I will kill the next ascii cat I need to rate helpful to pet

I use it as well. People hating it completely is weird. I get that for profit is stinky but most people don't complain about that, they complain about it using a different protocol. As long as it is foss, (which it is) using a different protocol is fine, especially because their whole point of developing their own protocol is to achieve feature parity with Twitter

Edit: before anyone mentions, you can host your own bluesky instance now

You can look at the app list on join-lemmy.org. Ignore the big scary warnings on there about non foss apps unless you want a foss app. Most of the proprietary apps are just made by hobbyists who don't want the world to see their spaghetti code.

I also use boost, everything about it seems to work apart from spoiler tags (think because the app still uses reddit's format instead of lemmy's).

Depends on the writer, chances are that those in the bbc who are involved with the mastodon instance are the nerds (like us) and the writer of this article doesn't know as much and is just listing the places the MPs went, and they are politicians so they wouldn't know about the "nerdy options"

Not my story but my dad's. He was in London for work and was using the public transit. I don't know if it's like this anywhere else but uk buses throw you around a lot. So a group of American tourists got on, with their typical "having a conversation with a stranger" behaviour, something unacceptable in the uk (/hj). The bus starts and the Americans just go flying and the entire bus of brits are just laughing at them.

Great ancestors!

Setting a task to look at the task is next level procrastination I could only dream of achieving

I heard you got a referral, remember all those times I've helped you with (insert problem)? You wouldn't mind if I asked for a referral from you?

Fine for me, saw another post a while ago talking about something like this but it didn't crash my boost, it might just be an issue with the cache or something

sorry about the amazing image quality I made this in less than a minute (I didn't even export the image from the editor just screenshotted it lol)
