@plsburydoughboy I've been thinking of trying it. Any experience to share?
@bvtsang It is never a great time for you to try to infect innocent bystanders with Backstreet Boys music! Get thee behind me!
@staticsafe @thor Me too!
Is it possible to add a box with an image in the sidebar of a #Mediawiki wiki?
I'm not sure I should spend time transcribing every tiny appearance Cory Doctorow has on every podcast, but I found his description of the internet on the Imaginary Worlds podcast a very good and succint one, so I transcribed his part; about 3 minuttes :) https://corydoctorow.miraheze.org/wiki/Talking_about_contestable_futures_on_the_Imaginary_Worlds_podcast

#tip Individuals can block entire instances. Just pick an individual from the instance in question, go to their profile, and open up the menu you would use to mute, block, or report them. Under these options is another one: hide all posts from <instance>. You'll be asked to confirm, just in case. Once you pull the trigger, refresh your feed. You won't see material from the instance you just blocked.
@daggertooth I like Tusky much more than Mastalab, just FYI to anyone reading this thread
@falgsc I know the feeling! All the best to you, my friend! :)
@falgsc The homeless people didn't go hungry. Hunger doesn't care why, and if you're hungry enough you don't either. I'm glad there are many reasons why people do good things, becouse then more people do more good things :)
OMG! I got my first @Liberapay supporter already! You guys! I can't believe it! :D
I've never seen really NSFW pics here on the fediverse before (at least not without CW), and suddenly there's 5-6 almost in a row in the federated timeline. What's up?
Oh, and aproops nothing: what is being done to make sure that all the pornbot spammers on birdsite doesn't come here and ruin everything any time soon?
PPPS: What part of the talk do you think I should highlight as a quote at the top of the page?
I've finnished transcribing one of Cory Doctorow's most important talks: How to break the Internet, destroy democracy and enslave the human race (or not).
Do you care about a free and just society? Then you need to watch/read this! Software rules the world https://corydoctorow.miraheze.org/wiki/How_to_break_the_Internet,_destroy_democracy_and_enslave_the_human_race_(or_not)
PS: I'd love your help on the wiki! Read how here: https://corydoctorow.miraheze.org/wiki/Meta
PPS: Do you appreciate my work? I'd appreciate your support on my new @Liberapay, if you can! :) https://liberapay.com/forteller/
@sleepy what did you do right now?
PSA
Please know that administration and moderation of an online community is a thankless, never ending job.
It can brutalize a person, few are ever thanked or appreciated and it can be a terrible source of burn out for those 'in charge'.
Please be kind to your admin/moderation team(s) and thank them now and again.
Kind words and a simple ๐ค go a long, long way towards their continued heath.
