@freemo @ech @PBruce The "don't say gay" bill is very similar to the infamous British Section 28.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/article/cacc0b40-c3a4-473b-86cc-11863c0b3f30 You can read about it here.
Section 28 was enacted by the Conservative Party (the same people who came up with Brexit) and was repealed by Labour in 2003.

I will write the simplest UI known to man.. it will just have a single button, no feeds, no text box.. it will be labeled "scream into the void".. when you press it it posts a single toot that just contains "AHHHHHHHHHHHH!", no replies will be shown :)
Yea, i mean we have simple mode, but I suspect it could be simpler. I would have to review.
@bonifartius yea sadly the ham radio community has some suprisingly shitty software, the open-source stuff is no exception (though very little is OSS in ham radio).
Fair enough... thats one reason you can turn on/off advanced mode. Some features unique to QOTO are just functionally super useful.. like being able to follow the feed of a specific server, or being able to subscribe to accounts instead of follow them.
@sabbatical @khird @trinsec @barefootstache @elk @ivory @IceCubesApp
I cant say I've had a close eye on clients as of late, so that may be true.. I use the standard web client myself because it has and will always give me access to the most features.
@sabbatical @khird @trinsec @barefootstache
This is the first I am hearing about that client, so honestly I just dont know... If for some reason the client isnt supported I can tell you it is unintentional on our part.
@freemo Food poisoning seems like a trend... just saw someone toot about getting sick from bad chocolate.
