okay. https://moa.party/ is officially 😋 awesome. Besides the open-source goodness, the faux-text aesthetic on their website is pretty great.

Use moa party instead. It is feature rich, handles the character limit well, and doesnt block half the fediverse.
Very nice. I would like to see the Tech manufacturing industry get its resource pillaging under control.

wait... I just noticed a subscribe button on someone's profile in addition to the "follow" and now I'm confused. What's the difference?
Shucks. @publicvoit recommended https://crossposter.masto.donte.com.br/ for cross-posting Mastodon and Twitter doesn't allow qoto.org, probably because of our glorious 65k character limit. Ah well. I can go back to writing my books an qoto.
A very nice tidbit with #emacs workflow works like this: I receive a link to an article through Telega.el (A++ Telegram client). I press the shortcut to open it in readable mode with w3m (text only, bypassing 80% of paywalls) Then I invoke spray mode and speed read the thing. A few short keys and now I feel guilty whenever I read an article slowly, via scrolling in my GUI browser.
I seem to have made it work. But it was a little confusing.

I now have accounts on three different Mastodon servers, and sometimes I come across something with one account that I would like to address with a different one. Why is it that I cannot find any given user from my other accounts? I thought this was the central idea of Mastodon

I've never quite understood the quick hatred often touted against css. I actually think it's a great idea, and it's pain points are no more than any other technology.

I've been trying to judge if I can replace my household's several usba-usbc phone chargers with straight usbc. https://www.extremetech.com/computing/115251-how-usb-charging-works-or-how-to-avoid-blowing-up-your-smartphone

#firefox doesn't need to be remotely as big as Chrome or as IE was before Chrome... It just needs to be big enough to matter in privacy and open standards and to keep the other browser makers honest.
But this is a troubling loss of the only mainstream browser not owned by a major advertiser or tech giant.
The internet is a much better place if Firefox can claw its way back to 10-15 percent market share.
It's now hovering at around 8 percent with Chrome at 70+%....
