excellent to see that making it more than `apk del nano` to remove it from your standard installation of your distro still turns away these people with zero effort https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1dvqwg7/a_proposition_to_the_community_to_program_and/
@q66 I did try this!
@flookerton apk add '!base-full-misc'
@q66 for some reason the instance doesnt show the constructive criticism i made later in regards to that (I rarely use mastodon) , but yeah you are correct.

@flookerton the point is to provide a default that will satisfy the vast majority of users without having to tinker further, otherwise we get people who don't really know what they are doing coming in and trying strange things

the base-full package is intentionally set up in a modular way so that some (or even all) components can be omitted as needed, there are no hard deps so one gets all the control they want, it's just done in a way that you really have to declare that you want it that way

@flookerton i'm aware that the documentation for it is not the best right now but that's what you can expect from a distro in this stage of development

also the reason your posts are getting hidden is that a lot of instances mute mastodon.social (including mine) due to influx of spam accounts from there

you'll encounter the same thing with many others so i suggest finding a better instance
