The fandom is currently having a crisis over and his shameless thirst posts on Instagram. It is a treat to see Gen Z losing their minds over a man old enough to be their grandpa. I'm merely a bystander to my friends' ongoing drain circling. instagram.com/p/Ckzk4YGJyS1/

I'm not a man, so :blobcatshrug: There's a lot of folks I adore and that are intelligent over on the birb that have wildly incorrect opinions on how it works here. I do science outreach and some of the scientists that I desperately want over here just can't see past certain issues. Anyhow. YMMV.

I am hoping the guys who do my seedbox will also do so as they have promised to start doing other apps.

Whoever came up with the siloing argument doesn't remember what it was like being a brand new user on Twitter.

My parents have shuffled off this mortal coil but I always think about this because the 50s, etc always seemed pretty far back when I was a kid in the 80s etc. I'm convinced they at least felt like adults at some point though. I still don't at 47.

50,000 University of California system academic workers are preparing to strike on Monday, November 14th! They deserve fair work and compensation.

@freemo
That's fair. I'm way too used to admin being uninvolved and that's something I need to get used to not being the case. I seriously appreciate your explanation and time.

It's been years upon years that I've had any involvement in anything other than a Discord or Slack channel (which just isn't the same) that has had anything like a reachable admin. That's back to BBS and MUD days. So I'll definitely do better. I apologize for being a dick.

@freemo @trinsec Thanks for the handholding. I try my best, even with the dumb posting I do, to avoid that kind of mess. It would be fantastic to understand how that got all started. Like what is up with their mod teams.

This entire thing started due to a friend being on a server who blocks qoto. There's no big white paper really, about this stuff. I've read all your org docs when I joined, but this is beyond that.

Aleksandr Dugin's letter is full of blame and calls for Putin's overthrow and death. Unsurprising, truly.

You've got to understand that for a new user to see your instance listed multiple times for reasons like federating with gab/kiwifarms, and that the instance you're on has privacy / CoC breaking protocols is not confidence instilling. We're on 126 block lists, which again, to a new user, seems a lot.

60 a month is absurd, the traffic / storage just doesn't rate that, I don't think. I have my Google drive full of shit that's been going since 2015 and it's only got like 60 gigs of stuff on it and that's EVERY photo at full res off all my phones.

@artcollisions you You know what would be great? If you could make it so subsequent replies inherited privacy settings. It is really hard sometimes to just post in the moment here which, I get that this is isn't the birb, but it will really affect things like post-alongs.

Mastodon! I sometimes watch films, or even entire catalogs of films from a single actor, and post along while I watch. How would be the best way to do that here. In a reply to myself thread with CWs?
