"Heh, remember iframes?" you chuckle to yourself, reminiscing, "remember those?"
Your coworker looks at you with a quizzical look. "Iframes? We still use those all over the site."
You glance at the calendar. It is 2006.
"Oh-Oh no.." You stammer.
"Anyway, it looks like we're gonna have to take those transparent PNGs off the homepage," your coworker continues, "it looks like internet explorer doesn't support them."
You would scream, but only bonzi buddy would hear
Librem.one, Moderation Discussion
Admins: perhaps you should consider blocking social.librem.one. This instance’s policies could affect the safety of many of us on the fediverse. The instance automatically rejects both local and remote reports, meaning there is no way to bring bad users and content to the attention of their moderators. See here: https://source.puri.sm/liberty/smilodon/commit/9cae431902a2c0ce6438c6722a3a901e279c78fc
In discussion within their chatrooms, I received this response:
quick note about reporting (copied from other chat room): this is correct, after deep deliberation we have concluded that no company should control speech - we have a “stay safe” guide in the pipeline, but briefly, block bad users and report illegal content - in the long-term federated, community-managed blocklists are likely the answer
This does not seem right to me - if we’re subjected to their users, the only action admins can take is to block their server rather than have our issues addressed. This makes for a poor member of the fediverse.
Oh hey, I can finally reveal my magic TCAF table number: 263! @itsnero and I will be on the second floor selling our cool cool comics, so if you're in the greater Toronto area on the 11th and 12th be sure to swing on by! (also guwhaaAAAAAT THAT'S LIKE A WEEK AWAY HOLY SHIT)
Once again I'm in the financial tall grass*, and my internet's about to be cut off. If you can spare a couple dollars to help me out, I'd appreciate it:

I'm just angry because this is a problem in general.
People claiming that people who draw digitally aren't real artists because they can hit ctrl-z, people claiming people who don't wanna bother with (or just straight up can't afford) film photography are fake because they can rely on automatic camera settings, etc.
Instead of being excited about the possibilities those "new" things can offer to artists, people gotta shit on them instead.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
