@ckie Whoops, sorry! Still gotta get used to that... especially considering how rarely I post pictures.

This project has been on my executive dysfunction pile for literally 2 years so, y'know

Whoa. Hang on.

We're not ruled by corporate overlords any more.

That means I can say...

FUCK TERFS

A sincere tip for longtime fediverse people who would like their friends to stick around here longer than a week:

If you're on Mastodon or Hometown, you can click the "bell" icon in the profile of someone you follow. This will make it so that every time they post, it will appear in your notifications like an "@". I am enabling this temporarily for friends so that I remember to interact with them. This is important for making this place feel more lively and helps people stick around!

new people I do promise that outside of new user influxes, we do talk about stuff other than just activitypub design and how twitter is bad, like, uhhh, jorts and meowing

listen, i'm glad everyone is here/back but platform metacommentary alone won't be enough to make this stick. you need to start posting inane nonsense

what did you eat today. did you see any cool bugs

Don't you love it when you do the first 90% of the problem in planning only to find out there's another 90% of the problem left in finding out what the problem actually is and yet another 90% implementing it

@riley@toot.site On a long enough timescale, any set of polycules will asymptotically approach full connectivity

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt Nah, the problem is more *empty* packaging

@DuckForTheDuck Oh, realiseer me net dat dit geloof ik alleen in een specifieke (Tweetdeck-achtige) layout zo werkt, weet niet of dat de standaardlayout is

okay nog een paar vragen rondom mastodon:
1 wat is een beetje de cultuur rondom favourites, 'k zie mensen van twitter elke reply favouriten zoals ze op twitter deden maar mensen die mastodon langer gebruiken schijnen het conservatiever te gebruiken, althans ik zie constant posts met meer boosts dan favourites?

2 hoe te verdelen welke info in bio, metadata en pinned posts te zetten?

3 kan ik dat bloep geluidje van notifs uitzetten (ik zit direct op het webadres van todon.eu, die ik op m'n telefoons home screen heb gezet, en kan het in settings zo gauw niet vinden)

@DuckForTheDuck Van wat ik begrijp is het "iedereen die gevolgd wordt door minstens 1 persoon op jouw instance verschijnt op de federated timeline"

Sure, package management is hard, but have you ever tried *packaging* management with ADHD??
