damn, who could’ve possibly seen that coming? 🫥

saddam hussein is in there twisting my bones. i should be gripping rat

finally getting more time off from work versus the 60-70 hour weeks i was pulling before, so i started participating in a game jam and trying to have a presence on fedi again.

There is no should or shouldn’t, they’ve always had and been entitled to that choice. People who develop and host those platforms can make whatever choice they want.

ActivityPub/the Fediverse is only a protocol. If you philosophically disagree with how a platform makes use of that protocol, then you can (theoretically) just use another platform.

not so hot because things are tense around my house, but i’m moving out towards the end of the week so hopefully it’ll be over soon.

Genuine question: what happened last time?

Yup! If the software supports it, instance admins can usually add relays from their control panel.

It does work that way, but Mastodon and some other microblogging software like Firefish (fka Calckey), Pleroma, etc. can also use relays to populate their federated timelines.

What’re they mad about? 🤔

What an audacious request. I hope it’ll be rejected — this just has “bad idea” written all over it.

Respectfully, how on earth did this design get cleared? 😭

Cloaks are really a cool idea and I miss them, not that I was ever alive for them being en vogue haha

A great look despite the obvious hazard of them getting caught on things

omg happy belated birthday!! 🤠🥳

i give my week a 4/5, been busy the past few days trying to set up a Firefish instance with my partner which has been just awesome and i’m super excited to open it up and get people on it. rly inspired by beehaw’s community-building style.

in less awesome news i’m moving back home at the end of the week and i’m not looking forward to it. moving is so stressful and i don’t want to be back home with my dad either lol.

thank you for your service chris 🫡 you are a pillar of this community

I’m surprised to hear that anyone would complain about this with C. Even the Wikipedia page about encapsulation cites C as a non-OOP language example.

VS Code, but may switch to VSCodium or Neovim eventually.

Respectfully, I just don’t think this is the right post for this kind of humor.

I use mostly the web app. Memmy, Mlem, Jerboa, Liftoff, etc. all look cool, but to be honest, I’m not sure I’ll ever go back to having an app on my phone like I did with Reddit. I think I want my engagement with Lemmy to be more on a “when I feel like it” basis than a “when a push notification summons me” basis.
