@tenbus_uk @AlisonW Yep, my understanding was also that anything until (and including) the master socket is BT OpenReach property/responsibility. If you open it up (which you are allowed to do), there should be a socket for extensions to plug into. If you move the socket+there is a fault, they may charge you.
@pruvisto @chris_mahan @evan I know on the server I've just migrated to that there is a big job in the queue being processed so "niceties" such as bulk imports are being delayed (it's been about 3 hours). When I was doing imports on mastodon.social it seemed to be less than 10 minutes per time.
Self explanatory statements below. I have a theory on this.
Please boost if you take part
Thanks

Just to let everybody know, I'm going to be migrating my account from mastodon.social (where it's been my home since 2017) to @xvilo 's https://mastodon.org.uk for a more "local"/smaller experience. You shouldn't have to do anything.

Why are people from Norway so good at editing files in Linux?

Their ancestors are vi-kings.

I am so mad at myself for laughing at this 😂

@liampomfret There's https://wordpress.org/plugins/autopost-to-mastodon/ to do that: which has the advantage of readers being able to respond (and you respond to them) which I don't *think* is on the ActivityPub plugin (I haven't tried it).
Mastodon Autopost

A Wordpress Plugin that automatically posts your new articles to Mastodon. The best: It is set and forget!

@bloor @steve Perhaps Musk will have a poll on every controversial banned user "for the engagement/clicks/lolz". He was soo happy when so many million people saw the Trump poll (even though less than 10% voted and he acknowledges there were a lot of bots voting).

RT @goldengateblond
full quote is "Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, vox populi, vox dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit.”

it translates to:

"Do not listen to those who say the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the tumult of the crowd is always close to madness."

@atomicpoet I think people are confusing dodginess with what it says on the tin. They think donating the that Patreon supports the whole Mastodon network (including their instance/server): then think it's dodgy as Gargron keeps all of it for developer salaries/payments and running of mastodon.social and .online (as the Patreon says it does) instead of spreading it around.
