Im interested in how different Fediverse software handles links containing hashtags. How this is presented depends on your server and front end software. Please share and check all that apply, and let me know in the comments. The second hashtag is enclosed in a link to a harmless page.

You know what time it is! It's Kirby gets so annoyed that they spend too much time with Firefox Dev Tools and uBlock Origin!

! Block Discord monetization shit
discord.com##div:has(> li[class^="channel"]:has-text(Shop))
discord.com##li:has(> li[class^="channel"]:has-text(Shop))
! sometimes it's a `li` and sometimes it's a `div` wtf
discord.com##li[class^="channel"]:has-text(Nitro)
! (poorly) hide Discord's hover menu
discord.com##div[class^=hoverBarButton]

The last one leaves a tiny empty bubble floating, but I can't be arsed to dig into the morass (emphasis on ass) that is the modern web any more today.

#a11y (#accessibility) tip: When using hashtags, use initial caps for each word. For example, #ThisIsAHashtag, not #thisisahashtag.

This not only makes it easier for sighted folks to read the hashtags, but each word is pronounced by screen readers (used mostly by those who are blind).

This is really important when typing a new hashtag because the various social media platforms "remember" what was entered first. For example, when I type #DogsOfMastodon, Mastodon wants me to use #dogsofmastodon.

Intersex.social Admin TeamJun 1, 2024

Welcome to intersex.social! Our goals are to provide a safe space for intersex people on the fediverse, and to grow community for intersex people on the fediverse.

💜 Ground truths 💜

1. Intersex people (as a community) are the authorities on what intersex is and who is/isn’t intersex.Doctors and biomedical researchers can provide valuable knowledge, but are not the authorities on deciding who belongs. 2. The intersex community broadly and unanimously agrees that hyperandrogenism attributed to PCOS is an intersex variation. We similarly welcome people with Poland syndrome.3. Intersex people can have any gender. Some intersex people are trans, but most are not. Some intersex people feel “cis” and “trans” are too simplistic for our experiences and instead prefer intersex-specific terminology such as ipsogender (your gender is same as AGAB), ultergender (your gender is different than AGAB), and intergender (your gender is affected by being intersex).4. You cannot transition to become intersex.You can transition to having mixed sex characteristics, for which the terms “altersex” and “Salmacian” exist.5. The term h*rmaphrodite is an intersexist slur. We are agnostic on whether the term should be reclaimed. Either way, perisex (non-intersex) people should be avoiding it.

📣 Server rules 📣1. Be kind. Act in good faith to other users.In the words of Maya Angelou: “'Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.”2. Be inclusive. Our goal is to provide a safe space for intersex people of all genders, gender modalities, sexual orientations, races/ethnicities, disabilities, and socioeconomic classes. Transphobes (including TERFS and “gender criticals”) are not welcome, and will be banned.3. Flag common triggers with content warnings, such as by a text warning, the "hide post" feature, and/or the "mark as sensitive" feature.- IGM (intersex/infant genital mutilation)
- Medical violence, forced “treatment”
- Sexual violence4. Accessibility is a communal effort.Provide alt-text to images, write hashtags in camel case (e.g. #ThisIsAHashtag), provide trigger/content warnings.5. No harassment.This includes actions such as deliberate intimidation, stalking, sustained disruption, unwelcome sexual attention, deliberate and repeated misgendering, and advocating for any of this behaviour.6. No porn.While we don’t want to give a sex-negative-vibe, the moderation team is not mentally/emotionally prepared to moderate pornographic content.7. Notify the moderators.This is an actively moderated instance and we want to ensure a safe environment for you!


🐌 Other server policies 🐌
1. We have daily backups set up on this server, should anything unforeseen happen.

2. While we hope to keep this server running for many years to come, we pledge to provide at least three months notice if the server needs to close.

If you don’t hear back on a (fiction or poetry) submission, do you have a rule of thumb for how many times you’ll query before giving up and submitting somewhere else? #ThisIsAHashtag

Are we still doing stories one post at a time? Is that a thing in fediworld?

... If it is, should I roll up a new account for that? 🤔

It's important to remember that one of every two Americans is half. But also don't forget that two out of one is too many.
