You won't catch me upgrading to Windows 11... I'll be using 8.1 until it's obsolete and perhaps even after.

@Gargron Over at where I work, at least one of our computers still has W7. (I think there's also one or two W8.1 computers there too.)

I really like the new dark mode colors in the iOS app (latest TestFlight build). Have never been much of a fan of #000000 in system apps.

@Gargron am I missing something? I’m on the recent Mastodon TestFlight but I don’t see true black as an option?

Eugen Rochko

Do you play Nice Dream by Radiohead with the high string tuned to B or A?

gravely

@Gargron i didn't know any parts of it had an altered tuning

Just to confirm, there's no way to get Universal Links on #iOS working with a decentralized platform, right? Seems like it'd require hard-coding all possible domains into the app.

@Gargron home assistant uses a redirect proxy but otherwise i’m not sure it’s possible my.home-assistant.io/faq/

@Gargron This reminds me: would it be possible that the app is banned from the store because of some posts (from, say, "rogue" instances) being reported to Apple? This happened with some other fedi apps on Android iirc.

Moritz Dietz

@Gargron couldn’t you do something like matrix.to kind of links for mastodon?

Eugen Rochko

I am feeling absolutely fine but every person I've talked to (incl. social media) is expecting me to feel sick after the second vaccine so if I wasn't gonna feel anything I'm afraid now I might get it psychosomatically

@Gargron I had a day of full body aches that made it hard to get out of bed. Recovered pretty quick after tho.

@Gargron congrats. I plan on making wearing a mask in public a part of permanent habit.

clacke: looking for something 🇸🇪🇭🇰💙💛
Before my first shot I started developing a sweat and a sense of fever half an hour before I even got the shot, haha
Eugen Rochko

Are there any Siri Shortcuts you wish there were in the iOS app? Like presumably "New post" is one. Anything else?

@Gargron
"Any recent toot from X"
"Purge history"
"Refresh now"
"Austracize the heretics and let them fall in an abyss of despair and silence" (close the app)

@Gargron delete my last toot. For those times you need to quickly remove a bad toot

There seems to be a GTA 5 game mod, or something, that seems to make HTTP requests directly to mastodon.social, with insane frequency. Intentional or not, it's basically a DDoS. The requests used to come with HTTP referrer "nui-game-internal" but I just found they switched their user agent to mask as a browser.

@Gargron hey man, i'm not gonna read all this, but hope you're doing well

MrClon

@Gargron it's worse then DDoS, it's shitty code

Iron Bug
@Gargron that's weird. I haven't seen such requests on my servers. do they send them to mastodon.social only?

Reminder that if you run an account of any public interest and want to get more followers you should go into "Edit profile" and check "Suggest account to others"

Jeena

@Gargron will it be suggested cross instances?

Terci

@Gargron Thanks for the tip. I personally don't want more attention, so it's nice to tell the algorithm "do not perceive me"

Eugen Rochko

It's possible that mastodon.social is experiencing a bit more action than it has for a while, I'm seeing a more or less consistent 480 req/s of traffic

Henderson, o São

@Gargron It's cold in Brazil and Brazilians don't stop complaining about it. That's why.

Deadly Headshot

@Gargron It seems to have got to the point where many images aren't loading?

Eugen Rochko

Oh no, I'm going to have to create a whole new website for the app and then put the form there, won't I...

😩

Eugen Rochko

It is quite encouraging to look through the TestFlight feedback even though it's all bugs it's good that we're finding them now

Eugen Rochko

I think it's a hundred people testing the app now

Emma H :blobcatcoffee:

@Gargron any particular style or template do you want us to use from the app?

Eugen Rochko

Do you know how the Ubuntu Terminal app is really smart about what text to select when you double-click? Is there a way to get that behaviour on #MacOS?

Mac terminal simply selects the "word" on which you double click, exactly the same as regular native text fields do.

The blin cat was a perfect image but now people are just using a photoshopped variant that removes all mystery from the cats expression, it’s so disappointing

Eugen Rochko

I don't think that new #RickAndMorty episode made me laugh once, the entire time I thought "Oh not this again"

Someone :suckless:

@Gargron New episodes started dropping? I should watch it tommorow.

verbumfeit

@Gargron same, but then chuckled when I saw a police car in the street

Eugen Rochko

Thinking about it, maybe I should have created a mailing list for people to be notified when the app gets released all that time ago.

Maybe I should still do that now..? I'm not sure how long it's going to be in beta, we're still fixing some bugs.

Geotechland

@Gargron Are users able to download a beta version of the app and help test it out?

Eugen Rochko

I was looking for an open-source mailing list server and found listmonk. I guess now I need to design a small form and put it inside the blog post about the iOS app or something...

healyn

@Gargron maybe you should worry less about fixing the bugs, and worry more about the bugs fixing you, pal
