Do you follow someone, and you enjoy their posts but they boost too much stuff?

You can mute just their boosts if you want:

1. Open your Mastodon app or log in through your server’s website
2. Go to the profile of the person whose boosts you want to hide
3. Click on the ︙or ⋯ button at the top and select Hide Boosts From... (or Hide Reblogs on some apps)
4. If you change your mind, go back to their profile and select Show Boosts From… (or Show Reblogs)

My knitting machine clock, Tempus Nectit, is complete! I advanced it to the current time and mounted it on the wall. The white section is waste yarn to cast on, and the red stripe marks Valentine's Day. The shiny metal "tooth" marks the hour hand. Currently it is set to noon. The clock will advance every hour, completing a full circle (and row) every 12 hours, or two rows a day.

Now I have the massive task of the technical write-up for my site.

Don't you like it when someone in Smash Bros's online quickplay is being toxic and you just, you know, run them over a little bit? 😉

I declined a rematch.

@zudn @Big_Diggity @ChiaChatter Yeah. I just hope that I encounter a useful bot interaction someday, I suppose..? 😄

@zudn @Big_Diggity @ChiaChatter I do not know. I don't have the tag in my bio, and this is only the second time so far I've had to deal with a bot issue.

@Big_Diggity That looks neat. If it wants to be a gated Christian community, I can understand that. Would "read-only" ActivityPub access (if you know what I mean) be a good idea? So that people from outside the site still could read posts, even if they couldn't reply et cetera. I just think ActivityPub should be very common.

End-to-end encryption for a Facebook-like site? How does that work?

@zudn @Big_Diggity @ChiaChatter I got a fairly quick favorite from it, too, for my most recent post. I'm going to block the bot.

@Big_Diggity @zudn It doesn't show up as a bot in my client. (Although, I'm using the official Android Mastodon app, which doesn't work well.)

Controversial topic 

Oh great, my phone is now in the middle of a large update without my permission. And I was connected to my hotspot too.
