@Gargron no way, you play dota :o

@Gargron OG has always been my favorite team since Ti8

@Gargron Didn't know you play DOTA2 too😮

@Gargron https://www.twitch.tv/esl_dota2

It’s starting! #Dota2 #BerlinMajor

@Gargron I didn’t know you watch #Dota2! Which team are you rooting for?

@Gargron
I have not seen too much. And if I find something I simply block them...

Now my Fakebook group page keeps getting spammed but I run some filters and that helps.

@Gargron Check Elons closet …… that shady bastard !!

@Gargron @mattferrell based

@Gargron @mattferrell when people know the level of censorship here which exceeds that of Twitter, they simply walk away toward Twitter or don't come here in the first place.

@Gargron @mattferrell last activity more than month ago? WELCUM

@Gargron opt in allow quote tooting would be a huge improvement for Mastodon

@Gargron @jlori love the cover 🤩

@Gargron Mastodon should have tendencies to choose depending on the country you choose

@Gargron @arstechnica well I think anyone can impersonate by placing that rel='me'. Consider what if I just get myself a domain like thisiselonmusk.com and put rel=me there. Will I become Elon Musk?

@Gargron @arstechnica

A statement from Ars on this is here:

@Gargron @arstechnica Verification remains very tricky to get working. Eventually it happened for our @okaphone account. But right now I'm struggling with this account.

The back link has been in place for about a day (before I tried). I've been clearing caches, logging out and in, modifying my setting in various ways, changing the URL, waiting, tried a-tag and link-tag... but sofar no luck.

Maybe you guys should do some testing on this important functionality and make it a bit more reliable. 🤔

Earlier today mastodon.social has been upgraded to a nightly build too. Shout out to our DevOps! Lots of UX improvements now live.

@Gargron Que has hecho amigo? ay ayyyyy!!!

@Gargron Thanks a lot!

@Gargron thanks! Never seen his stuff before but it's amazing

@Gargron Tom Cardy is a blessing to us

@Gargron bluesky social will also make it more popular.

@Gargron twitter became unstable enough that people start usin alternatives more and more
also the deactivation of the free twitter API helped with that i would guess
#birdsite #TwitterTakeover

@Gargron you kidding me. Isn't #Mastodon supposed to have a 10M users????

@Gargron Let our third-party applications help you

@Gargron Hi! Do you have any plans to create a normal desktop client in any feasible future? :) Mobile apps are great (and even there are cool alternatives like Ice Cubes) but no good app for desktops… :( everything that tries to pack web into an electron (or similar) — em.. Let’s say gently — doesn’t suit for me well :)

@Gargron Hi Eugen, could you create a 'For You' page and set it as the default homepage, similar to how Twitter does it? This way, people can effortlessly discover new posts and users. Overall, it would be great if you could incorporate the same user interface and discoverability features from Twitter into Mastodon.

@Gargron I think your replies there are not great. 😢

You and Mastodon GmbH benefit massively from the immense amount of work that the wider fediverse community does.

While I appreciate the perspective that the software != the community, I respectfully disagree. The decisions for the software impact the community, as we heard so profoundly at the Black Twitter Summit. The concern I have is that you often conflate the software and the community when it suits, but reject it when it doesn't.

@Gargron sounds interesting!

@Gargron I need ALL OF IT! I know this even before seeing it.

@Gargron Don’t forget a Mastodon Airways shirt.

@Gargron I still need to get into it. For some reason I just discovered Virus only now, instead of a few years ago...
But it's great Haken as usual 🤟

@Gargron #Haken is amazing! Didn't know about their new album! Listening to it right now, and you're absolutely right, #Fauna is amazing!

@Gargron
As we they in Germany: Kannste haken! 😉

@Gargron Mazel Tov!!

@Gargron congratulations!

@Gargron May you have many happy years together!

@Gargron congratulations! I hope it’s full of love, fantastic memories and enriches you’re life beyond all expectations. 🍻

@Gargron Congratulations friend

@Gargron CONGRATULATIONS!!

@Gargron Is he getting paid? :)

@Gargron Hello My name is Katherina Dutchke of German nationality but currently hospitalized in France because of my health

@Gargron rooting you

@Gargron
Wish I shared your optimism.

Meta are E.E.E. to the extreme. Any innovation that gains traction in any social media platform is immediately cloned by Meta to stamp out the pesky competition before it can get a toehold.

That’s all AP is to them, pesky competition that needs to be wiped out.

@Gargron I'm not super smart with all of this. Does Meta using ActivityPub mean their new system will link in with Mastodon the way other actual Mastodon servers will? Or will it not work with Mastodon? Or? How will this work?

@Gargron This is rather completely false and I unfortunately can't agree with you. Meta/Facebook has not changed at all. They still are the same old privacy-invasive Big Tech company from many years ago that have not learned anything from their terrible past. You are fooling yourself by welcoming them. They are going to ruin the Fediverse as we know it.

Reconsider your decision, as you are making a terrible mistake.

@Gargron

ok… maybe i shouldn't judge you, these posts really are from the 2010s?

@Gargron oh man, popping on some Strapping Young Lad in solidarity 🤘🏼

@Gargron one of my favorite live acts, enjoy!

@Gargron someone must’ve been really upset by my post after today’s outage at the bird app.

@Gargron Is mastodon.social under attack again? The search function is not working for me.

@Gargron

Does it waddle and quack like the RU mafia state?

And they thought turning twtr into their propaganda and terrorist mush via their psycho puppet was going to be enough.
