chandwiches: made with rotato potato bread
Using crap like a11y, i18n l10n, whatever instead of writing the whole word is lazy and terrible for readability
Don't do it

Remember: don't use "a11y". Spell out "accessibility". Using a term that people have to decipher in order to figure out what you're talking about *is inaccessible behavior*.
And award for understatement of the year goes to:

For some reason, some Markdown implementations on the fediverse right now are either doubling \n or sending \r\n, which gets read as a double newline in many clients. This makes toots with newlines look twice as long as they're supposed to on the FTL, which really screws up the intended effect.
Please be careful with your Markdown implementations so that you're not making your users' posts look bad when they federate!
HEY FEDI DEV TYPE PEOPLE
If you're implementing markdown on your instance can you make sure you're not doubling up on \n or using \r\n? They get caught as multiple newlines and make toots look like crap
"hello! just poked me head around the bush to say thanks for all the food!"
We may need to open more franchises of the hedgehog cafe, had three queuing up outside!

Farer are putting out some nice stuff, they've just released their new Lander Chronograph
Automatic chrono movement (ETA 2894-2 with custom rotor), 39x12.5mm case size, colourful dial, quite nice all around
Also fairly well priced for an auto-chrono these days
A recent study has shown that orange essential oil is exceedingly effective at curing a particular condition
That condition is "not smelling sufficiently of oranges"
