I'm still confused why they show video adverts for apprenticeship programs at Wessex Water (a regional British utility company) on the KLIA Ekspres train in Kuala Lumpur.

It seems to me that an interesting evolution of mastodon would be to incorporate aliases more closely, so that the toot appears to come from the alias.
Of course there are some abuse vectors here, but it may be possible to mitigate these by combining aliases with verification in some way?
So, it appears that, as Mastodon uses Webfinger, it is possible to create a top-level alias that resolves to your actual instance-specific ID.
I wonder how integrated this is with Mastodon. Could I, for instance, tell my current server that I'm changing to a new server and give it the alias instead of the new address?
Of course, in all toots, it will be the local server address that shows up, so organic follows will be to that address.
@SolusSpider toot toot!
Santa ClausOh dear. I've just been informed that collecting the names of every person on the planet for my naughty and nice lists is, and I quote, “a significant and wholly irresponsible breach of #GDPR “.
I'm going to hand out about 8 billion consent forms soon. If you could all get them back to me ASAP that would be appreciated.

Sporiff 📧The British media are disgustingly dishonest when it comes to matters of industrial action.
In a discussion about Apple's fees on developers for the privilege of being to distribute software on Mac OS, someone said:
"I object to paying taxes for roads I don’t drive on. But, alas, I play the game for a smoother experience"
followed by:
"I’m not benefited by the taxes that pay for the roads I don’t use"
I pointed out: "If you have ever used a bus or taxi, had a delivery, or expected emergency services to reach you if you need them, you have benefitted."
So, it seems the server I randomly chose 4 or so years ago isn't the best for a number of reasons. So I will probably be moving when I eventually decide where to.
