@tcql Also might consider an alternative to the Mozilla Firefox release, while you are experimenting?
I really like the Waterfox project, a FF with no tracking and talkback to Mozilla.
Waterfox has TWO branches now, the "Current"branch is code updated with current Firefox releases, and amazingly fast. The other, "Classic" branch supports lots of older Firefox extensions which Mozilla blocked long time ago.

Mercury crossing the face of the Sun, this morning. Amazing how small and how close the planet is.

RT @xaxat@twitter.com
@doctorow@twitter.com But, but….
The Northern latitudes is where the impact of climate change, temperatures raising is showing most clearly.
The permafrost, frozen soil under very large areas of Siberia, Alaska, Northern Canada is starting to melt, releasing a lot of water in the Spring (with floods being worse), buildings badly affected by softer soil underneath their foundations.
Gas and Oil pipelines with hundreds of kilometers lengths are built on those regions, and can be damaged by shifting soils. Major leaks can result.
The melting permafrost also leads to ancient vegetation in it starting to rot, and releasing vast quantities of CO2 and other gases, as well as noxious rotting smells.
Saw a really good report on the Washington post on this subject :

Hi Friends,
The Mercury transit has begun.Remember the next time mercury travels across the face of the sun (from the earths perspective ) will be on 2032.so dont miss this journey.it goes on for about 5.5 hours, so you can tune in when your free.
If you own a telescope with appropriate sunfilter, you can watch the transit.its visible from Europe,parts of west Asia, Americas,Africa, Atlantic & pacific ocean.
If you can't see it,dont worry NASA has you covered with SDO lives.The solar dynamics observatory would be doing live broadcasts,link down here

Happy watching :)
We have just been talking, and discovered many of us started up in the old days - when BBSes were the only networking connection most people could have. Internet at the time was for Academics and large Business users, all the software used was command line only (shell, ftp, gopher at best).
BBSes were wonderful experiences. I think many people never lived thru that, but there's a great documentary you can watch and see how it was like, very well done.

DVDs are no longer for sale. But a fellow has it on YouTube for now:

How shamefully disgusting. I dont know why its so hard for people to be decent towards others. Are we really so far gone as a people that this is the sort of shit we have to deal with :(
We are very cautious about who we pick as mods and try to review them for some time. They cam be left leaning or right leaning, I dont mind that, but they must show compassion and objectivity in how they handle others they disagree with.
I a very happy with the mods we have so far in that regard ( @arteteco and @Surasanji
)

M.S and even many other mastodon incidents tend to have this pattern of behavior. They tend to pick a secret political affiliation then ban everyone who seems to be on the other side
Fear of M.S abusing moderation, as they do, is exactly why I started #QOTO so we will never do that here so long as you treat liberals with full respect and dont constantly belittle or attack others then you will be fine, even protected here.
We want people on QOTO to be free, without fear, to post their opinions and ideas. For that to happen we have to ensure we dont go around censoring people for opinions.
Be kind to others and you will always be welcome here regardless of your views.
Mastodon does have some nice, fine control settings in the "Preferences" menus.
I had been lost with some foreign language posts which, without the Google Translate available on birdsite are completely obscure. Mastodon allow Filtering posts by Language.
Select the ones you know or even have a passing familiarity with, all others will be removed from your feed. Very useful for the Federated Feed area.
When the news of the day is getting to you... Maybe try "Tiles" puzzle game at the NYT?
A nice FREE word finding puzzle game for Android. Lexica is cool.

An interesting article about Mastodon. A couple of years old but a good read I thought.

:transpaw:
I'm seeing a lot of coverage on Mastodon lately, but the Fediverse doesn't just consist of Mastodon instances, there's also:
- Pleroma instances, like Wolf Howl!
- Misskey instances, like catgirl.life!
- Gab, we pretend they don't exist~
... and more!
The Fediverse is about freedom, down to picking the software of your preference and the server of your preference. Don't feel liek you're just restricted to one!

Not all places in fediverse are as friendly, polite as we might expect. A list of banned instances from mastodon.social might map places to beware of
