@bram sorta surprised yesterday the NS lost and found form has male, female and 'not relevant'

adhd meds ~ 

definitely starting to notice how meds affect my creativity. I can work/concentrate on a project a lot better but design decisions are much harder?

but now you can search FediFox Shield rendered/proxied profiles and statuses properly again glitch-dev.pixie.town/@alice

turns out it was sort of my fault, reverse proxy not setting the original Host header, so FediFox proxied it to Mastodon with the FediFox shield listen ip as the Host

seems mastodon adds alternate_domains to the exception lists

which doesn't actually make any sense, because this is about the *ip that connects to the server* not the one the server is accessed as

yay, ran into another shitty Mastodon connection protection thing with no clear to disable/add exceptions
(HostAuthorization, it's a ruby/puma thing apparently)

re: FediBlock c.im 

@host @gingerrroot @admin mas.to and mastodon.scot seem to have the same admin (trumpet) and ko-fi, but I don't see any (public) link to c.im other than that c.im says to have forked the mas.to rules

Some more context: FediFox Shield handles all pages on your instance that are *public* and *unauthenticated*.

Most importantly that's local users' profiles, and threads.

I have some ideas about what can be done differently from Mastodon (both the 3.x and 4.x interfaces), keywords would be *configurability* and *consent*.

What do you want the public to see about your account, what do you not?

:boosts_ok_gay:​ I'm looking for feedback on opt-in/opt-out functionality for FediFox Shield, my alternative Mastodon (api compatible) static frontend.

Due to technical limitations, users can fully opt-out of having any of their posts shown anywhere by blocking the user the shield server logs in as.

Another thing I want to make configurable for users is (not) showing their unlisted posts.

Any other thoughts?

@gingerrroot it is Not Cute Behavior and Fucks Up People's Timelines
You Rude People

for the millionth time

stop misspelling or making fake names for people so folks can actually filter out your posts

social~ 

so much social stuff this week between christmas/friends/new years, it's been lots of fun but im also looking forward to next week where I have nothing at all

Whoever got mad about people using the term ‘mutual aid’ because they think ‘mutual’ means it needs to be an exact 1-1 transaction missed the point entirely. It doesn’t even need to be about semantics, the point of mutual aid is building up a community in which people can ask for help, and if you don’t need help right now, great! But if/when you do, you have this community you can go to for help. That’s where the ‘mutual’ part comes in

@trysdyn it's less problematic because there are no deadlines attached I think, so we can slowly triage and work through them as wanted
