You not just want to open https URLS but also follow a #Gemini link, somebody posted in a toot?
Simply add this snippet to your $HOME/.config/tut/config.ini in the [open-pattern] section or create it if it doesn't exist yet.
(Amfora is the name of the TUI application to display gemini pages. Replace it with your preferred gemini client or use #amfora, it's great 😉)

To expose Eiugen on yet another lie... here is a link to all the changes that occured to our ToC over the last 6 months. As can clearly be seen the only changes made were stronger protections for the LGBTQ and a removal of the phrase "free speech".

Which means the only perceived changes he could mean are either greater protections to LGBTQ groups or he is caving tto the misinformation spread by snow.

I already cover the emails (which were sent only to admins with email addresses that welcomed administrative contact). They servered the purpose of alerting them as to Snow's disinformation and an attempt to set the record straight.

Seems quite clear, even by Eugen's own admission that what I said in the above post is completely factual afterall.

Due to recent events, a lot of people are joining the Mastodon™ Network™ leading to a lot of discussions that may get overwhelming at times.

Thankfully, Mastodon™ has a solution to hide specific topics: word filters.

First, open the settings in the sidebar of your genuine Mastodon™ instance. Then scroll down until you see the item "word mutes".
Here you can add topics you don't want to see in your timeline. Feel free to copy the topics from our screenshot for some reasonable defaults!

This is, precisely, the main point of having those tools: to let the users decide whether they want to see or not content from other accounts/servers, even muting whole instances with one click.

bot, spam 

well this is a fairly suspicious bot profile. It liked my post, I reported it. #fediAdmin

admin stuff 

Some people just don't want to be found too easily.
#fediblock ed fedisearch.skorpil.cz, yet another customised crawler that adds our users to his search engine without prior consent, even when they opted out of indexing or had #nobot on the bio. He seems like a nice dude who means we'll, and he did fix most of this stuff already, but after 2 days there are still problems.

I've had it with profile search engines that don't respect the need for obscurity, with no opt-in policy.

'More than 1.3mn people in China were under medical observation this week as close contacts of cases of Covid-19, the highest level since the pandemic erupted out of Wuhan, and an increase of more than 300,000 in just a few days.

The soaring number of close contacts, driven by a rise in cases to near record levels, is putting immense strain on a Covid-19 policy that in contrast with the rest of the world aims to eliminate rather than live with the virus.'
