@Sphinx Good morning, and that's an excellent quote. Abby Hoffmann, I believe ?
@achso@mastodon.social
They are certainly a nest of resentment and negativity, in my opinion. I ws quite comforted by seeing the stats on Fediverse.network and them confirming it's mostly contained within their own communities.
But still a negative thing. Well, life goes on.
Our fellow system administrator cut communications with a request that I no longer contact him, and I will honour that of course.
Felt like deleting my account there at mastodon.technology, but looking at the few posts I had, mostly blog annoucements for content I feel it's worthy, deciced to leave it there.
Posted a note in the profile saying I would no longer be participating in their instance, repeated that in a quick Local feed post and logged off. Good bye, M.T.
Those ex-Twitter, heavy past users now in admin positions here in some instances are sure a weird bunch. I will leave them to their one liners, cryptic thingies, and will go on to greener pastures.

@peterdrake Ah, I understand - you meant a desire for larger fonts in general, or the option to use them if needed. I see, and that is a nice idea.
I just joined another instance yesterday and was very surprised by the many advanced features it has. It's a Pleroma node, which is similar to Mastodon but created by a separate team, and has many enhancements.
One of them being a very granular palette of user controls- amazing. Not only individual colors control for each element, if desired, by a choice of font family, size, and even a specific font, by name. Wow.
I think he's being cautious since we might have come across some weird places on ocassion. Not yours, but some odd nodes here and there.
Turns out I was missing on a great thing, but it was probably ok - now that I understand mastodon better, it's easier to grasp and compare. And Pleroma is suprisingly refreshing and cool.
@realcaseyrollins@mstdn.social
@realcaseyrollins@mstdn.social Yes, it's true, it does take time to keep in touch in more places.
Enjoy the movie, Casey. Bedtime soon for me. Good night!
[I thought of mentioning -- if you even setup a private node, Pleroma looks like an enjoyable one. People told me there's excellent manuals and you can complete all of it in one weekend]
@greamj Hello, welcome.
We are an instance in the Mastodon network with a STEM - Science, Tech, Engineering, Math theme.
Showing nudes here is not really along the lines we hope to maintain.
You can read more about what rules we have here : https://qoto.org/about/more/
Thank you!
Today I discovered and joined a new instance. Amazing how we cross paths and discover things at random points. Serendipity, is a Thing.
This instance is called Expired Mentality, RIP.
Source of the name? I will quote :
" yep, thanks to hysterical Gab dev for this name. https://youtu.be/TveK9Sfwtvo?t=96 "
LOL.... 😜

@SecondJon George Orwell had a vision, and it ain't pretty. We are living it now it seems. [shades of 1984, the novel]
@hj
Most certainly! It's interesting that you have this dual team approach. Interesting, keeping people focused on what they know best. 👍
Thank you PleromaBE development team, I am impressed.
@smonky Yes, that is an amazing thing, I do that many times for that very reason. Thanks Smonky!
