never went to any DnB events before even though I listen it 24/7...

meta, gab, fedilab 

not gunna lie, pretty disappointed to see "we're not taking sides we just dont want to get kicked off the play store this has nothing to do with gab the instance" used as the excuse to block gab as opposed to "it's a platform for bigots, by bigots." like yeah it's the right decision which is good and all but it's a pretty cowardly way to make it.

sapiosexual jokes are annoying 

so, basically: make fun of the concept of sapio, sure, but

also spread information about orientations that should be more well-known, but are considered too niche, such as gray-a, ply, toren, trixen, viramoric, feminamoric

also criticize allosexist garbage; don't stop your allyship to a-spec people at the occasional "aromantic and asexual people exist and belong"

make people who hate ~weird orientations~ feel unsafe and unwanted on the Fediverse

sapiosexual jokes are annoying 

yes, sapiosexual is an ableist concept and you should probably look into noetisexual, kairosexual, demisexual or graysexual if you legitimately feel that way

however:

1. the structure of the jokes is way too similar to how people discredit a-spec orientations: "being demi is just normal/slut shaming/not fucking strangers", "being fray is just wanting to fuck with no consequences", "being asexual is just virgin/incel pride" (all of these are obviously wrong btw)

after this sysadmin success, it's time to go to a dnb party tonight

yay got the pixie.town Matrix<>Telegram bridge set up :)

Neo has been migrated to the new domain as well
New room at :pixie.town
Site at neo.pixie.town
Neo at neo.pixie.town/app

Git will be migrated once git.pixie.town is up soon(tm)

@gnusocialgnu WriteFreely is more stable than Plume, since it's further in development, it also has features like custom css
Plume is really quite alpha which can give issues

Neo is my matrix client project, because I'm not satisfied with the other ones. It aims to be lightweight, and similar in UI to Telegram

@dirb @starwall @tom79 @brainblasted Any software developer includes constraints within their applications. In this case a hardcoded blocklist of known neo-nazi instances would be a reasonable constraint and the user could remove that and recompile if they wanted to.

Associating with nazis or other kinds of genocidal authoritarians doesn't increase or preserve anyone's freedom. Rather, it jeopardizes it.

oof having to resort to the federated timeline scrounging to find the people i used to follow

Very very interesting read: stopthemingmy.app/

"We are developers and designers making apps for the GNOME platform. We take pride in our craft and work hard to make sure our applications are a great experience for people.

Unfortunately, all our efforts designing, developing, and testing our apps are made futile by theming in many cases."

hmm apparently I never exported my follows rip so guess here's my post

I'm a programmer and sometime sysadmin, I run pixie.town where I provide free software services for comfy ppl to use.

My main project is a client called Neo which you can find at neo.lain.haus
I also play and when I have the time

Some blurb of tags:

Matrix is really having a struggle, after migrating my account to 45 rooms it's getting absolutely hammered

I'm back fediverse woop woop!
lain.haus / cyberia.social had a tragic accident, but it was time to move on anyways.
