Happy to share that I have successfully completed the Google Summer of Code 2023 with @libreoffice. I would like to thank Andreas Heinisch (@DrRobotto) and Heiko Tietze for their unwavering support and mentorship throughout the #GSoC '23 program.

@freemo I may have missed it, but since I now see an option to block an entire domain, is this blocking action instance-wide or just for my timeline?

I'm also surprised to see nobody even questioned him, looking at how woefully out of touch he is with reality. US folks, what's happening here? :O

@freemo Just something I noticed, typing out emojis like :smile: or :wink: do not automatically translate on here, unless I tab into it and select the emoji. Expected?
