Can someone point me at an example code of conduct for slack groups etc, which lists some of the more minor toxic behaviours of online communities.

I remember seeing one and I thought it was really good but I don't remember where it was.

RT @random_walker@twitter.com: The Norwegian consumer protection agency has released a detailed, damning report on anti-privacy dark patterns, and opines that they may be in violation of the GDPR. It's great when government agencies are up on the latest developments in tech & research. https://fil.forbrukerradet.no/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/2018-06-27-deceived-by-design-final.pdf

This is a legit question.

If a major stumbling block for people joining Mastodon-based instances is that their friends aren't here, then why do we not yet have a way for folks to connect their Twitter accounts to fetch statuses from the folks they're following?

There's a lot of API hell, yes. But, we're halfway there with the crossposters (which provide a valuable service), so why not go further?

Dungeons & Dragons is in the business of selling fantasy. Not the stuff with the magic and monsters -- the part where you *actually believe* that you and several other likeminded adults will be able to coordinate your schedules on a regular basis.

RT @ebaerbaerbaer@twitter.com: Me: We might need to take a full sprint to take care of a bit of technical debt.

Business: That would slow us down. Full speed ahead!

Me: Keep paddling team!

I think I'm going to start pronouncing "cloud" as "clown" at work and see if anyone notices.

Right now I'm kinda wishing I could put @qDot@twitter.com and @RealSexyCyborg@twitter.com in the same room so they could make sex toys together and I don't know if that's a good or bad thought.

Google font: they serve the font file to your visitors. It's a file transfert. So, they collect a log entry on their server with their IP/browser/where-they-came-from/etc... and because many dev use Google-font, they have a map of most of your visitors move accross the internet.

You can read my "second fight" on this article I published in 2016 : https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/article390/my-fight-against-cdn-libraries

Developers, do not embed Google’s products on your sites & compromise the privacy of your visitors.

#CleanUpTheWeb & strip your site of tracking devices by Google, Facebook, etc. to make the web safer. Yes, that includes Google Fonts loaded from Google’s servers.

someone on discord was complaining about muscly women characters so i doodled this out of spite lmao

And then there's the accessibility! We've got a (bad) image description UI and people make "add image descriptions for visually impaired users" posts that do the rounds all the time, but VISUALLY IMPAIRED PEOPLE AREN'T HERE because there are many things about the Mastodon UI that are not usable to people with screenreaders!
