mastodon didn’t have quote posts because:

it inevitably adds toxicity to people’s behaviours. You are tempted to quote when you should be replying, and so you speak at your audience instead of with the person you are talking to. It becomes performative. Even when doing it for “good” like ridiculing awful comments, you are giving awful comments more eyeballs that way

Some mastodon apps do support quotes though, by loading any linked toots in the posts themselves

I think in general it would be problematic, but also I wish streetpass still existed because that made traveling fun

Tweets are now 𝕏crements

ChatGPT is great for simple questions that have been asked and answered a million times previously. I don’t see any downside to these types of questions not being posted to SO…

I agree, and think megathreads should only be used when the scope is limited to prevent the same story from being posted multiple times

I don’t agree with it, I’d prefer people use filters (most clients seem to support them).

No, people are annoyed by the constant articles he generates.

Of course there are fonts that support every character, the characters themselves would be useless if they couldn’t be rendered by anything. I’m only saying that this specific font doesn’t support the character.

The character (𝕏) doesn’t actually doesn’t exist in the font, because supporting arbitrary Unicode characters in every font would be absurd. Paste it into the font preview and it renders a black square.

Heck yeah, Backbone! Did you know there’s a new maintainer on the project? He’s been busy lately trying to clean up the codebase.

I also use Semantic UI(‘s community fork, Fomantic UI) so I can avoid the hell that is modern UI frameworks. It works really well with Backbone

Seems needlessly paranoid

Grimlord, Into the Radius, Among Us, Vertigo 2. And then there’s some impressive mods for Fallout 4 and Skyrim. There’s also some nice crossplay games with pancake players: Phasmophobia and the more recent The Break In.

And then I like Pavlov for its Push mode and custom content like the Escape from Tarkov map. Obviously most of this is PC, but some are available on quest and you can also use Remote Desktop VR to stream to your headset.

It’s apparently an event icon because place is starting again tomorrow

Oh, that’s where the new app icon is from! I guess that makes sense. Shame it happened after I stopped contributing.

It sounds like they’d been wanting to do this since April but it kept getting delayed 🤷‍♂️ my assumption of desperation was premature

I was just looking at this last night, I hope it works well!

I use it for programming!

I’ve been listening to the FTL soundtrack since high school!

psst, give Heftyanchor Archive a search

Been using it for a few years without paying, never felt the need.

It looks like their paid plan adds cross-platform (including desktop) syncing, folders, some cloud storage for uploading files, a watch app, and some more themes.

I enjoyed Deathless!
