@davep You say "one true colour" as if there are any other colours...

@xtaldave Is it draconian, fascist and or utterly fucking stupid? Is so, Mogg will have cheer-led it.

@xtaldave Reading the haunted pencil's words, the lede should read "admits" rather than "criticises".

If language models were really trained using Stack Overflow, most responses to “write me some code” would tell you to fuck off and ask a proper question.

Or just tell you fuck off.

@davep I'm fine with blocking/ignoring accounts that I can't be arsed with, but seems the "don't show a toot" weapons are limited to either "be annoyed by saying it exists even if you don't want to see it" or "go nuclear".

@davep Not seen any IceCubes filtering options, despite looking.

There is an option to "drop" filtered toots, but I don't like that kind of unrecoverable destructive behaviour—I would rather it was just hidden completely from the feed entirely, and unhidden should I later decide to rescind the filter. I don't need to know each toot was "Filtered", or at least show a single "Filtered (#{count} toots)" entry.

@davep Yeah, it doesn't quite work in practice, though, and filters don't seem to be applied to app feeds at all.

Now that $BadlyNamedSongContest is over, I think I can happily look at social media again. 🙃

@xtaldave It’s like they’re slowly changing their name to fulfil their density.

UK peeps: consider signing this government petition (to halt passage of the Online Safety Bill, which will gut end-to-end encryption including your online banking security, personal message privacy, and right to privacy in general): petition.parliament.uk/petitio

Now someone is annoyed now because “you got rid of my garden snacks”*…

@clacksee That’s a hell of a way to find out you were adopted.
