@QOTO this is my third test message
@freemo I gave it a couple tries.[1][2] It doesn't seem to have come through on either a circle or a direct message. Is this the intended behaviour? It seems to kind of defeat the purpose if I can't message a group without also messaging all my followers.

@freemo @hansw Thanks! Now if only we could get an "inherit audience" option for replies, which retrieves the audience of the parent comment and bakes *that* in as the audience for the reply ;)
Right now followers-only is kind of crappy because if you make a followers-only post, by default my reply will be followers-only. So people who follow you but not me, or me but not you, get a fragmented conversation view.

Rendering is broken for me since the update. Here's what that looks like on my end.
@freemo It's animated without any further action on my part, on both the web frontend under PM28 and Tusky.

Ahh I see. "Trying" is a bit strong - I just didn't think to change the default.
After setting it to plain text: \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)
@freemo @design_RG @rgx@muensterland.social
Nope. I typed the backslashes; they just got stripped out somewhere along the line.
Trying again. \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)
@design_RG @freemo @rgx@muensterland.social
There's also a whole mess of CSP errors in the console related to MathJax.
Testing the LaTeX markup: \(\frac{dy}{dx}\)

I'm seeing the same as Rob wrt bulleted lists and block quotes. Browser is Pale Moon 28.14.0 Linux.
In addition, if I use the quote button, the quoted toot appears above the compose window in a green theme that's quite difficult to read.
@2ck We did C for about five weeks, then the language became C++ with some university-specific extensions that made it more like the contract/specification programming model you get in Ada. Basically C was just introduced to show us how lucky we were to work in a language that takes care of those details for us.
@sgryphon Every user has a public RSS feed. "Subscribe" parses that feed and imports it into your timeline. "Follow" fetches the posts using the ActivityPub protocol instead.
If you subscribe to someone, it's invisible to everyone except you:
you will NOT see his follower-only posts
it will NOT increase his follower count or your follow count
he will NOT have to approve your request if his account is private.
A little while ago, QOTO was having a technical issue where following people on other instances was silently failing. Subscribing was handy in that circumstance for those who didn''t care about missing followers-only posts.
@Sphinx very true!

@digital_carver some of the guys from the late nineteenth century were super forgettable; I can't believe Taft is less famous than they are.
@digital_carver wait, what? Taft is pretty well-known for not really wanting to be president, but taking the job until he could be appointed Chief Justice. Plus he had an important role in the story of Teddy Roosevelt, who's even better known.
And then there's the reason all the schoolkids remember him: being so fat as to get stuck in the White House bathtub.
Looks like a goldfinch. The juveniles and females are more muted than the yellow males.
@realcaseyrollins in my world that's Java Runtime Environment. Somehow I don't feel that's what you were going for ;)
@freemo I'm pleased to say that my IRL friend @Peyman_majidi has just joined QOTO. I recommended he check out our instance on the basis of his engineering background and interest in data science.
@Peyman_majidi I hope you have great conversations here - in particular with @freemo, the administrator of the site as well as a data scientist himself. Welcome!
