everyone knows the real meme of mastodon is being nice, and good

Just watched #FakeBritain

Makes me laugh when they say a lot of fakes come from China, after all, a lot of proper, authentic products also come from China. More than likely from the factory, just down the road, if not the very same factory, just a different department.

The bird just decided to give Mastodon another boost. They are deleting tweets from people complaining about #United. https://thenextweb.com/twitter/2017/04/11/twitter-delete-united-airlines-tweets/#.tnw_YGUEpwwV

seeing hot takes about how french/english mastodon should be separated and like

do we really have to say that segregation is a bad thing in tyool 2017

Think of the reaction to the recent action in Syria... All of the media suddenly become enthralled by pictures of missiles... What will the President take from that? That military attacks make him popular.

And so what's the likely outcome? More military attacks.

And a more popular President.

And most Americans can't even see that.

I just wrote a guide on how to deploy Mastodon on Digital Ocean:

I hope you guys will find it useful!

Let me know if you have any questions/suggestions. I'll be happy to help, or clarify things that are unclear.

There once was a man known as Rick
Never giving you up was his shtick
He'd never desert you
Or tell lies and hurt you
When misleading links you would click

Everyone - boosting on Masto is even more important than RTing on birdsite because some people will otherwise NEVER run into each other because they're on different instances! Make sure to boost anyone you think is cool!

Seriously. The personal identity as brand world developed by FB and BirbSite has disadvantaged minority communities.

Standard pic and name is simply a way to broadcast your age, gender, race, and often religion. Wonder why your timeline is full of cis white dudes? One big reason is because people that didn't want to be judged by pic an name got docked heavily for it by the platform.

So, roll a unknown furry.
Follow a unknown furry.

It's okay here.

"And then the murders began"

actual discussion I just had here, paraphrased:

me: "gif avatars make me get motion sickness, and are dangerous for people with epilepsy"

them:"Just write a browser plugin to disable them, it's your fault you have a problem, you shouldn't be pushing for it to bee disabled for everyone"

yeah fuck that, I'm going back to twitter, at least there the rude randos *don't* have animated avatars.

another bright day of slowly building an organic consensus of new norms and behaviors while staying sensitive to those of the pre-existing community
