@TBbrigden The key is not sleeping :)
@burkhold Yes i see this
@matrix Yeaaaa... researching how hard your dick gets when you look at anime :)
@alecui yes latex right now isnt usable, we already have that fixed in the source and will be resolved in the next release.
QOTO is a stem instance int he sense that we require people who join be either STEM professionals or at least enthusiasts. So if that is a fitting description then your friend is welcome.
That said we do not require the topics discussed here be only STEM.. We are a general instance in the sense that you can talk about almost anything you want here.
Naturally being a bunch of nerds many of the topics you list are very common topics here.
Thanks, latex is a bit buggy right now but I plan to address that soon in the next release.
We spent a lot of time adding a lot of extras, seems a lot of people appreciate it.
This explains most of it and links to the source.
They are unnlikely to get merged into mainstream mastodon. Many of the features were proposed and rejected by the maintainer of vanilla which is why we ultimately forked our own.
Now that I have the opportunity, let me #introduce our quality-diversity #compchem algorithm to Mastadon. It's based on @janhjensen 's generative algorithm. We avoid stagnation issues, and illuminates opportunities across chemical space, and outperforms #deeplearning approaches!

@nicklightbody Im surprised no one asked me if i support Trump or republicans... Maybe im a raging trumpeter too :) (hint: Im not :) )
@pwinn Seems like it is the push they needed :)
@MilesCranmer Ahh yes i misunderstood. I thought you meant the red was right wing servers and blue were left wing servers and they blocked each other or something.
@TBbrigden Actually I am the founder of this server and I am actually working on TB (and other diseases) right now. We work with TB cultures in our lab too.
Not sure if there are any #TB folk here yet but if so "hi"👋 Looking for #TB, #Globalhealth accounts to follow/like or whatever the term is here! Please share recommendations
@mucida The current model can support twitter level use cases just fine. The key is making sure you use servers that have available resources annd not everyone piling onto one server. QOTO has had no trouble operating with the influx.
@MilesCranmer Why in the wqorld would my server be on the red side... our user base leans blue more than red, and we are one of few instances that doesnt take sides in general.
@magicaltrout We do have ways you can donate, and i can set you up with some of them. But we are very well funded from my own pocket and ive invested enough in the QOTO bank account to ensure we operate for years.
Holy hell the twitter exodus is **still** accelerating. The influx of new users is up about 33% from yesterday, our biggest day so far. We are now seeing over 1,300 new users every day on QOTO!
@cody_is_typing Ahh yes you are working with a "buggy" client that doesnt honnor an instances text cap.. we have a 65K character cap here.
