@freemo Tequila Tuesdays? Employees have to drink tequila from 0600 hours during the work day.
Thunderdome Thursdays? You sound like a good boss.
@freemo @peterdrake Thanks for taking this on and making it run more and more smoothly!
@tatzelbrumm Yup that one is the top priority.
@bibliolater Not a hard one just yet. Depends how quickly my system admin can learn the ropes, as well as our programmer.
That said they start working january first, they will have stuff to do other than QOTO, but QOTO will be part of their duties.
My **hope** is we will see the next release sometime in January, probably towards the end.
@sergeant Go to a user on an instance you want to block, click on them so their profile shows up in QOTO. Then click the three dots next to follow and select "block domain"
@sergeant What error do you get?
@bibliolater I suspect that should be fixed in the next release.
> 1. Do you block Threads?
I dont personally block threads, nor does the server. Right now we dont block too many servers. That said once we add the feature for users to opt-out of instance level server blocks then we might block threads by default.
> 2. Will you enable the possibilty to block instances peesonaly?
You already can, you can personally block any instance you want.
> 3. When will you enable the possibilty to edit send posts?
Yes this is one of the first and highest priority features.
@bibliolater First step will be to port over the translation feature and the in-line toot editing feature mainline mastodon got.
After that we plan to do a feature with regards to block lists where the server can block other servers but users can opt to ignore the recommended block list if they want.
Good news for #QOTO. We are now being funded by some donated resources, both money and developers. We will essentially have a full-time server administrator and a part-time developer to advance the QOTO software. They will be starting January 1st.
This should allow us to start adopting many of the features we have wanted to bring in that people have been requesting.
> I often think, "No, I wasn't calling YOU an idiot, I was saying you're ACTING like an idiot. And, in fact, I think you're better than that, so you might want to change course."
Exactly, like if I thought you were an idiot I wouldnt even need to bother telling you that your words or actions are idiotic, it would be a waste of my time.
@jackyan Yea we were more north. My white side came over on the first boats to colonize here, it was the tribe around that area at that time as well as more northward into Canada.
Aren't all lies on purpose, oitherwise your just a moron, but an honest one if your wrong on accident :)
I am fine with that as long as they arent parties (governed bodies).. if they are just hashtags or the will of the people at least its organic and no one person can control it (or even a majority)
@jackyan My Native American heritage is Penobscot tribe. and sadly a lot of the knowledge wasnt passed down to me, but I took time to visit some survivng natives from the tribe once I learned about my heritage.
