I'm interested in being just not civil, but excellent in interacting with others of different viewpoints in an online world where we can so viciously defend our echo chambers and be so dismissive of other perspectives.
Because this is less and less possible here, I'm largely offline and am not sure if I'll be returning. It was fun back when civility was a trend on qoto.

"If you're so desperate, madam, we can offer you MAID, medical in dying."
A 52-year-old retired corporal Christine Gauthier, who competed in the 2016 Paralympics, had asked for a wheelchair lift to be installed in her home.
I used to say that it seemed the #Canadian socialized Healthcare system killed my grandmother, by putting her on a treatment wait list longer than her life expectancy when she has cancer after retirement... Felt at least from a distance like: treatment costs more than projected personal tax revenue? You don't get treatment. Just die. The system lowered overall costs by refusing treatment.
Saying this today is hardly shocking when the system in #Canada now just openly offers to kill patients when they ask for Healthcare.

The one thing people love most about QOTO it is our friendly nature where we treat people like a friend at a coffee shop, not an enemy to debate.. lets hope the #UFoI can bring that feeling to the wider fediverse.

Today I have a #salesforce code sample. From #Salesforce. It errors out. 🤦
Anyone out there successfully used #LWC to override embedded chat pre chat form? SF has a nice code sample to do this, but it has an uncaufht js error when the user clicks to start the chat.
👀 That's two #Salesforce CEOs out in one day.

Hi everyone. I just got signed up here, though I'm on other instances. As an #introduction I'll paste my bio. I'm a 47 year old #blind woman living in #STL with my spouse and our two cats. I work as a #Salesforce admin for a small nonprofit that helps train and place #disabled people in #tech jobs. I'm #christian and love #music, #animals, and technology of course. Please add descriptions to #images so I and other #ScreenReader users can enjoy them. Oh, I'm also a twitter refugee, so to speak.

#CellTower 29 was a hard one. Took me revisiting over hours today. Three options for one letter, i only had considered two until just now. 🤦
my method is to not commit a first word until I think I've figured out the whole thing. takes a lot of staring at the screen, but the results look nice.

I’m sorry, but why would you leave Twitter and head straight to another “walled garden”? Be free!
Always good to see a famous #quote posted. This one at a door at a hotel.
This was... Aristotle?

Theology 101: It takes great faith to trust God to calm the storm; it takes greater faith to keep trusting him when he doesn't.

I tried Tusky again after seeing it mentioned as a favorite. For all it's flaws, I'm back within minutes to Subway Tooter. Yeah, it's a really weird name. and it's got some issues.
Here's why I keep going back to it and I wonder if there's others that can do this:
IT KEEPS MULTIPLE TABS OPEN. with the #TwitterMigration, I'm relying more on tags (to find new users) and lists (to find those I follow and have categorized)... and with subway tooter I'm able to swipe through each of these views easily.
My open tabs are..
- My Feed
- My Notifications
- a few topics/tags I'm monitoring for new interesting people to follow and may add to my lists
- a few lists for very different categories... geographically local, professional interest, faith interest.
Tusky looks like a streamlined interface where I can choose to search those topics or open those lists to switch to that view, but doesn't let them just stay open.

But, if we don’t have Twitter, how will we know what to be angry about each day???

In many senses, I find #qoto sets high standards for communication in #fediverse. You have enabled connected services, allowed 65K characters, you have robust policy, we can use markdown in posts, and you are also very welcoming, responsive, and open community!
