A while ago I was inspired to try my hand at a more "explorable" periodic table online, in a new (to me) coding framework (sveltejs). I was slowed down by my embarrassing ignorance of chemistry. Any chemists have opinions on how to make a periodic table fun to explore? I was dreaming about drag and drop interactions...

@freemo I thought it was really cool to find your post through Reddit. Thanks for bringing attention to this.
So someone just brought to my attention just now that the post I made that was boosted more than 300 times was also shared by different people across about 10 different posts in 10 different subreddits, that's in addition to the dozens of web pages that linked it, and as you all already know reaching the #1 spot on hacker news as well.
I know you are all getting sick of me mentioning it, but I am just blown away but just how much that one post has been linked and spread across the internet. Its literally everywhere.
It was also picked up here: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/blog/google-is-removing-fediverse-apps-from-the-play-store-because-they-can-be-used-to-access-hate-speech/

Holy crap, google is apparently taking down all/most fediverse apps from google play on the grounds that that some servers in the fediverse engage ...
This is the best year ever!
I got to stay inside all year, work from home. I never had to answer the door when random people knocked up and no one got upset. I didnt need to yell at even a single person invading my personal space when I went out, and cop cars are being burned in the streets by the dozen....
This year has truly been a dream come true!
I shared the post I made on HackerNews that hit #1 on reddit just now. It talks about the Google Play censorship of Fediverse apps. If anyone is interested check out the post, good to get as much exposure as we can about this topic.

Google is taking down some of the Fediverse clients (seems like the ones that dont ban Gab)
a fediverse post about it by @freemo is currently the most discussed thing on the front page of hacker news rn

@freemo Excellent. Lobster will be sure to advance pro-HAM radio agenda, by requiring all operators to have hams available at all times.

@freemo Listen, Lobster is very, very, very, very, VERY, very, VERY important. You should vote for Lobster in 2020.

I have to admit, my ego is slightly inflated (even though i did nothing to earn it really) by the fact that I am the first person in the history of the fediverse to have a post on the front page of #HackerNews

@freemo Thanks, have done part of that, so copied the text then linked to your full post, which has the links to the screenshots, also added my comment at the bottom (made it clear it is my comment) to say the fediverse works in a different way.
The problem is ,lst year Mastodon hit the main news, as lots of people in India moved to the fediverse,
If this story hits the media it will be twisted, journalists will go out and search for this hate content, and say it is easy to find.
To day is that big march in Washington DC. so this could be a convienient time for Google to 'look' like they are doing something.
Interestingly Protonmail are on both Gab and mastodon, which does show that the two are separate networks otherwise there would be less need or they would have to be on ALL the different instance types I guess.
Lets see what happens, we need to remind the world that 18 months ago facebook allowed live streaming of a mass murder terror attack in New Zealand, and also it is still accused of not dealing with child abuse properly.
More ammo Britain first is still trending in the UK, (has been all day) they are a racist hate group.
I wonder if the twitter app will be removed !!!?

A post I made blew up here and on hacker news and I'm getting notifications rolling in on the order of several per minute. I probably just didnt notice.
