I have criticised
the diversity
that was in
your conference
and which
you were probably
putting off
til later
Forgive me
it was terrible
so white
and so male

Anyway here is an Olive branch 🌿, a guide to help doing better in the future: https://medium.com/samsung-internet-dev/help-someone-has-pointed-out-my-conference-has-diversity-issues-c1162a1e8d4c

i'm want! a phone with a slidey keyboard! or a phone case to add a slidey keyboard to an existing phone!

the internet is not a competition to prove how smart you are

i compulsively like most toots that are directed at me. i’m trying to be more intentional about which ones i favorite/like.

hi I wish the CW show more button had a keyboard shortcut or at least weren't so small!!

mastodon tip:

definitely consider using a cw as a subject line over threads of toots even if they don't need a cw

makes it way easier to know what your talking about when we see "Harry Potter" or something in the CW instead of just stumbling upon the fourth paragraph in a thread without context 👍

Have some programming skills and have thought about contributing to @mastodon?

Here's a good issue for you to try and implement, you'll need to know Ruby and HAML (it's like HTML).

@keverets Definitely!

And at the same time, is that such a bad thing? Like. Maybe growing by people slowly trickling in isn't a horrible terrible thing, maybe it's just absolutely fantastic? :D
