@Wenin Yeah, I saw your instance runs Glitch social, a modified Mastodon codebase. :) Mine doesn't run Glitch, but it's also modified. 65k characters which is plenty enough obviously. :D

My account here started on.. well, officially on november 2020 I think. But I've registered since uh.. 2018? Just decided to settle on mastodon.host to chat there until they crashed, and remembered after that that I still had an account here and can just continue because they also have no char limit here. (.host had like 4k limit, which was also nice!)

The quote and RSS features are also nice, and some others that you can read about in the About page. Maybe Glitch got some of that as well.

But yeah, screw the 'micro'blogging. damnit! If we wanted to do that shit we'd just go to Twitter! ;)

@lydiaconwell I usually just block because they're just polluting my timeline. I don't need to see half-nude manga images or something.

@Wenin Oh yeah, that'd be so interesting. People who are on welfare support and would get shafted if they tried to work because they're living off subsidies atm... so they're not incentived to work in the first place... they could actually try to undertake things if they know that it's just an 'additional' to their existing basic income and that they'd not get screwed over for actually trying to work. :P

@lydiaconwell Oh just block them immediately. I mean, not worth obsessing over it. Unwanted content, especially repeatedly, is simply a block.

@Wenin I went from mastodon.social (the first 'main' instance, good chance many people start there first) towards mastodon.host, and stayed there until they crashed so hardcore that I searched for a new place. Now qoto.org is my home, nice features, lots of text possible (no silly 500 chars limit), etc. So, I've been here for like... mm, 1,5 years or so now I guess? Not bad.

@lydiaconwell Ahh, are they all from the same instance?

@lydiaconwell No, I mean the other thing!

@lydiaconwell The.. what?

@Wenin Oh yeah! Way more casual convos everywhere on the Fediverse!

Maybe it's a bit too technical for them to figure out which instance to join? It did take me some time at first as well to figure out what they meant with instances. And I moved my account a few times before I settled down.

@Wenin Ah for some reason I was thinking Austria. Might be some other P.me user who hailed from there.

Hi neighbour!

Yeah, fulltime jobs are still aplenty here, but it's not weird to have parttime either.

@Wenin Yep, with one I have daily contact. With others, once in a blue moon. Just a bit of chitchat.

Wonder why they don't just flock to the Fediverse, they could even make their own gaming instance or something. :D

@Wenin Remind me again where your 'here' is? I've forgotten your country. :) Middle Europe?

@Wenin It's why part-time jobs are extremely popular here. It's not like you're working badly that way. You might even have more energy to work efficiently!

@lydiaconwell Go go goooo Fedi!

(Like that?)

Heh, why does it not surprise me to read that Player.me is going to shut down? That place went to the shitter after they made their intent clear to focus on streamers mostly and then we got flooded with 'plz follow my stream' spam in our timeline.

Actually, it's probably just as well because that led me to search for alternatives, and I ended up here in the Fediverse. :)

If any, I'm more surprised that they managed to survive for this long. That place was most fun somewhere before 2018, we had great gaming conversations then. Kinda miss that time a little.

@aidamarna Fair enough! Just thought I'd give some alternatives. :) Have fun with your choice!

@aidamarna What I mean to say is, those programs can be as basic or as complex as you want them to be. :)

@aidamarna Mmm, without plugins, Obsidian didn't seem that much. And Joplin was also fairly basic?

@aidamarna Have you checked either Joplin or Obsidian yet?
