I don’t know who decided that posts here should be called “toots” but they certainly did not consult Americans!
@juliesullivan wahhhh 👶😭 everything must confirm to my American liberal worldview
@juliesullivan People have spent years writing the software to make an anticensorship social media platform after blue checkmarks like you have been cheering it on msm platforms and you show absolutely no respect to the platform after the same happens to you. Yeah it's sad. Hope you enjoy the smell of my toots
@ercadio I’m not a blue checkmark. I’m a translator and it seems like a very basic thing to verify what words mean before you make them system-wide. No disrespect to the software engineers.
I have no idea why you’re picking a fight with a Mastodon newcomer about a humorous post. Try to be pleasant.
@ercadio “conform”
Choosing the wrong word without verifying it with users was unwise. Nothing to do with being “liberal” or “American.”
@juliesullivan Not sure why I should even give an ounce of respect to English since Americans have decided to add X's to other languages they can't even speak
@ercadio I speak six, how about you?
@ercadio Straw man
