good to know, but it speaks a lot about their priorities that neither was there on launch, imo.

it’s the title of a YMO song!
aww, i love this site! but i also can’t find the pin i know i put there when i found the site anymore- i wonder if they removed it. oh well
same. i’m still an introverted awkward autistic weirdo and i’ve had just as much trouble making friends living in a city as anywhere else. but one of the things i like about living here is that even though i’m basically always alone, i’m also always around other people. it’s nice imo
i feel this too, i tried using searx for a while and found it really nice but frequently down or broken :/ i’ll try some of the instances suggested here.
i think this ties back to the idea that suffering is noble and enlightening, somehow. the flip side of that is the idea that nothing important or meaningful can be conveyed through happiness. i don’t think that’s true, but i guess a lot of people do.
Kev Quirk, one of the admins of Fosstodon (a Mastodon instance), destroys Meta in an email exchange.
i haven’t seen any hard confirmation, but i believe one of these mastodon admin meetings has already happened (the one attended by the universeodon admin) and an nda was involved. this would be the second meeting.
as a longtime mastodon user, tech articles about the fediverse are often very confused and under researched. it’s like tech reporters take one look at the websites and their brains shut off- if they ever even looked at them to begin with.
i was a social drinker, but had to stop when i went on psych meds. i’m off them now but i never started drinking again. it definitely is a little awkward in social situations, but also, i realized i just never really liked the taste of most drinks or how being drunk felt, honestly. i was just doing it bc i felt peer pressured to.
i also absolutely feel this way, but i think more people like ~the algorithms~ than people like us suspect. you have no idea how many new people i’ve seen complain about this on mastodon. people show up, see a blank feed that they have to make an effort to populate, and turn around and leave. i think a lot of people enjoy frictionless spoonfed content a la the tiktok for you page these days…
