@daviwil I only have four at the moment. That's just more than I usually have :)
@daviwil I'll add it to my list of issues I need to file for various things :)
@daviwil I can't see an easy option for changing your Mastodon account, though. I used a number of accounts for keeping myself focused on Twitter and keep the same practice on Mastodon. Switching is the main reason I use Mastodon in the browser, so I have different accounts in different tabs.

Mastodon is another example of a service that works great in Emacs. I'm posting this from mastodon.el!
@avelino we can already use RSS to follow people on Mastodon (great feature). Ability to write in Zulip-style would complete the experience as making Mastodon a full service/protocol and not just a client-dependent experience.
Is there a good way to post to a #mastodon instance via email?
last week my #orgmode started having severe issues (which is a major work issue), apparently not loading a crucial file. Today I was having problems with my bluetooth headphones, too; connected but not seen as an audio device. Suddenly everything is working again. I don't know why. #GhostsInTheMachine #emacs #guix #bluetooth
@itsburnsie don't delete it! Others can steal the user name and impersonate you.

Well, lets see if they care anymore if I expose this shit on twitter. If you have an account there feel free to show some support:

I don’t understand why people think Mastodon is difficult. It seems pretty straightforward, and the separate servers are no biggie. I’m enjoying this fresh start here, like moving to a new apartment!

Read the inspiring story of how Eyüpsultan, Turkey switched to free software, gained independence from proprietary software, and saved money ($$$) in the process! If they did it in their city, your city can do it too! | Read more at: https://u.fsf.org/3m9

Twitter was special. But it's time to leave

People don't realize that Reddit *used* to be open source. https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit

My favorite hashtag is #HugOps and I'm glad it's made the transition to Mastodon.
It's used by engineers to express empathy and support for production engineers battling a system problem.
Engineers often give #HugOps to engineers in other companies, often competitors. It's the exact opposite of schadenfreude.
Right now, #HugOps to the mastohost folks keeping that ship afloat in the face of a huge influx of new usage.
But also #HugOps to the remaining production engineers at Twitter.
I've been looking for certain #clojure swag. I finally found some! https://www.teepublic.com/mask/8637677-clojure-programming-language #FaceMask #ClojureMerchandise

Seeing people with coding ability commenting on features they want in Mastodon, many of them framing their insights as if there is a bug.
Almost all ideas I have seen so far could be implemented in a client or a relay. For ones that can't, there are pull requests. For ones that are declined, downstream forking is feasible.
It's #OpenSource & based on a truly open standard, #ActivityPub. How about we frame ideas positively & look for places to contribute? This is not a walled garden run by VCs.
