@theTJ mhm, Twidere kann das, aber die Version, die überhaupt Mastodon kann, ist noch beta und hat dementsprechend ein paar kleine Nervigkeiten https://twitter.com/TwidereProject/status/855866742358261760
With news of Unroll.me selling user inbox info to Uber, lots of people are repeating "if you're not paying for it, you're the product."
I've said before, and will continue to say, that that is the wrong formulation. Sometimes you pay for it and you're still the product – look at US ISPs. Sometimes you don't pay for it and you're not the product – free software.
The real question is whether a software or service empowers users, which can't be boiled down to whether you paid.
@theTJ voll gut :)
@cuffedCatling awww!! :>
@theTJ i'm sorry :/ yeah, server choices can be really hard :o I like it on computerfairi.es, and at first glance, cybre.space seems nice as well. i've heard witches.town is also great, and i haven't checked them out more closely, but toot.cat and wandering.shop look promising to me
Ok, I made a new secondary account at cybre.space (since neither mastodon.social nor the other place that I'm at are really where I want to be when computerfairi.es is having troubles): @maunzikation@cybre.space
I think I'll just import my follows, sorry if that is annoying :O You don't have to follow, just know that I might be there when I'm not here (it's also linked in all my other bios now)
*feels like one of those people who prepare for disaster as a hobby, but in cute*
Call of... Help?
Looking for a few people, who'd be willing to work together to host, manage, and contribute to a Mastodon Wiki.
We want to decentralize stuff like this, and not everything has to be under Gargron.
It will be a great place to collect things like how to help out (with other stuff than code), who to contact.
Contact info for server admins.
Etc.
I know there are a few WikiMedia people around, who's up for it?

…that I keep finding myself humming a song that I listen to almost exclusively when I need to calm myself might be another hint at me not being as ok right now as I feel but i don't get it, also me surprise-crying
what are you trying to do, brain, could you maybe write it down instead of placing obscure hints
Okay, but putting that aside… My favourites are https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/962#issuecomment-295442521 (the second, non-genital-looking set in that post) and https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/962#issuecomment-296230441 and https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/962#issuecomment-296419607 (though it does kind of remind me of evernote).

"you made penises! you didn't mean to make penises!" i need an emoji reaction for that sentiment
People are brainstorming new logos for Mastodon in this GitHub issue:

I really like the direction https://github.com/SamSaramyak's is going:
