   @astrojuanlu @rysiek lol! @rysiek that article is written by someone who takes them self waay too serious. Djeez. 😅  “I registered on the upstart social media platform using, as I always do, my full name: "LanceUlanoff" to protect it from potential social media identity poachers (they're everywhere).” 🤣  @rysiek love how this guy keeps looking directly at the concept of instances and refuses to understand its the entire point   @rysiek I feel like William Shatner's ability to use anything is a bad metric of its usefulness 😂 @rysiek Pretty sure "not being found online by William Shatner" is a good thing. @rysiek honestly, from what I understand about the 2017 version of Mastodon, this is a pretty solid take. Mastodon has matured a LOT since then. The federation clearly tripped him up quite a bit, but I took a lot of the article as constructive criticism at worst. Either way, it's come very far. I still hate "toots", though. That's one of the single worst things about this platform. Can we just come up with a different name???  Hmm, instead of toots: tells The possibilities are almost endless :)  @rysiek even better this sweet moment passed unmarked https://mastodon.social/users/Gargron/statuses/100356478758086709  “Twitter has grown about all it ever will and is struggling to please investors and drag its stock price back up out of the basement. *hooks thumbs in suspenders and gently whistles* yep, I remember when they said that vaudeville was dead! Just you wait, the new generation will go ape for tumblin’!  @rysiek ...the lack of reading of any of the extremely basic information about Mastodon that was, I'm pretty sure, /on/ the sign-up page he used, it's truly impressive. @rysiek *scrolls down to his bio* wait how the tusk do you have these roles and this experience without knowing what open-source software is? @rysiek I... Okay, I know this was years ago, but I'm pretty sure the bio is from back then, and I... it's impressive in the worst way?   @rysiek@mstdn.social this article gives me the same vibes as that one cuphead review |
