People on Mastodon: I don't get why more people don't join the platform. We are very relatable.

Top post on Mastodon: If you spend 72 hours reprogramming the 1982 Commodore 64 computer using a long-forgotten latin coding language, you can make it display a pop-up window that you would typically only see on the original 1984 Apple Macintosh. Go ahead and try it for yourself.

Hey! We are not all like that.
BTW, do you know you can run your own instance with GoToSocial, it's very lightweight and you can set it up easily by command line on a VPS, just remember to close all unnecessary ports so you don't get hacked, also some updates break the database so make constant backups and obviously have fun!

\j is the same as \s were \s is sarcasm and \j is joke, used to add context to some phrase expressing it's a joke and not a serious affirmation.
