@darius I genuinely hate that they’re called toots but I also don’t ever want it to change because, what a choice.

@darius @ja2ke masto.host surprise upgraded us to 4.01 and it's all "Publish" now.

@danhon @ja2ke I think they went with "publish" as the verb and "post" as the noun. Fair but also I like my little "Post!" button in Hometown

Still waiting for "Carnyx," the ancient boar-head trombone based social media platform:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnyx

The ancient carnyx was a wind instrument of the Iron Age Celts, used between c. 200 BC and c. AD 200. It was a type of bronze trumpet with an elongated S shape, held so that the long straight central portion was vertical and the short mouthpiece end section and the much wider bell were horizontal in opposed directions. The bell was styled in the shape of an open-mouthed boar's, or other animal's, head.

@darius @danhon @ja2ke hopefully this is just an episode that gets forgotten, to be remembered by once ultra-hip 45 year old gen-zers as a fond collective hallucination. Like the original Twitter logo!

The original Twttr logo, a horrible green abomination of 90s rave bubble typography with a ... Burst? Dribble? Who can say really? exploding from the side of the "r" like some half-baked experiment with Kai's Power Tools, 10 years after the plugin had faded from even the most hard-core dot-com boomer's memory.
