She smashesI’m not looking to join blue sky yet for my own reasons but also this is accurate plus the way black folks were first treated here by some of the biggest instances explain the appeal.
Even I, as a terminally online person, still couldn’t engage with mastodon in any meaningful way till I got @ivory because the out of the box UX is so shoddy.
Just Boby@dbsmasher @ivory hah! Yeah, same, but I ditched the official app very quick coz it was annoying and used Metatext (that’s is really good, btw but th developer not gonna update it anymore) -then ivory came.
Mike Schnier@boby_biq @dbsmasher @ivory I complained about the official iPhone app and was scolded that there was no official app*. We’ve always been at war with Oceania.
*It’s literally called “Official iOS app for Mastodon” on GitHub.
@mikeschnier lol, akshuallyyyyyyyyyy.. 🤣 ah yes.
I had to force myself to ignore the scolding - I didn’t necessarily got scolded (not much, anyway) but generally started to block ppl who are doing this weird “well, actually” thing.life is short.
That’s said: I like mastodon/fediverse a lot, it started to “work” for me and im happy.
Even started to think of having my own personal server, haha.
@mikeschnier OMG you work for Toon Boom? Is that the software that was called Toonz before? I worked with that 100years ago!
@mikeschnier OR my memories have..holes.. and I’m mixing/misremembering stuff - not unusual for me 🙈
@boby_biq Close! We make Harmony and Storyboard Pro. Toonz is a competitor.
@mikeschnier lol. Sorry, as I said, it’s been a while.. *cough* more than 20yrs..* cough*
