@cordova5029 @SingingNala Where can we get these audio rips? I want to be able to binge watch Star Trek through Voice Dream without my streaming service getting judgy and making me select next episode.

In reply to @pilhofer.

@pilhofer @weirdwriter @jeffjarvis No I don't think you're missing something, Ghost is a more fully featured platform whereas Buttondown is basically "We let you do a newsletter and handle all the backend email bits with some limited design".

In reply to @aardrian.

@aardrian Seriously though, the only thing that slightly surprised me was the quickness between his signing of that open letter and the public announcement.

In reply to @aardrian.

@aardrian <sarc> No one saw this coming! </sarc>

In reply to @Ken.

@Ken @BorrisInABox Yeah what Ken said. The included HTML is a mess and you're better off using a third-party tool.

In reply to @Pawpower.

@Pawpower I hate asparagus so you can have that, but the rest sounds good and I would switch in a different veggie.

In reply to @thedarktangent.

@thedarktangent Narrator: It will absolutely take the next generation because the current generation and its voters refuse to learn anything about any of this.

In reply to @Brandon_h.

@Brandon_h Aw man I'm so sorry things aren't going well for you and I hope they improve in the next week.

In reply to @theglobalvoice.

@theglobalvoice Welcome to the fediverse, or at least Mastodon. You'll find that Mastodon is your gateway to the wider fediverse, and also that there's a ton of other stuff to explore here: Bookwyrm for books, Funkwhale for music, and you can follow users of other apps all from Mastodon.

@ANGELGIRL1976 Most of your weather stuff will likely go away, as most of those accounts use the API to automate posting and that's done as of yesterday I think.

@keao @munchkinbear @Pipistrelle Not going to get into a long explainer I haven't had enough coffee yet and my sleep schedule's all messed up again.

In reply to @keao.

@keao @munchkinbear @Pipistrelle Yeah it can, because what Mastodon tries to abstract out in the function of "aliusing" is just DNS, so all those conditions apply, including propagation.

In reply to @munchkinbear.

@munchkinbear @keao @Pipistrelle It can take a bit for followers to migrate given the way aliusing is done.

@rysiek Reading the transcript now. He's gonna have fun speedrunning the content moderation curve.

In reply to @alexl.

@alexl @menelion reason for why things are the mess they currently are.

In reply to @alexl.

@alexl @menelion Wait hang on. FLOSS software devs will gladly make their software at least marginally visually appealing for free and that's just par for the course, but making it accessible for free is just too much of an ask? I'm all for FLOSS devs getting paid. God knows I've done enough contributing to FLOSS projects for free. But making accessibility some sort of extra/nice to have when actually it's something you should be doing out of the gate is a huge +

In reply to @edwardchampion.

@edwardchampion I've read 103 so far this year and am not anywhere near done. #Bookstodon

In reply to @FreakyFwoof.

@FreakyFwoof I've been on Mastodon since 2018, and have only had occasion to use some sort of quote-like functionality twice. That's how necessary I find it to be here.

In reply to @cambridgeport90.

@cambridgeport90 Don't know if they have. I can see though where if a Mastodon instance is single-user that kind of data could be essentially PII and so the rel="noreferrer" attribute.

In reply to @cambridgeport90.

@cambridgeport90 Yeah I hear you on that. And I get that certain types of data shouldn't be collected unless necessary. But I don't think referrer data falls under that problem set, provided you don't do things like clicktracking ETC.
