@maple I wouldn't bother personally, just raid their wiki for tips

@softgoat me: oh shit, I haven't run any updates for a month, apt update && apt upgrade

@maple blub morning

@Jo kinda but not quite

They're planning ads and data mining, but you can opt out of that by paying €2.99 a month

I wonder if the person/people behind this albin thing are regretting their life decisions yet

@hfrazey ooh, those look good

I'm sure you can get simple clip on ones for a lot cheaper but that's a pretty neat looking setup

I'm not sure I'm going to call albin.social hiveway 3.0 because this one is trying to raise actual money instead of dunning-krugerrands

@elomatreb eh, there's always going to be people coming in trying to make a buck, only thing we can do is hammer them into the dirt every time they try

@maple no problem bunny bun

@maple yeah, already handled for us

I'd advise suspending federation with albin.social

They clearly say that they'll be doing data mining on accounts on their instance, wouldn't be out of the way for them to data mine anything they come across from the fediverse as well

Also, y'know, they're pricks anyway

Oh hey albin.social, nice try there filing the serial numbers off mastodon and tusky and then trying to make money off it

Not even giving credit to the original devs as well! I'm sure this is going to go really well for you

@djsundog don't suppose adding a trackpoint is an option?

@natalie@masto.ninja extra points: under each and every transistor

@bombsfall@mastodon.social no, they get fired into an active volcano, I thought we agreed on this already

OOOH! OOOH! OOOH! EXCITED!

@colon_three ah, Detective Who

It's all a big ball of crimey-wimey stuff
