@toplesstopics Hi, just testing: does this message come trough?
It seems some admins are hating on the instance i am on, please say something if you can see this toot.

@datenzwerg Soso, ein "Lurker"? Ich folge dir jetzt, bin also ein "Observer" ;-)

Hast du Starcraft gespielt? Sonst macht der Flachwitz leider keinen Sinn für dich.

@freemo I took the most restrained way i could think of and only asked if quoto was removed and why.

Please note that i only bcc'd you so it does not look pushy. I personally think anything that looks like criticism quickly looks like an attack if sent to others too (work experience).

If anything that resembles a discussion happens, i will openly cc you.

@freemo Hi, did the email joinmastodon.org thing yield any results? How many emails were sent yet?

I am asking because i would email, but i don't want to flood them. I think flooding their inbox would be counterproductive.

So please let me know if we got a good turnout yet or not.

Tupac Shakur sounds like a Protoss name.

Comic linking / posting style:
Is it ok to copy the image of a comic into a post?

I wonder how exhausting it is for others to click through a link. I am using the browser interface and opening a link in a new tab is easy.
I would say with some decription, i would click through if it sounds interesting.

How many smartphone app users are there? Is it annoying to open a link or totally worth it to give the creators websites a site visit? Or would it be more in favour of creators to post the picture so people have easier access and more actually develop an interest? Needless to say, a link will always be included by me.

Are there any #contentcreator #author #authors that could help me get a better understanding?
Am i missing tags that i should add here?

Hooray, an actually intelligent robot to do our dirty work:

So what do people think about sharing links to comics? Is that a type of toot content that is well liked or rather perceived as annoying? Not asking about the specific comic, just sharing comic links in general.

Since there is no downvote here, a simple "no" will suffice to tell me it is not wanted.

In the browser, #mastodon displays three trending hashtags. Is there a way (without smartphone) to see more?

@freemo Concerning rate-limited problems, it seems it might have been partly my fault.
I use uMatrix, and had the log open when i saw (first picture) quite a lot of requests fly by while not actively using a mastodon tab.
So i closed some left over tabs (opened to maybe read later, that stuff), and the barrage subsided.

It seems the browser tabs all send lots of requests, even if inactive / in the background.

Since my development experience is strictly backend (if i see javascript or derivatives, i run) i have no idea how realistic it would be to get this under control. For the time being, i will be more watchful to close unneeded tabs and report back if the rate-limited problems subside. So far, i did not see another message.

@freemo I saw a nightclub owner complaining about being banned from a #mastodon instance (not qoto). It seems this happened because of the commercial nature of the account.
What is the official qoto stance on such things? Are businesses welcome? Are there rules for this, including promotion?

I hate my life, and i hate yours too.
I hate to hate, and i hate that...
Is #Rammstein here?

I do not want to think, yet i do. My wish is disrespected by my human brain.
I could be a cat, then i would be fed, but not expected to think or even be nice.
I could knock stuff over, eat well despite that... oh wait, i invented billionaires again. Never mind.
