I chose a Tuxedo computer and @tuxedocomputers offered me a discount on it :)

Oh are we doing animal discussion???

hey all, I'm working on figuring out logistics for the mastodon fork and I'm making lists of:

1. existing forks which already have features implemented (does your instance have non-standard features you like? let us know!)
2. outstanding feature requests on the upstream repo that need to be addressed
3. any minor changes you've made to your instance which are worth including (CSS changes, etc.)

also feel free to @ me with any suggestions, etc.

Turns out the current German federal data protection commissioner, @ulrichkelber, has an active Mastodon account!
It's really great to see that Mr. Kelber is active where much of the IT - and especially privacy - community are, instead of only on the big, privacy-violating social networks.

'Scuse me?

I feel like maybe we should have a conversation about #Fediverse nomenclature.

Which words do you use to describe the fediverse?

Which words do you think we should try to adopt, if we aren't using them already?

Is it accessible? If not, what can we do to improve on that?

(inspired by @Algot , but untag him from replies, unless he really wants to get tagged)

If you have submitted patches (or translations) to Mastodon before and they've become part of the software, you can go here:

And submit an invoice for your work 💰

Toot, toot!

Tusky has opened an Open Collective, where you can support the development, translations and support work!

We offer a $12/ year tier, which is the symbolic "if everyone who uses the app can pay $1/month".

As well as, a backer tier, and a sponsor tier!

programmers: duplicated effort is a sin, we should streamline processes as much as possible

also programmers: wtf i dont want to ride a bus, that shit is for people who are less good than me, its much better to sit in my car on the freeway for two hours while everyone else also drives their car
