Hm, I'd want to integrate a user count graph into joinmastodon.org somehow, but it's not as easy as it sounds. I don't think there's anywhere to get the data from programmatically. I'd have to build a stats aggregator myself...

If I added a testimonial section to joinmastodon.org, what would you say? Please only reply if you're OK with me using your response with your username and avatar on joinmastodon.org*

@Gargron I wanted a place that I could build a community without the firehose of larger social networks. We can chat about our experiences as queer folks in tech among like-minded individuals.

@Gargron you might have to figure a few legal things out just in case if someone feels like suing you even though they gave consent

Crossed over 10,000 commits in the Mastodon source code repository...

@Gargron How hard (if at all possible) would it be to implement a mastodon server using Erlang/Elixir? Any idea?

I'm just thinking about this blog post I wrote in 2018. Because even when Twitter makes a good decision, the first sentence comes to mind: Why does the entire world have to wait on the CEO of one US company to make a decision?

@Gargron Ironically, the Trump ban is exactly what inspired me to look around on Mastodon again after a long time, even though I agree with the ban 100%.

Callous Internet Man

@Gargron Or worse, why does no one question why they're making this decision *right now* when it's popular?

Somian

@Gargron because now they donโ€™t need to fear repercussions from the trump administration. Itโ€™s all about appeasement.

@Gargron 4 years? For what? I'm curious about what you mean by that?

Dawn Tรฅke ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ

@Gargron More like 13 if we're going back to when it started to become this kind of a problem, but yeah. Yay, but come the fuck on taking this long.

I don't really like Signal. I don't like Telegram either. Wire is acceptable, but also clunky. It kinda sucks that people have to basically choose and commit to one app with all of their contacts now, if IM apps were federated like e-mail and Mastodon you could just keep talking to your friends from wherever.

@Gargron IM apps should be federated atleast. If Signal could support Matrix, it would be great...

crushfuckkcreate

@Gargron Why don't you like Signal? Does Wire still excist? I think i used that one many years ago. Looked amazing!

IconIX

@Gargron matrix.org is federated with many apps to choose from based on your preferences

@Gargron The John carpenter version is awesome. Keeps you on the edge of your seat

@Gargron The original? Or the one with Kurt Russell? :) I quite like that one. :)

@Gargron Come to think of it, it's a great way for women to stream without getting judged for appearance.

Showing a Borat in Cyberpunk meme to someone who has not seen Borat or Cyberpunk

I rewatched it because it popped up on Netflix. I laughed like 3 times in total, and it was decidedly not when they were talking about weed or cum.

@Gargron Coked up Michael Cera was the best part in my opinion

Eugen Rochko

Not setting an alarm that cuts my sleep short by about 4 hours would probably be a good start to me not feeling tired and sleepy all the time but alas.
