I haven’t had much time to post because the last 3 months have been absolutely wild in terms of workload. But I’m very excited about how this platform is growing.
@Gargron but then when you have the time, there is this super nice feeling of using the stuff you built to actually post. This is a great feeling! And it never get old for me.
@Gargron If the whole thing doesn't continue to grow in terms of exclusion & differentiation from other opinions, then I'm happy to agree with you! @Gargron Wenn das Ganze nicht weiter wächst an Ausgrenzung & Abgrenzung von anderen Meinungen, dann bin ich gerne deiner Ansicht! @Gargron
@Gargron thank you for all you do. You and Mastodon have done well. There is lots more work ahead, but you are of course well aware of it.
Please look after yourself and your team, and make sure everyone is in good mental and physical health. That is 100x more important than any single Mastodon work item could ever be.
@Gargron This is a surprise. I have been here for more than three years. I posted here three times more during the last three months than during the previous three years.
Eugen has been very busy helping #JohnMastodon train and level up his powers after the recent influx of new members, but soon John will be strong enough to continue as planned.
@Gargron Yes it is very pleasant but in some ways a bit too pleasant (or quiet)... Herein lies my major concern - I haven't done any of my own posts for a while as it has felt a bit like talking to myself (especially when not boosted). Some sort of easily accessible VIEW COUNT would resolve or confirm my concerns.. Cheers and Good luck
I heard there are plans to make the maximum number of characters in a posting configurable via the admin console (rather than editing individual files).
@Gargron is there a way to schedule mutes for specific people on specific days?
I’d hate to mute #Caturday posts from everyone- just those individuals who find time to machine-gun #spam a timeline with more than- say 3- 4- even 5 cat pics at a time.
Like what you did yesterday.
You don’t need to post them all. Leave some for other people to post
@Gargron thank you for being so passionate and motivated about Mastodon.
Allow me an additional personal note: I had an ... interesting ... evening thanks to your boost. It was funny to see how a toot reaches people and how much difference boosts make, how important they are. So thank you very much.
@Gargron you can and should feel very proud. It is a huge push forward and Mastodon is a great door opener for the idea of the fediverse. Looking forward to seeing it evolve!
