Swimming through the void
Twitter has gone to shit
Severe structural problems exist with Mastodon and its design?
Whatever [dons sunglasses] I'm just resting on Beach Woke
mastodon is like a rose-tinted view of twitter where no one argues with each other, everyone is productive in free and equal dialogue - building each other up in enthusiastic reciprocation
it's beautiful. and it won't last long. but for a moment, it is what it is
@mala This is even relevant to my continuing belief that we should just fucking appropriate Photoshop's source code and make it open source by flagrant law breaking rather than laboriously build GIMP.
Guys: Mastodon is not run by an overcapitalized POS company. It's a bunch of servers run by a small group of volunteers. And they have created a network that, in character count alone, surpasses bird site.
TWITTER DON'T READ THIS Show more
The ironic content warnings which I am starting to notice seem clever, in part because they frame the conversation around having warnings in the first place as something other than the default rigid/authoritarian/stodgy perception which their critics have given them. They become a fluid part of speech instead of an external artificiality imposed to limit it. Will be interesting to see how they evolve as part of the inherent discourse/culture of this site.
the first Max Payne has one of my favourite endings. "Woden was there in the crowd, standing by the sidelines. It wouldn't be over until the man with the patch would say so. He'd say the right words, I knew he would. He'd better. Woden grinned smugly, it was the grin of a winner. That made two of us."
.@Nomenklatura I find that I am typing in tidy little 140-char packets, too. Wait, I’m running out of screen, time to finish up this tweet… what?
Really loving the public timeline to be honest
I won't tweet politics on here because I know people use this as a safe zone from t hat
I am trained like a dog to only process 140 characters at a time. Find my eyes glazing over 500 character tweets that I shouldn't be glazing over
Feeling in a distinctly 2013 mood because of this place
We're fucking doing this. We're getting down to brass tracks and Twitter can lick my brass balls
Back to basics
Holy fucking christ, I can subtweet the void
