@jjLitke Someone else might have told you this already, but there are other ActivityPub implementations (Pleroma, Misskey, etc.) and most of them include the features you want. Mastodon is not the Fediverse. If anything, it's its least interesting part.

@lohang@social.alochana.net If it helps, I received all the messages in this thread.

Last time I checked, Epicyon's AP implementation seemed simpler than others. Maybe recent versions of Mastodon stopped federating with implementations that lack some particular feature?

That said, given that you get along with everybody in the Fediverse, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of having been found guilty by association by some idiot.

@lore Except for the lack of editors and IDEs, most 80s computers were easier to program in. You were even encouraged to do so. The whole ecosystem (not just the computers themselves, but also books, courses or magazines) was based on giving users more than a passing knowledge of how their machine worked, both software, including assembly, and hardware.

Nowadays, something as trivial as installing an app from a different store is frowned upon by the manufacturers. Apple pioneered that.

@lore Years ago, when I did a bit of sysadmin, I read that `PermitRootLogin` should be set to `no` because it was safer to just use sudo once inside. I don't know if that's actually true, but I remember thinking back then that the arguments given (which I forgot) made sense.

@sim They're all part of the system, and I've never met anyone who, being part of the system, was also poor.

Besides, who works an honest job and still has time to spend online bothering people?

@lore You can just add the new port to your ~/.ssh/config file and forget about it. That's what I do.

@cr0n0s En Twiiter tenía un sistema que me funcionaba muy bien: creaba listas temáticas y metía allí cuentas que me interesaban. Si al cabo de un tiempo prudencial seguían siendo interesantes, las seguía. Aquí no puedo hacer eso. O sigo a una cuenta en el momento, o puede que no la vuelva a ver en mi TL y me olvide de ella.

@cr0n0s A veces una persona dice algo que te llama la atención, le sigues porque piensas que puede ser interesante y al cabo de un tiempo te das cuenta de que te habías equivocado. Es algo normal. A mí me pasa mucho.

@tsugumi I know it's supposed to be her head, but the hair flowing behind her legs in the manga looks like a tail and I can't unsee that.

@estrellascompartidas De nada. Lo que importa es el vídeo y está guay.

@estrellascompartidas ¿“Unboxig”?

@ink8@the9thcircle.club Sorry, that was wrong. i meant $2^{bullshit}$.

@ink8@the9thcircle.club If I'm not mistaken, the latter represents one thousand million bytes, and the former 1024 MiB, or something like that. But I don't use -iB-style units. I don't like them. To me, a G is $10^9$ whatever, and a Gi is $2^bullshit$.

@orekix I did, but I found it to be one of the most unfunny shows ever.

Just so you know, the k in kilo- (as in kW, km or kB) MUST always be lowercase. Also, B should be uppercase when it stands for byte, but lowercase when it stands for bit.

Additionally, units derived from someone's name (i.e., ohm, watt, newton, hertz) use an uppercase abbreviation (i.e., Ω, W, N, Hz), while the rest use lowercase letters (i.e., l, m, g).

No, I'm not autistic, but picky with certain things.
