Not really called scribblans.
It's an anglicised spelling of the Cornish word 'skryblans', meaning a scribble/doodle.
This is the ffs edition (FireFish Social)

Not funny. Also, not serious.

Would rather be out walking on a Cornish clifftop with my dog. Probably am.

Anything else?

Hmm...
Hats.
Hats are nice.

Some day I'll log in and find it all working well.

Some day.

grey, misty, drizzly
still, mellow, yet not fruitful
brutally flailed hedges

Please can anyone thinking of replying 'RTFM' include a link to the 'FM'. Thank you.

Now we're feeling all snappy and working again, can we have a look at notifications and them not showing any difference between read or unread? I'm always looking down that column (deck view) and wondering if anyone thinks I'm rude for not answering, when it's just the fact I can't easily see it's not been read, so have missed a reply.
My mastodon instance shows any new notifications received with a thin blue line down the left side in advanced web view, which easily makes it stand out - and 'mark as read' removes it.

And what the heck does this mean? Seen when trying to post this edit.

You will experience climate change through a series of increasingly wild videos, until one day it's you taking the video.

So far, so good.

Good morning (it is here anyway)
Just thought I'd try a post on firefish for a change. I'll be sure not to make any sudden movements after pressing the post button and see what happens...

When my brain replays an unexpected embarrassing or shameful episode to me, I have worked out a thought strategy that seems to work... I consciously tell myself that the only place in the whole observable and beyond universe that this thought is happening, the only place that the required atoms are bashing together to make this thought happen at all, is in my head, right now.

The people involved aren't thinking of it and don't remember it, the time that it happened is long gone, and the planets, galaxies and stars are just moving on and going about, continuing to do their thing, regardless of what my neurons happen to be doing...

It kind of helps.

Noooo! Why doesn't my theme setting stick?

I sign in, it's gone back to default light after I left it on dark... that's now four clicks to get it back every time before I start.

Is that just me or is it a known thing? And where do I go to see all the known things that aren't quite right yet so I don't end up having a moan and get twenty replies saying 'Oh yeah, we all know about that already, please be patient...'

I have imported my following list from toot.community to my firefish account this morning. I'm not moving completely, but there are occasions where the editing of a post, trimming or finding alternate shorter words in order to try to fit something in to one 500 character post, is tiresome, and I really don't want to create threads, like a similarly tiresome olde worlde Xitter user...


Thank you if you have chosen to follow this account when you already know what I'm like...

For easy identification purposes, I have added (ffs) to my name on this one. It stands for FireFish Social, obviously...
