Public Service Announcement -- for Non-Cat Lovers

A gentle reminder that although cats are tremendously popular in the Fediverse (and all over the internet), I do recognize there's people who don't enjoy to see batches of feline photos coming from some users (me, others).

Fear not, dear Reader -- I have prepared a nice and detailed Guide to Filter out all those Posts of Cats I make.

See it right at the Top of my profile - or via this link :

A little bit of work in the Preferences panel and all those pesky posts will not show for you anymore.

And the same skill applies to all kinds of other annoyances. Suggested tags ?

A real event -- the huge spike in load on the server of a company, when some inane Tweet brings the multitudes wanting to sign up for service, NOW. Gimme, Now.

Happened, at Easter, and they had to take things offline, brutal load. The tweet in question, baffling how it can bring on such an onslaught. (included in post below)

Rollo has lost weight but he's gained the most magnificent white whisker (singular)!

* Community Building and Leadership - Ideas *

We are always looking for Talent.

A transcription of a Long Form Toot - qoto.org/@design_RG/1043426769 earlier this morning, fully composed on the fly, in my toot Editor at a Mastodon instance.

Lightly edited for Blog publishing, adding links and references only, content was ready. The views in the post are my own, I believe they reflect values which make instances vibrant and pleasant places to be in.

Staff at Qoto.org are always scouting for new Talent, and open to suggestions, comments.

Adding new Staff members is good for all communities -- it's a labour of love, we do it for the fun, the pleasure of seeing things growing up, a nice social climate growing.

I would like to invite any Active user at Qoto (*or in the Fediverse at large, if you decided to join us*) to consider if they would like to help.

That is the Topic of today's Blog -- write.tedomum.net/rgx/communit

OP : muensterland.social/@rgx/10434

@design_RG @rgx @joaopinheiro I run several GlitchSoc instances to choose from: muensterland.social , mstdn.es , mastodon.bayern , social.dev-wiki.de (Part of GGC Project,I'm part of the admin team), toot.koeln (I'm only the server admin,not the owner).All of them allow 5000 chars per post because this 500 chars limit is nonsense.You can't have any detailed discussions with only 500 chars.There are already workarounds,meaning threads with many short post answering to each other,but why?!Just set a limit that allows real discussions and there's no need for workarounds anymore.Migrating to GlitchSoc is very easy: glitch-soc.github.io/docs/ and you can raise your limit by simply adding MAX_TOOT_CHARS=5000 to your .env.production.

I love @pinafore. It has a simple and uncluttered UI, it is *absurdly* fast, and yet it retains all the main features of Mastodon. Also, the golden standard for webapps: it does not break the back button in the browser. What a beautiful piece of software you created here, @nolan, thank you!

For my first post today, I want to send a bouquet to Nolan, the developer of the Pinafore web app for Mastodon and Pleroma. Thanks for creating such a brilliant freedom-respecting UX!
