Totally blind woman on the continued and most likely permanent process of self-discovery.
@JesseF8693 I haven't seen anything on how to do this, and even if you could, I think that action is only allowable by admins.
I also get there are alternative ways of contacting those people I might have lost connection with due to a defederation thing. But not everyone uses all the alternatives. Yes, I get this is controversial. But it's an opinion, and opinions don't hurt anyone unless they are being acted upon in a harmful way. So, there's that.
I think the only thing I don't like about Masto is the idea of defederating. I understand why it exists, but for those of us who have relationships with a lot of people from one server, it really kinda sucks. Blocking/muting/not following or boosting are things that I personally implement if I don't like something/someone. I don't want others having the potential to sever connections just because the folks I'm connected with are on a server the admin(s) of the server I'm on don't like.
@x0 Oh no are you kidding me?
@x0 Yep, thanks! I have some great instructions here from someone that explain how to do that.
Honestly, I didn't realize content warnings counted against character limits. That's actually part of my problem. I have 500 characters of stuff to say sometimes (didn't think I'd get to that point either) but then the content warning I'd like to put in those posts won't fit! So that's kind of counterproductive. This new instance feels just a touch more to my liking as well, though I'm not able to explain why. It's an intuition/instinct thing.
Hey, just a heads up. I'm 90 percent sure I'll be moving Masto instances within the next day or two. I will keep this account up for a while so that people can do what is required to process this information, but it will eventually be going away to satisfy my ND self that complains about loose ends being everywhere. Thanks for all the migration tips, and thanks to this instance for being cool! I still like this one... just the character limit is too short! Didn't think I'd get to that point LOL.
Okay. So Seeing AI's descriptions are rather lackluster, but at least I was able to go through my photos and figure out what were duplicates and accidental snaps of arbitrary whatevers. Thanks for the tip, guys.
@Brynify Okay, thanks!
