My first Mastodon PR! :yum: adding "Clear" and "Settings" hover text to the trash and settings icons (starting small haha) github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/

I'm finding myself aggressively tooting (compared to prior social networks) and following people back with an almost-cavalier attitude. So far everyone is A+ awesome.

I think I'm at the sweet spot after one day of finally understanding and being excited for Mastodon... T minus two days until I'm jaded?

lol 4 CPUs at 100% on the app server

Dear people of Octodon, please forgive my ignorance - I only signed up here because it is big, up and is described as cute - but what makes Octodon good?

This morning: Wow, a fresh new social network! I can talk about my favorite things and make new friends!
Now: Oh, I'm a boring person with nothing to say.

What happens if you are on example.social, it closes and you move to new-example.social? Do you loose all your followers?

Also how did this not get the most important feature: The ability to edit Toots!

Just posting to see my own avatar. (I'm vain like that)

does a search for a username span all instances?

The whole thing is burning down, but as nginx is cool, it's just using the old server. Neat.

Anyone like an Android app for Mastodon? I tried the popular ones, some crash, some incomplete. So far just the mobile site, saved to my home screen (PWA) works great.

tfw you get high as fuck and end up the next day with the 5th largest instance of the cool kids' new social network

CASHIER: thatll be $25.49
ME: do you accept toots?
CASHIER: ...
ME: ...
