part of my role at glitch is leading support and neutralizing abuse on the platform. we'll occasionally have folks (especially teens) coming in really hot on the support queue–saying nasty stuff that i know they learn from mostly Being Online. their intent is to get technical support but their rhetoric makes it also an abuse case and opportunity to be educated on how to appropriately ask for help. that education piece is hard and sometimes hurtful, but it's important!
Unfortunately I have to stop actively working on #Metatext for a while due to health issues. I really wish I could implement Mastodon 4 features and squash every bug, but it's not possible for me to do so right now.
I know the app has become important to a lot people, so I'm open to a new maintainer who can carry on its values of privacy and accessibility taking it over if there's interest and a fit. Email info@metabolist.org if you (or your organization) are interested
@nightpool the people who maintained the arguing microservice have also left
me sowing microservices: hahaha this is awesome! every service gets their own completely customized deployment strategy and ops burden that scales with their need!
me reaping microservices: oh god all 6 people who knew about this service are gone and it has a completely customized deployment strategy that has been entirely outstripped by its new criticality
Everyone else: #Mastodon is really complex and has a lot of questions around who can see your DMs and what instance should you join and how do you find people and why toot instead of tweet and how do we monetise it and...
@WAHa_06x36 I was talking to @thegrugq on twitter and he mentioned that Lists support in Toot.app was pretty hard to find—do you have any suggestions? maybe screenshots on how to set up lists? I couldn't find anything on the app store page.
