@realcaseyrollins of course! I just wanted to advertise the option since it'll be the last game of the season.

@realcaseyrollins in case you're still interested in the USports version, the Vanier Cup (nat'l championship) is tied at 17 heading into the 3rd:

@acjay You could maybe jury-rig something like this in mastodon if you have a cooperative admin. As a sketch of the solution:

You set up webfinger on acjay.com to forward to QOTO. The admin here adds acjay.com to ALTERNATE_DOMAINS in the config.

Then if you mention @acjay@acjay.com it should redirect to your account, but I don't think you'd be able to make your outgoing toots appear as if they were from that domain.

When you want to take your identity elsewhere, you point acjay.com's webfinger at the new site.

If you try this, let me know how it works!

@RL_Dane I just hide boosts; generally that does the trick. It only applies to timelines, not profile view, but I rarely use profile view anyway.

It helps deal with the problem that people have wildly different thresholds for "interesting enough to boost" and keeps my home timeline down to a manageable flow of content.

@realcaseyrollins It also has several nice widgets for your homescreen with a few options for customisation.

@freemo generally okay. I'd cut the bit about anti-cisgender/anti-straight, because that's going to be a lightning rod - the people who are already looking for an excuse to block will cry foul because you're "punching down" against marginalised groups, and the free speech ideologues will complain about you declaring *anything* off limits, so the less expansive this section, the better.

I strongly approve the change to academic freedom rather than free speech, given the current trend for a free speech to degenerate into 4chan

@freemo I'll see what I can dig up. It's getting on toward night here, so probably going to tackle this in the morning.

@freemo if it's an actual URL and not an IPv4 address, there's a good chance I'll catch it this week when I tackle the SEO linkstuffers

@freemo I've been working on that today. I ran some scans, but nobody has a raw IPv4 address in their profile, that I can find with a regex at least. I suspect it's obfuscated in some way.

@freemo Take it easy for a few days then my man! You have safe hands in Trinsec (and in me too, I shall endeavour to prove) to leave the site in for a bit while you catch your breath, so to speak.

If you have the opportunity for a road trip, there's the [Bahá'í Gardens](https://ganbahai.org.il/) in the north of the country which are quite peaceful and might be a help to your frame of mind. Please do take care of yourself.

@freemo I plan to take care of most of the outstanding reports, and I should have time to catch up on the spammer deletion (interestingly, as Twitter migrants have increased, spammers have decreased in both relative and absolute terms). I don't really know what other loads you're shouldering at the moment but you might have better ideas than I for how to help - if there's a specific way I can, please don't hesitate to let me know.

I look forward to seeing your proposed changes but I think you already have done quite a good job on the instance policies!

@freemo Hey man I'm going to have a lot of bandwidth to deal with routine mod stuff the next few days. If you need me to focus on anything in particular just point me in the right direction. Hope you start feeling a bit more upbeat and feel free to reach out anytime!

@kefir I see you're on Tusky, which is in the same family tree as the app I use, so maybe you'll find it in the same place: near the top right corner of the compose screen. As @trinsec said, it'll have to wait until the upgrade to show up in the web client.

@doubledodge LaTeX is currently not working here due to a CSP error. Sounds like it'll be fixed in our next update. If your browser supports disabling CSP, you can fix the problem that way (although you should first be aware of the risks) in the meantime.

@realcaseyrollins Turns out today's semifinal games are also on CBC, and not geofenced.

Interesting thread by @markmccaughrean concerning upcoming changes to leap seconds

@lucifargundam Hi! I've seen you around but it's nice to hear from you. Thanks for being a part of our community!

@kefir Re: yesterday's discussion, does the above solution work for you?

@trinsec

@lapingvino thanks!
