weh the health of the fediverse, weh the network, weh

when did some nebulous concept of network health become more important than the safety of its inhabitants? honestly, what the fuck

Made a ‘good first issue’ on Github for disabling the markdown fraction parsing in GoToSocial: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1028

If anyone wants to spend an hour or so tweaking that and writing some tests, that would be very cool ;)

thanks @mirabilos

during one of the earlier waves of migration someone who had recently signed up posted something along the lines of "when you first arrive it's all very confusing and offputting but by the end of the day you're banging your fists on the table shouting TRAIN FUCKERS TRAIN FUCKERS TRAIN FUCKERS"

Hey #introduction , my name is Denman Rooke, I'm an illustrator, art director, and concept artist working in games. I've been working professionally since 2007 and live in Galway, Ireland.

I've done work for Magic the Gathering, D&D, and Pathfinder RPG to name a few (with a small contribution of mine in the behind the scenes of the Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug). I am currently working full-time as an Associate Art Director at Sumo Digital.

Here's a few recent pieces of mine.

It's great when people who are sick test for #SARSCoV2. But when they tell you not to worry because they tested negative: I don't want that other virus either!!! If you are sick with a respiratory illness: Stay at home & get some rest (for you and for others)

Because a few people have tried this already:

Please DO NOT try to replace another fedi instance with a GoToSocial deployment on the same domain, with the same username. This will almost certainly cause issues with federation due to public/private keys changing, and it is not something we support.

In the future, we’ll try to provide a proper migration path between GtS and other fedi servers. But in the meantime we recommend deploying GtS at a subdomain that hasn’t been in use yet, like fedi.[example.org] or social.[example.org].

Your enthusiasm about GtS is appreciated! But if you try to drop-in GtS in place of a preexisting fedi server, and things break, we will not be able to help you with them.

We’re super excited and grateful you’re all talking about us and recommend us to your friends, it’s super cool.

Important note: we’re still in ALPHA.
We have the bare basics. That’s it. Everything else will come, but it will take time!

The best way to contribute right now, so we can pay additional people on our dev team for their amazing work, is by contributing on Open Collective:
