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 :)

@trinsec

Yea, i mean we have simple mode, but I suspect it could be simpler. I would have to review.

@sabbatical @khird @barefootstache

@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).

@sabbatical

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.

@trinsec

If you filed it as a bug I will hopefully get to it as I spin back up over these next weeks.

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.

The academic journal idea is one I would really really love to do. But its a project that requires a good deal of participation and unless I see a decent amount of interest I am worried it would be a dead end.

@TheUSASingers@union.place

I would never reelect trump, but his handling of COVID is so far down on my list as to why... not cause he did an excellent job, he did a rather average job.. he just did a lot of things way worse.

Man now I want to get back into coding my APRS platform... I really want to rewrite aprs.fi, quite the shame that it isnt open-source.... Hams really need to embrace more open-source.

@freemo Food poisoning seems like a trend... just saw someone toot about getting sick from bad chocolate.

So, quick survey with a target demographic of one (1) person:

(Get well soon, in any case!)

@trinsec I found it behind the radiator when i was cleaning.. I figured the heat fromt eh radiator must have killed off any bugs.

Ow my stomach hurts... that 3 year old meatball I ate earlier might not have been the smartest idea....

@TruthSandwich Sometimes you say things that I can agree with... this is one of those times.

@trinsec

Agreed.. thankfully now that I quit i have the time to invest for a bit.

1) My role is the STEM amateur enthusiast, not even a student, nevermind in the professional line. If I were starting fresh, I would gravitate towards that.

2) My enthusiasm for changing to a "sibling server" ranks up there with my interest in changing my email address. Again. Which is to say, "not very," and for the same reasons. I'm not clear I can alter my handle on the Birdsite without losing any means to have my fediverse address in there at all.

3) My wife and the very few friends that started accounts on qoto do not appear to be using this much if at all. "Moving" would for them would sound an awful lot like, "forget you bothered with Mastodon."

4) I'm highly confident any ties between you and any other server will bring on the Ultra Self-Righteous crowd that got qoto on the naughty list, and a new site would be on that list faster than word could get out the site exists.

@Romaq

If I setup a second server no one would be obligated to move... but im not sure there is much of an argument for the effort when we can all just be here.

@trinsec @khird

I accidentally put my VHF/UHF transmission into a long coax cable i had that was disconnected at the far end.... Still got about 4.5 SWR on VHF and about 2.5 SWR on UHF... anyone who says they cant put up an antenna has never tried :) That said I probably wouldnt have gotten much of a signal out.
