Mastodon’s limitations mean it relies more on its users to surface good content. Search doesn’t really work. There are far fewer suggested posts. QTs don’t really exist yet. Trending doesn’t really work. So boosting becomes the absolutely critical way for other people to find interesting things. IE, if you see something you like, boost/RT it, tag people who you think might be interested, etc.
I have deleted all of my #codeberg repo's.
It's actual E.V. Members are wanting to ban some #FreeSoftware from it's server, and I am not getting into a corrupt organization, just to change it. I am not going to get myself into such disappointing work.
Better to keep on being positive, and let codeberg's haters hate.
Not my place, and I am recommending other code hosting.
If, by a small chance, you are a codeberg user, get informed about it and it's policies, and what they really stand for.
Trump is —gulp!— right.
But the base won’t care. They are COVID denialists and anti-vax and will have no problem with DeSantis rewriting his own history. Trump, after all, taught them not to care about a candidate’s past or about hypocrisy.
RT @meridithmcgraw@twitter.com
Today on his campaign plane Trump took some of his sharpest swings at DeSantis, accusing him of “trying to rewrite history.”Trump said DeSantis “promoted the vaccine as much as anyone” and noted he closed beaches and businesses in parts of FL. More here:

@MugsysRapSheet @stopgopfox Have Republicans apologized for mocking Pelosi's injuries and this assault? Disgusting.
@stopgopfox How is the party which pushes free speech okay with book banning? Where are Democrats on this issue? President Biden should be speaking out as should Democrats throughout the country. DeSantis is running for President to do this on a national basis.

Out doing errands today when I noticed a large crowd gathered for an anti-abortion rally outside the State Capitol building in Salem, OR. I decided to walk by and get a sense of who was in the crowd and spotted these Oregon Nazis standing in the back handing out fliers for a Holocaust denial film. You'd think "Nazis against genocide" would be a tough PR to pull off. But intellectual consistency and fascism rarely go together.
Also worth noting is the Appeal to Heaven flag, an emblem that goes back to the American Revolutionary era and which has recently been appropriated by Christian Nationalists. Several folks on January 6 were waving that flag. I suspect this is how the Nazis are trying to attract recruits from this crowd of self-understood "Christian Patriots."
@SrRochardBunson @almostheretical talking about "after #deconstruction" is odd to me. However long or short my life will be, I'll be deconstructing for the rest of it.
All Tyre Nichols wanted to do was go home.
All Trayvon Martin wanted to do was go home.
All Amadou Diallo wanted to do was go home.
Breonna Taylor WAS home.
@stopgopfox The video of him standing in the doorway with Mr. Pelosi (who is trying to keep him from using the hammer he's wielding), with that smug/stupid face, tells you everything you need to know: another Trump-loving idiot with an inflated sense of self-importance thinking he's doing something "heroic". 🤦♂️
