Once upon long ago I wrote and recorded an album worth of original music. I couldn't decide which song to link here, so here's the whole thing:
Okay here's a real toot that you can actually boost without people looking at you like you're crazy.

The past few weeks (okay, ever since the schism) I've felt kind of disenchanted by Mastodon and especially its development environment, and I wrote an essay about why that is. It's long, but if you're interested in Mastodon's history or politics you should give it a read.
The actual freedom is that you can make an instance where you can do whatever you want - not that you can do whatever you want on any instance.
La libertad real es que usted puede hacer una instancia donde se puede hacer lo que quiera - no es que se puede hacer lo que quiera en cualquier instancia.
By the way. If I post something and within 2-3 seconds I get favorited/boosted by an account I don't know, I'm assuming it's a bot and blocking it.
I've had enough bot activity on birdsite to last me a good few years. If you're doing a nifty exocortex project like @drwho , I would hope that your bot has some kind of friendly information attached to it that would prevent me from just banning it.
don't let your bots run around without tags, people.
