@kuba I enjoy it. I have mine turned up to 1000 WPM, which is about right for most of my reading. Especially re-reads and things that just need a cursory read.

@writh @freemo oh -- Twitter web app doesn't show that on the stream. Only on the individual past view.

@writh @freemo ah-- maybe I missed that

@writh @freemo However, RT from Mastodon is mentioned, I believe.

@writh @freemo yeah, I was just surprised by. that, too. Seemed to take a few minutes, or maybe I was slow to notice it. It also didn't mention that it was a crosspost on the twitter side, so I had to double check if I wrote it there or here.

@writh I am liking the style and more obviously open-source culture of MOA a lot, and if I did instagram, MOA has that covered, too. Based on what @freemo said, it sounds like there is more compatibility in what can be reshared, too.

okay. https://moa.party/ is officially 😋 awesome. Besides the open-source goodness, the faux-text aesthetic on their website is pretty great.

@freemo @publicvoit That looks awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Very nice. I would like to see the Tech manufacturing industry get its resource pillaging under control.

@writh I'm all about the webapps here, with different Firefox containers for each of my Mastodon, Mstdn, and QOTO accounts.

@freemo You are right -- I hadn't read that. I still haven't read all of it; that's a lot of text. But good info, that. qoto seems to be a very good place

@freemo oh! That makes sense. Nice feature, that.

wait... I just noticed a subscribe button on someone's profile in addition to the "follow" and now I'm confused. What's the difference?

@tripu on the one hand, this is great news for women and I am glad to see them working so hard. On the other hand, I am very disappointed in men who seem so ready to be stupid. Come on! Step it up!

Shucks. @publicvoit recommended https://crossposter.masto.donte.com.br/ for cross-posting Mastodon and Twitter doesn't allow qoto.org, probably because of our glorious 65k character limit. Ah well. I can go back to writing my books an qoto.

A very nice tidbit with #emacs workflow works like this: I receive a link to an article through Telega.el (A++ Telegram client). I press the shortcut to open it in readable mode with w3m (text only, bypassing 80% of paywalls) Then I invoke spray mode and speed read the thing. A few short keys and now I feel guilty whenever I read an article slowly, via scrolling in my GUI browser.

@freemo How do I make sure I'm federated with some server?
