Okay. #mastoadmin commentary time.

I've written a quick guide, So You're A Mastodon Moderator: noelle.codes/so_youre_a_mastod

My goal for this is threefold:

* I want to create a useful reference for moderators, so they know what options are available.
* I want to create a useful reference for /users/, so they know what the powers and limitations of being a moderator are.
* I want to help establish a /standard of moderation/, so we're all on a level playing field.

True facts: @maple doesn't use an alarm clock, she has a script on another computer that sends her a wake-on-LAN packet when it's time to wake up

The furries have invaded mastodon in much the same way the romans invaded that city built next to the river Tiber in Italy

I'm pretty sure I've been making references to the fediverse being "Animal Crossing: the social network" from since then as well

Always funny seeing people who joined the fediverse in one of the twitter exoduses... exodi... exodes... whatever acting like they're the first people to turn up to the party

I got here in april-ish of '17 and I'm far from an OT (original toota), people have been having fun here for ages

LB: Likewise, as far as I know, Elekk was The First gaming-specific Mastodon instance, and it's been anti-GG since day one. >_>

I'd be posting pictures of big hedgie but she's gotten into the habit of hiding in the back of the cafe

You can't see her back there but you can hear all the munching noises

drugs, musk, rogan 

I haven't actually watched the video, but from one clip I've seen Joe Rogan was talking about mixing tobacco with weed as some amazing thing he was "turned on to"

Fucker, were you really so goddamn rich as a kid you had enough weed to smoke without having to pad it out with tobacco?

Sometimes I have to feel sorry for Torvalds, certainly not often, but sometimes

He "accidentally booked a family holiday to Edinburgh" the same week as a Linux conference he had to go to in Vancouver and the Linux Foundation decided to move the conference to Edinburgh so he still has to go

Bastard just wanted a damn holiday

The local under-10s rugby team is collecting donations by standing at end of the local tesco checkouts and offering to pack bags for everyone

By which I mean everyone is giving them money to stay the hell out of the way while we pack our shopping

5 book series (because I can't think of 5 videogames)

The Illuminatus! Trilogy
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
The Culture series
The Sprawl Trilogy
The Dresden Files

very British reference

I can't be bothered to check if they have, but if farmersOnlyDotCom haven't run a set of ads with The Wurzels - Combine Harvester playing then they're missing a trick

hot printer take 

the reason everyone thinks printers are shit is because everyone keeps buying shitty printers

what the fuck do you expect you'll get for 50 bucks?

STOP BUYING SHIT PRINTERS

the hedgehogs are messy lil critters so, while I don't expect for a second that they'll use it, I made a little broom so they could clean the cafe themselves

elon musk, conspiracy theory 

Muskie has a bit of the Innsmouth look about him

THIS MUST BE WHY HE'S LANDING THOSE ROCKETS ON THE SEA!

HE'S WORKING WITH THE DEEP ONES!
