Designer & web developer for hire. I tackle complex concepts and make them easy to understand.
I am moving to https://toot.cafe/@DawnPaladin. Thanks to icos for introducing me to the fediverse. 😃
@maloki (3) Instead of selling it as "a federated social network" (too vague & complex for most people), I would like to call #Mastodon as "the social network that doesn't go away by a company's whim" or "the social network as resilient as a real human language" or "the network that is governed by its users". You know, *benefits* of federation instead of the name "federated" itself.

Um, okay, one last bit of asking for help. I need work. I stand to lose my job in two weeks, I've done everything I can and have been working my ass off, but I still don't think I'll get off my PiP (Personal Improvement Plan). Does anyone know of dev jobs near Portland? I'll even take any jobs near Seattle. I've worked as associate dev for almost 4 years now and have been working since I've been 14. If anyone can help me secure an interview or has connections I'd be so thankful

please boost

Is there a reason why there's no public timeline on mastodon instances? It seems like it would make a lot of sense to show the first-time visitors the list of recent community posts.

#mastodon #instances #features

1. Get idea for a cool web app
2. Start building it
3. Stop building it and check to see if someone's built it already
4. Bask in that other person's success without doing any of the work :smile:

Today's trip through this familiar process brought me to http://www.worldometers.info!

This squirrel is going full Mission Impossible to get into our bird feeder. I want to get him a climbing harness and a little helmet.

@u2764 @brunodias It seems like a lot of debate surrounds which #Mastodon features do and don't get implemented. Is there a public roadmap for that? Is there a guidance council? Or is it just whatever Gargron implements/merges? Who is the gatekeeper?
A little narrative adds a lot, even to a Rube Goldberg machine. https://youtu.be/trDnp3dWlXk?t=21s
I'm having a lot of fun with the new #LeagueOfLegends support champ Rakan. Very mobile, good healer, and if you're feeling brash he can make The Plays. And his personality is really fun. Anybody play? #videogames
