bluesky... more like... boobsky

hehehehhehehehehehehehhehehehehehehe

We love mastodon and ActivtyPub. However, this is your irregular reminder that bsky.social implements the AT protocol and is also federated.

The bsky.social instance is the biggest instance, yes, but it is more than possible to host your own. Please spread out on ATP, just as has been done by everyone on AP, we implore you.

Also, side note: Mastodon is not the only AP server out there, it happens to be very common, but there are alternatives that will federate with Mastodon, and every other AP compatible service. (Notable ones are PeerTube and Sharkey.)

Can we appreciate for a minute that at some point great people came together and created top tier free software that in the past would cost you thousands of dollars?

DNI if you think

You try the boop, you get the nom.

google should change the button to i'm feeling clucky and then it turns you into a chicken and you go bwak bwak XD

i know, i wont

I love living on the edge and would like to try out @kde Plasma 6. I'm on plain Arch; do I have to build from source? #linux #kde #plasma6 #arch

sighing as I add another tick mark to the tally of "amount of times bluesky has stolen mastodon's thunder just when I think it's finally going to get off the ground"

I will happily high five anyone that convinces me to not instantly fume every time I think about bluesky

Would buying an MP3 player improve my life? No

Even though i know that, do I still want to buy a $250 music player? Yes

I'm afraid that I won't be able to deny the bug-furry allegations for much longer

lol am I like over-designing this? 😂

I need a way to test this but I don't have a Mastodon server for testing. Don't really want to send random test reports to other instance admins 😬

Not on dev site yet, still on my local dev. #PhanpySocialDev

he was a mastodon boy. she was a bluesky girl

OK, might as well. #introduction time again!

I'm eblu! I do #GraphicDesign and/or #GameDev sometimes whenever I'm not procrastinating on it (pretty sure I'm #AuDHD). I also dabble in fun little doodles and music every now and then, though I wouldn't call myself a serious contender in those fields just yet.

I've been using Mastodon on and off since about 2018 but only really got into gear around 2021-2022. It's been a learning experience, and I'm going to be the first to admit that it's got some pretty glaring flaws, but I haven't loved a social network as much as the Fediverse, so I'm happy to be here!

(also—please don't be alarmed by the memes all over my account. these are normal and you'll understand the jokes eventually)
