For those who have tried multiple apps, it would more helpful to others if you also mentioned WHY the certain app is your favorite. Is there some unique feature you really like or something else that sets it apart from all the others.

Personally I’ve only used Voyager. It seems to have everything I need but I cannot really call it my favorite as I haven’t tried any others.

I never understood why exactly it’s such a controversial topic. It’s my third year on Mastodon, and I’ve never felt the service was lacking just because not having proper quote posts. But then, I also don’t understand most of the arguments against them, especially when/if they’re implemented as an opt-in for the original poster.

Basically, people on both sides seem angry over nothing, and I’m just like, ‘Neat, a new feature. Anyway…’

You will be able to choose whether your posts can be quoted at all.
You will be notified when someone quotes you.
You will be able to withdraw your post from the quoted context at any time.

To me this sounds like the right way of doing it. Quote posts have always been kinda a hot topic on Mastodon. Some people want them while others absolutely do not. So best just let everyone to decide for themselves.

Yes, I thought I was the only one! I don’t remember when or why I started doing it, but I’m so used to it by now that it feels weird if I don’t turn the lights off.

Recently I got a new showerhead and it has a dim light built-in and uses the water flow for power. So no complete darkness anymore but the dim light doesn’t bother me and it’s actually useful.

Could be worse, at least it’s not ad supported.
“Before we start, a quick word from today’s sponsor, NordVPN…”

The FAA report said Boeing had calculated the probability of LRD activation as low enough to expect about one incident per year.

So it’s okay that once a year there’s a flight where the cockpit or the cabin fills up with possibly lethal smoke and fumes? Surely there’s no way this could cause any issues. After all, a bulletin was issued that fixes everything…

Let’s just hope some FAA personnel happens to be on board when this next happens.

Yeah, kinda sounds this was designed by someone who has never actually attended a LAN party

“Can I ask you a question?” is a funny one. They already did, so what they are actually asking is if they can ask you ANOTHER question.

hey, 3:30

I don’t like it when someone messages me and they start with only “hello” or “hi” without adding anything else. Especially if it’s someone I don’t know yet. Please give me something more to get the conversation going!

It’s kinda interesting that the saying about cats having multiple lives is pretty much universal but then the amount differs. I wonder why that is

Come to think of it, I kinda do this IRL lol. During the summer months I maintain a full-body shave, like femboy style. But in winter I just trim down the most extensive grow. Mostly 'cause I’m lazy, but also because during the cold months my skin always gets super dry and itchy no matter how much lotion I use, and I don’t wanna make it worse by shaving.

I love how the dragon has a massive phone but it’s still slightly too small for it. Must be hard to use that thing

Sadly Thinkpads no longer are what they used to be. I got the X1 Extreme Gen 5 couple of years back and have had all kinds of problems with it. Blue screens, problem with fans sometimes getting stuck at 100%, constant problems connecting to the dock, not to mention bad battery life… My coworker had to get a warranty replacement when the usb-c port stopped working without any apparent reason only after a month of use. And other coworkers with newer models are also reporting issues.

In addition to what others have already pointed out, please also note that mentioning any other account in a “private” message chain will allow that account to retroactively see all the messages in the chain.

Basically DMs in Mastodon are pretty useless.

Providing expiration notification emails means that we have to retain millions of email addresses connected to issuance records. As an organization that values privacy, removing this requirement is important to us.

I fully support the privacy argument (I didn’t realize it has been mandatory to give some emai address to get a cert) but why not make it optional instead?

The reminder email from them has saved me once when originally “temporary” domain was not so temporary after all and I forgot to set up auto-renewal and monitoring for it.

If he’s been a real bad boy, they might remove the backups too :3

You clearly have a system that works for you, not gonna argue against that.

I’ve only seen the “chaos version” of that. Like I go up to a coworker, they wanna show me something and then spend the following 30 seconds clicking through the tabs until they finally find the correct one.

Then you finally hit send and immediately after notice the horrible typo you made and somehow didn’t catch. Should have read it eleventh time. But at least you didn’t sent the dancing video this time…
