The constant-threats-to-defederate thing is going to kill this place, seriously.

Defederating an instance is an extreme measure and it should only be taken in extreme circumstances.

Finding out I might stop getting posts from people I explicitly follow because they happen to be on an instance being defederated by mine all because a bunch of admins I don't know got in a spat over a user I don't follow is just about the most annoying value proposition imaginable.

Mastodon's Mastodon'ts.

There are a few fundamentally broken things about how Mastodon posts work that are terrible vectors for abuse, as well as being bad for basic usability. Maybe they are fixable, I don't know. To be clear: I am a fan of Mastodon....

it is funny when people have interaction rules in their bio and then don't follow yours and get uppity about being called out on it

i'd love to have a job but since i legally have to answer "yes" to "will you now or in the future require visa sponsorship to work in the uk" or "no" to "are you legally allowed to work in the uk" depending on which flavor of awful the company's application sheet decided to be written in this week none of my applications ever make it out of the rubbish bin

i really need stable income but since jobs aren't real anymore i'm taking any help i can get. i have a ko-fi you can send money to and there's even some pins left to buy there. i have a patreon where i don't have any rewards because i couldn't think of any and nobody has suggested any yet. you can also get a pixel portrait for a very reasonable price. or you can tell your employer about me

i'm going to be back in the uk after the 15th with access to a workshop similar to mine if any friends want their vintage tech repaired without having to ship it to brazil

I co-wrote a cookbook for depressed people and other folks with zero spoons, only knives. It's not meant to be gourmet cooking so much as a survival guide for late stage capitalism. And you can get it for free!
