People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

A few recommendations for life on Mastodon:

1) Follow anyone you think looks potentially interesting; you can always unfollow later, and they may lead you to new people via boosted posts.

2) Boost posts you think are worthy, so others can discover new content.

3) Don't obsess on replicating your Twitter follows on Mastodon; let it be its own experience, and grow it organically. Obvs follow anyone you miss from Twitter, but this isn't a 1:1 replacement; have fun, follow your instincts.

Musk-Twitter has been such a visceral experience of why there should be no billionaires. It should take more than one mediocre egotist’s midlife crisis to ruin a collective creation of 16 years.

"The best people are staying, so I'm not super worried"

Oh my. To be this blind. I pray I never get this wealthy that I'm buying into my own delusions.

Sure, he'll retain the most extreme of the staff. That's decidedly different from the best.

At the same time, the backup servers are bored. Please use these instead:

Second #fedifinder backup server is active again as well. Now that this is done, I am going to work on the new interface and postpone the tasks of my daytime job to the weekend.

@RPD0911 Évekkel ezelőtt volt egy twitter-exodus, és akkor valaki (ha jól emlékszem _csy) csinált is egy magyar instance-t. De nagyon nagy macera volt életben tartani. Ez persze lehet, hogy azóta változott, de elnézve az instance-t, ahol vagyok, nem egy triviális történet.
What I always thought “Only Fans” meant

Isn't it kinda weird that #Mastodon gets described as 'left-leaning' because we handle more strickt rules and don't tolerate things like bullying.. It could be me but I perceive this as 'normal'.

I mean you don't call people all kinds of names in a conversation on the street or in the store right? Even if you don't agree🤔

Somehow it feels the (online) standards for treating each other have declined so much over the past few years  

Let them talk, we are a loving and happy community!

#rustlang people, I just published my first crate on crates.io 🎉
https://crates.io/crates/dap

For context, DAP is a lot like LSP, but for debuggers.

(first time, so let me know if I messed up somewhere)

It's still extremely early (hence the alpha version) and no doubt I will find lots things that need adjusting once I start implementing what I wanted with it (a debug adapter for CMake!). Since implementing the protocol became a non-trivial endeavour, I decided to put it into its own crate.

crates.io: Rust Package Registry

Contrary to popular belief there is no law that says websites need to have cookie popups. There are laws that say companies need informed consent to manage personal data. It's perfectly possible to build websites that don't collect personal data by default.

Popups are how the market "solved" this. But most of those popups are themselves illegal(!)

Take a moment to appreciate the lack of a cookie popup on your Mastodon website.
