Mastodon, an alternative microblogging platform, has seen several spikes in user sign-ups since Elon Musk purchased Twitter in late October. nbcnews.com/data-graphics/twit

hey, i might not be a developer, but @Gargron has made it exceedingly easy to evangelize #mastodon ~ whatever i can do to help keep this going, growing ~ it's everything i've wanted #community in #socialmedia to be

Intriguing. I'm going to follow this story and do some experiments myself ⤵️ #lightphone2 #anxietyrelief

Episode 1: my dumb phone sehejo.substack.com/p/episode- przez @wallabagapp

Going on a week long trip, travelling by land, with a few days of travel in sometimes poor network connectivity gave me a reason to check up on my offline docs setup. Zeal is an awesome #opensource offline docs browser based on the proprietary Dash documentation browser, supporting the same docsets. Updating the core docs is easy enough with a few clicks, but I wanted to also have the #Matrix spec with me fully offline. This was recently contributed by Christian Paul - but unfortunately Zeal lacks proper support for easily pulling in Dash user contributed docsets.

No fear, there is a handy CLI app to install user contributed Dash docsets called zeal-user-contrib. Just install, run and choose the docsets you want installed.

The blue bird seems to be going bonkers, and its new owner believes that hardcore coders are the solution all issues, including moderation.

But can moderation be automated? Can it be apolitical? Does it work on decentralised systems like Mastodon, and how does it scale?

Come and ask questions to our guest tomorrow at 18:00 CET to find out what the hell is happening on platforms these days.

Watching the Musk man discover that Apple charges 30% for any use of the App Store, and calling it a « secret tax » is hilarious. I don’t like that 30% commission but it’s not secret and has never been. It’s also not a tax.
Not surprising that Musk wouldn’t know what a tax is, though.
In general, watching that halfwit repeatedly destroy his public image with his own tweets is extremely satisfying.

I've heard of people having occasional issues in some communities.
None of that here on #TootCommunity
Thanks to everyone who is supportive and friendly, but the biggest thanks to our "chap at the helm," @jorjin

If you're just getting started on here, you may be wondering why this place has so many servers and apps. Why make it so complicated?

Click here to find out why:

Twitter is all on one server (twitter.com). This made it VERY easy for Musk to buy it. Any centralised network can be bought out just like this.

The Fediverse is different: as long as we stay spread out on many servers, no one will ever be able to buy this network, not even the richest person in the world.

Congratulations to the Toronto Argonauts on winning their 18th Grey Cup!
The Argos have won 18 of 23 Grey Cups they have appeared in for a .782 winning percentage.

The Blue Bombers are now 12-15 in 27 Grey Cups, for a .444 winning percentage.

Tomorrow will be the last day we see the Sun until February. Well we’ll likely not see it as it is forecast to be overcast. People image we have one long night, but that’s not true. We have a varying amount of twilight as the Sun skims below the horizon.
