@soft_chomps .tk is a free domain that's free because after it expires it gets parked by possibly malicious advertising

the mastodon instances with .tk in their domain name worry me

@Admin well that error implies it's uncertain how to connect to your db (at "db"?)
do you have db in /etc/hosts

mastodon should have a plugin system so changes can be made without breaking across git pulls

HEY KIDS! IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER EXCITING EPISODE OF **KNOW YOUR DASHES**!!!

This is a "m-dash" — it's kinda long! You use it to separate thoughts, kinda like I did just now! It's called that, because it's as wide as the "m" character!

This here is a "n-dash": "–" you use it to separate dates like "2003–14"!

"-" is a hyphen! You use it to separate compound words that come before a noun, like "state-of-the-art waterbuffalo"!

"--" is two hyphens. IF YOU USE THIS YOU ARE A COMPLETE, UTTER FOOL.

If you use one account for everything, you may not be seeing the full breadth of Mastodon. Get an account on an art instance, watch the cool art fly by the local timeline. Get an account on a French instance, bone up on your high school French. Make an instance for your coworkers, talk shop.

I don't wear swim trunks to work, I don't wear a suit to the pub, and I don't wear cargo shorts to my sister's wedding. Apply that to Mastodon and you might find it's quite natural. Decentralize yourself! 😁

@squirrelbutt it's good to have early warning instead of late warning!!!

a mastodon instance where following someone is "rezzing them" and blocking someone is "derezzing them"

good morning to the sunkeepers starting their shifts, good night to the sunkeepers ending their shift, and good day to those sunkeepers continuing to guard the sun as i speak

good morning, and in case i don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night

it's always "oh god why did i wake up at this hour" hour somewhere

can i just post good morning every single hour and greet everyone

@squirrelbutt honestly id prefer it more just to be like the way it is, just with a pinker tint instead of a purple tint maybe?
