Some 4 years ago I literally searched for a twitter alternative with a higher character count limit. 😋

Ended up on mastodon.social with 500 characters. I liked it.

Then I saw mastodon.host with 2000 characters. I liked it more and moved to there. Then I managed to convince its admin to bump it up to 4000 characters. Woo, like like like!

Then mastodon.host crashed hardcore and was not recoverable and I moved on to Qoto with 65k characters. Woo, likey!

Not that I ever need to type in that many characters, but to make a toot without worrying any bit about character count is very relaxing!

@hvangalen Hoe ontstoren ze? Door ze op plekken te gebruiken waar draden teveel bijelkaar komen en ze dan maar hierdoor te jassen zodat ze tenminste apart van elkaar blijven, of...? Seperate PVC-buizen ofzo lijken me dan toch handiger?

@mur2501 I've got hundreds of hours into Skyrim but the main quest not that much. ;)

@NachoNachoMan@masto.ai Relatable.. time to get an ibu. *sigh*

@mur2501 Well, that's for another time to discover. I never wanted to make the decision between the Imperials and the Stormcloaks. They both sucked equally too much. ;)

@TomDelargy

With so many new people who don't know what they're doing, that doesn't strike me as odd, actually.

It's also entirely possible that your server didn't federate fully with those account(s) yet.

@TomDelargy

Yeah, the creator of this site indeed has stated that many times over the years. Got in some disputes over this too.

But you know what, if you actually manage to change his mind I'll be very very grateful. See, Qoto (the server I'm on) actually has Quote-Toots available, almost since the beginning of the Fediverse. And Qoto gets a lot of shit for having it and even gets blocked by other servers for having this feature.

So if vanilla Mastodon actually will get QT, which I doubt but hey, there is even less reason to shitpile onto Qoto. So I'm not against that feature, far from it. But I just highly doubt it'll ever happen.

@TomDelargy
What do you mean 'vanished into thin air'? That's still visible on the old instance and you can link to there. The old account won't get deleted, it'll show 'this user has moved to <new instance>'.

Don't count on vanilla Mastodon (which mastodon.social is at) ever getting proper QTs, so either you accept that, or you move. That's the only option you have.

@neilhimself

@fribbledom Considering the IQ you need to watch the average sitcom I think that's already happening.

@TomDelargy
I dunno, if quote posts were so important to him he can move to a server that already supports it?

There are modified Mastodon instances supporting QTs, and there are non-Mastodon instances that already supports QT from the beginning.

@neilhimself

@lydiaconwell I find that blocking in essence doesn't always make people stop see your posts, unless they're on the same instance. That's my experience.

Managed to get a mount now...

And of course I won't use it because it's pretty hard to be stealthy while riding on a big noisy mount. :P

@EubieDrew
I've complained to @freemo about this avatar issue before, yeah. Haven't really used Discourse much. Planned to, but life got in the way and I find it a cumbersome site. :P

So far I treat Horizon Zero Dawn a bit the same as Skyrim questing-wise... avoid the main quest as long as possible until you run out of side-quests. 😋

There's a difference.. you can actually run out of side-quests in HZD! No endless radiant questing system here. ;)

Graphics-wise this game's gorgeous. I just wish the FOV could be a bit bigger.

@freemo @mandaroza @peterdrake
I'd say we dropped from a few thousand new users every week to about a hundred max now.

Still better than pre-twittermigration levels. We have plenty of room for growth.

@favus What? I thought that was a fairly new series, I was yet to watch it...

Is it still worth watching despite it being cancelled?
