@Cyborgneticz it's a direct download link, I can also mirror it on my own domain in a sec

@kim just a heads-up kittens are blind+deaf for the first 10 days after birth

@danbruno there's some funny Matrix bots doing that automatically too, like any message containing 'cat' (even as part of a word) got a cat emoji react

I think my favorite use of emoji responses on Slack/Discord/etc is when someone just latches onto a particular word in a message and attaches its emoji, with no semantic content intended. E.g. someone'll say "Sorry, the bus is running late" and someone else will just slap a 🚌 on there to confirm that they did indeed notice and recognize the word "bus"

it's such a tiny detail, but the extra interactivity is great imo

refactoring: like following the hansel and gretel breadcrumb trail, but they where drunk on the way there and the breadcrumbs are caltrops

work stuff 

earlier today I looked at my tracked hours for this refactor branch and thought i was mostly finished in around half the estimated hours

and then right after realized how much there's still to do

fairly happy with the hooks + component setup I wrote for form fields in GoToSocial, especially that they're proven to be extensible to the more complex usecases too. Probably something I should abstract into its own published package at some point, but aaa work

@researchfairy naming things is hard.. but that's no excuse to appropriate something instead

Apache can change its name

So can Ubuntu tbh

The GNU photoshop too, but for different reasons

FOSS names are kind of shit huh

like half of the GoToSocial Settings is just simple form structures that edit and send back a json response

and then there's huge complexity in stuff like bulk import/export with plaintext and json support, and the custom emoji stealing interface
