“A republic — if you can keep it.”

If you haven’t yet voted and are able to do so, make sure you vote tomorrow. Vote for the Democrats. So much, truly, is at stake.

I want to echo what other Mastodon admins are saying: please report any harassment or violative messages you're seeing. Unlike the birdsite, your local admin will likely react quickly -- and you'll make the instance better for everyone, not just yourself.

So... please don't just ignore! Let us know if there's a problem.

Plan A for the right is to win the midterm elections at the polls — and they might pull that off. But Plan B is to delegitimize the results if they lose. https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/tucker-carlson-primes-his-audience-suspect-fraud-if-gop-doesnt-sweep-midterms

An interesting problem:

I've been hearing from a lot of folks that "I'm trying to sign up for Mastodon and it's not letting me / it's confusing / it's a mess / it's broken"

When I inquire, these folks are always using a mobile app to sign up

My sense is ... many mobile apps are bad *in general*, and their signup is *particularly* broken

I tell these folks to sign up using a plain 'ol browser and it works

I'm now switching my "hey, sign up!" advice to insist on using a browser
