I just woke up, had some coffee and I'm still dead tired.

I've updated my brief introduction to Mastodon with a new heading: "How private is "Private"?": gist.github.com/joyeusenoelle/

I've reprinted it here because it should be read.

I cannot stress this enough: Private toots are not encrypted or secure.

The admin of your server can read any toot posted on their server, as well as any toot sent to a user on their server. This is a necessary security precaution.

My name is Florian, a web developer from the Arnhem, Netherlands area. My hobbies include languages, audio engineering, reading, composing and just havin' a good ol' time. I'm a fully blind developer and my guide dog and I get up to a bunch of mischief. Accessibility is a topic dear to my heart and I make it a point to keep my (web) accessibility skills and knowledge up to snuff. I occasionally give talks on the subject as well. Come say Hi some time! :) #introductions

I hated gnome shell with passion at first, now I really like it.

@mashiron@niu.moe For me it is. You decide for yourself.

@schlink Audacious. Simple and does the music playing very well.

@tatterberry My account has been disabled for months, not until yesterday I finally bothered to delete it. Yay me. And you too!

I have a hard time finding people on here. I remember the bird site being a little like this when I was starting out. Not sure it was quite this hard tho.

There are times when I simply want to strangle whoever put together crontab's format.

While I'm at it, whoever designed the arguments to find, as well.

GAH.

@kurtm @Gargron

Wow is that article full of backhanded compliment and general ignorance.

Also, no, Mastodon is not developed by a single person, it has 451 contributors.

And no, Mastodon is not the only one decentralization effort, and certainly not the first. Try GnuSocial and Friendica which existed long before Mastodon (with which Mastodon is actually compatible) and also projects like Diaspora*, with their own proto.

This guy clearly has little understanding of what he's talking about.

@browneyedgirl Thats all they understand about the problem.

@Zoonie I know the feeling. They're always innocuous.
