thank you… more of a thought experiment now than a true need, but it seems like if it became a need, i'd be better off building a matrix account. i suspected this but had hoped for more :/
got my tech within the last year, was stunned at how not old-white-guy the class was. all age groups, balanced genders, mixed races. many seemed there for neighborhood emergency teams. the airwaves are dead most of the time i've turned the rig on, except during the net hour. i feared exactly what you've heard but thankfully haven't run into it. yet.
i had drifted away from sabrina over the years but she just cut me off and slid back into my lane
i am the only person you know who's seen her live. any 'you' 😛
it seems to me that flying drones into trees would be a massively expensive hobby
wth 'taylor's version'? like there was an o.g. eras tour that made money for scooter?
The last show of hers that I saw was on the Dedicated tour in 2018. She played in San Francisco during Pride Week and worked it perfectly. My +1 was out of town and that was likely for the best. It ended up being the gayest show I've seen, and I've seen Kylie six times.

OSM has a lot more data inside than the website shows - in dense shopping areas you can't zoom in far enough to see all the POIs, much less business names.
I've read before that using cached previews was done to stay accessible to less-powerful mobile devices, which would have smaller CPUs that would be taxed by rendering the native vector data. I view it as a branding disadvantage that OSM appears, from desktops, to have less info than alternatives. But that's a battle that's been had many times before, one might as well argue over paper vs plastic.
Welcome! I'm a new amateur in the States. Like you, I peek in here and find that at the moment, it doesn't take long. The frog boil has worked quite well in Reddit; the frogs are staying in their pots even as enshittification becomes obvious (pro tip, it's spelled IPO). Unlike you, I'm new enough that I have nothing worthwhile to contribute yet.
As for Mastodon, I'm on an instance with a 5k character limit. Some instances run modified versions known as glitch or hometown, which allow the admin to set a limit (well) above 500. I didn't find a handy list of these easily, but a little searching in google or r/Mastodon may turn up ideas.
i hadn't realized that the ist's were separate
I'm torn, because on the one hand, yes! — the hour I spent figuring out which PGP XEP was the right one is an hour I won't get back. But, "only the XEPs you need to implement for a modern messaging application, ignoring historical cruft and excessive backwards-compatibility" sounds so much like the beginning of an extend-and-extinguish cycle.
