Hi @marcoarment @overcastfm, I'm getting insane battery consumption with 2024.7.1. It's eaten ~50% of the total battery in 90 min of pod listening (phone is otherwise idle), and the phone is physically hot to the touch.

Is this to be expected with first use (syncing, dling like 20 pods, etc.)? If not, anything I should do to send you diagnostics for bug hunting?

@morgthorak I think you might want to make sure you don’t follow me.

Because your “woke communist propaganda” comment makes me think you’re a moron of the first order.

I strongly suspect I am one of those “woke communists” you worry about. But you probably couldn’t actually explain what either of those words actually mean, could you?

I’m a card-carrying atheist, I think a woman’s right to choose is very important, I think that “well regulated militia” means that guns should be carefully licensed and not just randomly given to any moron with a pulse, and I couldn’t care less if you decided to dress up in the “wrong” clothes or decided you’d rather live your life without feeling tied to whatever plumbing you were born with.

And dammit, if that all makes me “woke”, then I think anybody who uses that word as a pejorative is a f*cking disgrace to the human race. So please just unfollow me right now.

@qurlyjoe And here it is going semi-viral on another site a day before it started blowing up on Reddit: https://twitter.com/27_b_6/status/928641031792463873

Public Notice

Lots of reports of crypto spam attacks coming in from multiple instances today.

Seems like the bad guys are getting kinda worried about Mastodon.

Instance admins are taking this very seriously and working hard to fend off the attacks.

What can you do? If you see a crypto scam post, don't engage with it. It's just a bot anyway. If you block and report the post it will help administrators isolate the attacker account.

We got this!
