i refuse to actually ever post an introduction. instead, i will simply appear in your life one day, and act like i've always been a part of it, and you won't question it
Random thought that crossed my mind: every project NEEDS a document somewhere explaining the design decisions that were made along its development.
Instead of having people constantly ask, "why is everything a certain way?", you can point to your reasoning for why.
It also helps you figure out your *own* reasoning, and makes it easier to question or challenge the assumptions that might not be optimal.
Heeeeeere's the new Mastodon Flat CSS (MFC) theme!
Userstyles: https://userstyles.org/styles/153362
Github: https://github.com/trwnh/mastodon-flat-css
You can now select either "Midnight Blue" or "Clean Slate", OR create your own custom palette!
I've been through this kinda rigmarole before when I tried using diaspora*, and the end result was that I completely abandoned it because I wasn't getting any meaningful interactions out of it compared to Twitter. Which was a shame, because I really liked diaspora*.
The problem, of course, is that you will inevitably gravitate to whichever platform nets you more interaction. And crossposts really don't engender organic engagement. They feel robotic and distant, largely because they're just that
ugh i really hope crossposters don't slowly choke mastodon like they did to diaspora*
if you're just crossposting everything you tweet on birdsite then what even is the point of making a mastodon account? that's glorified spam at worst, and a recipe for abandonment.
also, does anyone use tablets or am i just old
if someone makes a tablet-optimized android app for mastodon then that would be cool... tbh, the pwa can be a bit janky and doesn't handle rotation very well, so columns in portrait are cut off thanks to the sidebar
