Jumping through random fedi servers i found this gem of masto domain names — tacobelllabs.net
Having 3 consecutive ‘L’s in the name gives more points for esotericism.

Talk python podcast did a really good episode on mastodon for tech people. It’s less about software and more about finding your community.
I found some people who were here for a while, that i didn’t know they were here.
To give more context: for me, Mastodon lost its luster when my wife stopped using it.
She was on "weird Mastodon." Her entire goal was to make funny jokes and boost and riff on other people's funny jokes. Mastodon for her was sheer joy.
She got driven off the platform by the replies. (She is a woman on the internet, after all.) Weird sexual innuendo, "well actually"s, and people not getting the joke. Plus the funny people left. It became un-fun for her.
while i'm on the topic of noise controls, Mastodon issue #8565 is the one for adding a "disable replies to this post" feature, another piece of UX that Twitter added and improved the user experience thereby. this issue has been open since 2018. there are a lot of loud "debate me" bros in the comments on that issue, insisting that everyone should be forced to allow them to sealion freely.
please show this issue some love as well. and by "show it some love" i mean go get a GitHub account and thumbs-up it, reply with your use cases, arguments in favor, etc.
having been a Mastodon issue tracker watcher for a bit, that's of course no guarantee that Website Boy or another core contrib will try to fix this, but it's at least a weak signal of user interest to both Mastodon devs and devs of other Fediverse projects (there's a lot of cross-linking between issue trackers when people are deciding how to build something and how to make it broadly compatible).
