Lengthy explanation of language feels end.
So… this isn't really about a possibly awkward name for federated, it's mostly about OMG IDK WHAT MY LANGUAGE SETTINGS ARE I HAVE TO CHANGE SOMETHING, I DON'T WANT THINGS SET TO GERMAN BECAUSE THAT USUALLY DOESN'T BODE WELL.
Now, this is different than other translations of websites, because, i know, it is possible to improve it if it is really bad etc.
My reaction is more due to German appearing at all. It's a mixture of "translated websites are usually hardly readable" and "if they are readable, they were probably still translated by someone who didn't think it was necessary to include women and nonbinary people in language and I'll be reading a lot of ~generically masculine nouns~ here".
Omg, on my phone i get the (partly existent) German translation and… well hello, WHOLE KNOWN WEB https://computerfairi.es/media/ews5xQNgCUTx0blQqkQ
dear diary, today, someone named YOLO_STALIN told everyone in the federated timeline to pick up worms that are struggling on the sidewalk and put them in the grass. I am suddenly inclined to think that this Internet thing is going well.

yeah you get what I mean. I can't even say I'm complaining. But srsly, can you ever get so used to reading the word "gem" that you don't have that reaction?

wow omg what am i doing to language
feeling bad and like i should never use any 2nd language again. off to do some shopping and then more of, well, all of this.
So far, neither computerfairi.es nor im-in.space has imported all of the accounts that I'm following. 2 are missing on one, 3 on the other. Well, maybe they just takes some time. I'd be super interested to know which instances those are from, but I'm too lazy to compare the lists right now.

I designed #Amaroq entirely with localizable strings and plan to start supporting more languages in v1.1, if you're interested in helping out in this process feel free to email amaroq.feedback@gmail.com! ☺️
Kind of fitting that my first toot on this instance is about, well, food. Hello. Consider this my #introduction.
food
I need to go out and buy some food now. Ugh. I'm still exhausted from the past few days, but food is also a very good and important thing, I guess :<

Do any of you know good alternatives to "slave"? I dislike the word because of its colonial context. But I imagine a middle-aged man with grey hair and a tuxedo when I think "servant". I'd prefer a word that works well for an obedient naked queer boy with cuffs.
