I dunno, moving between servers for what could end being umpteen numbers of reasons is a carousel I'd rather not get on.

I cannot figure out for the life of me why I'm suddenly addicted to the @somafm #Vaporwave channel...

And while I'm on the topic, a) #SomaFM is amazing, and b) they are ad-free and supported solely by donations. And just like your Fediverse instance, they live and die by those donations, so if you're a listener, or you just love their ethos and want to preserve free, high quality, well-curated internet radio, please support them!

@icastico @vinylrecords was lucky enough to see AEoC around 1980 in Minneapolis. It was roughly the time of the "Full Force" ECM album as I remember. Great concert. #jazz #freejazz

What do we as the fediverse community need to accomplish in order to scale by 10x or 100x?

After conversations with so, so many amazing people working to make this happen, I took a shot at making a list.

I hope it's a useful resource for people looking to get involved, and also to promote discussion and collaboration.

@nafnlaus @jamesbritton Agreed. but if you look at any of the youtube videos that have come out in the last 24 hours where the #supercharger #magicdock is available and look at the comments, only #tesla puts it in the "right place" according to many of their owners. they say other manufacturers should conform; a little late for that.

the issue is going to be the cable length to reach either side, #tesla isn't going to change it.
