@Gargron I originally read CDN to mean Canadian. 😝

@Gargron Mastodon as a Corporation Destroyer Network

@Gargron you have the approval of Jane.

@Gargron I joined yesterday too. The Elon news was really just the straw. It’s hard to know if I’ll keep using Mastodon, but it’s worth trying to get over the learning curve of walled garden to whatever the hell a fediverse is.

@Gargron how is the projected economics of scale? Can the current donations handle a large influx of video and photo posting users? Thinking about storage and bandwidth costs if things get even more popular…

@Gargron unfortunately that won't bring the best kine of users here …

@Gargron If I had know there is no Android app, not sure if I would have joined. But hey, hurry up! 🙂

We’re going to try to hurry and release the Android app as soon as possible. And yes, we’ll try to publish it on @fdroidorg as well.

@Gargron been using the beta for a few days. it's good! i'm sure this will make introducing mastodon to new users really easy.

@Gargron I'd like to see less "designing the perfect system for one day maybe" and more adoption of Matrix and Mastodon as "the best options available today"

People will agree and say "Things should be distributed" on their Twitter account or on Discord but they won't say "...but right now, today, you can go and create an account on Mastodon."

@Gargron the aim of BlueSky seems to be to create a decentralized, federated social network that is controlled and monetized by a single entity.

In other words, to square a circle.

So this is going exactly as well as could be expected. 😉

@Gargron Congrats! It’s a very well done app. I’m using it now 😀

@Gargron
Well done!! Great app indeed. Also currently using it!

@Gargron It's better than Earl Grey, or so my taste buds tell me.

@Gargron my favorite is Irish Breakfast Tea (there's no such thing except to market tea to Americans)

@Gargron Wonder if one can have German Breakfast Tea in the UK?

@Gargron you can do it! :blobcatfingerguns:

@Gargron you're doing amazing sweetie

@Gargron Oh, btw, do you guys plan distributing the Android app on F-Droid?

@Gargron Might be worth noting than compiling C++ extensions for Ruby 3.0.x fails on musl-based systems: https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17788

(For now I maintain a simple patch to backport the fix: https://github.com/Wonderfall/docker-mastodon/blob/master/ruby-hotfix.patch)

Thanks for the work. :)

@Gargron Didn't it just release minutes ago?😋

@Gargron really not a big fan of this. There seems to be a lot of wasted space

We're at 664 ratings across all countries. Would be nice to get that into 5 digits too...

33k updates!

@Gargron Congrats on the new release!

@Gargron it definitely the best, only thing lacking IMHO is a fed timeline.

Since this is a SwiftUI, any plans to bring it to mac as well? All the others apps, they are electron, and then there is Mastonaut, but you can’t post toots longer than 500 even if your server allows for more.

@Gargron Are there any plans to implement local/federated timelines in the future?

@Gargron you mean publishing an App on the App Store?

@Gargron No but I will try and review the App right now Eugen.

@gargron AFAIK WhatsApp does not use standard XMPP or OMEMO so it will not work out of the box with open federation XMPP.

@Gargron Haha! Only by court I think.

@Gargron Something like that :)

But it'll take time: first the DMA needs to be voted (2022), then enter into force (2023), then the Commission needs to designate the gatekeepers (2023), and then they have four years before the full #interoperability obligation incl group chats applies (2027).

Thank you big tech industry lobbying.

@Gargron received it and the UI now looks great on iPad. Fills the screen nicely.

@Gargron “You can now connect to .onion servers when using Orbot”. Awesome!! Thank you.

Should we expect an .onion address for mastodon.online soon then? 😛

@Gargron: Would be nice if incorporate quick link previews while posting.

@Gargron Google does weird things with HTML just as a rule. Every page has at least one "What? Why would you have it like that?" bit of markup.

@Gargron trick question. its ukraine

@Gargron Putting baked beans in things that should not have baked beans in them: the Netflix original!

@Gargron Is "troll physics" still relevant? I'd personally be okay with a comedy where the protagonist does that.

It gets worse. Here's a list of related open-source "performances": https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1H3xPB4PgWeFcHjZ7NOPtrcya_Ua4jUolWm-7z9-jSpQ/htmlview#
