Recently I read a post by some jackhole techbro who wants a default automatic feed algorithm here just like Big Social™.

We make Mastodon awesome by following people and boosting what we find meaningful, significant or just cool. That's how it works.

Let's keep making friends. Let's keep sharing. Let's keep Mastodon alive. Together. 💖

Please boost this poll, I'm doing a serious survey.

Does Yuri impact code quality?

Again, I'm being serious.

(For anyone not aware of Yuri, which I highly doubt since we're on Fedi: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri_(genre))

Plasma 6.6 is now live!

In Plasma 6.6, Spectacle can read texts from screenshots; we trial-run our very own on-screen keyboard for touchscreens; and we have a new first-time wizard that let's users configure their passwords, timezones, keyboard and networks, on preinstalled systems; among many, many more marvelous things.
