Mastodon

Si vous êtes sur #iOS, y'a un ENORME post de blog (en anglais) de @DavidBlue@mastodon.social qui a testé toute les apps. https://bilge.world/mastodon-ios-apps Quelques autre sont mentionnés dans l'onglet Issues du github aussi. https://github.com/extratone/FediiOS/issues #mastodon

@stux@mstdn.social The explore tab would give you Dutch content if there was any

@DarkWraithLord @stux@mstdn.social What do you understand as local?

Just found out today that badsite's search doesn't even search through an image's alt text! Whereas mastodon's does, even if it's only for my posts + posts I've starred. Accessibility is definitely the most important reason I do alt text for images but the ability to find an old image-centric post via its alt text is a feature I consider quite valuable! Absurd that the multi billion dollar corporation's service doesn't have it.

@zens@merveilles.town @dredmorbius@toot.cat In other words, I'm basically talking about the Pick operating system, but with JSON semantics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pick_operating_system

Developing Mastodon, I strive to use terminology that is familiar to as many people as possible so as to not put up unnecessary barriers in understanding. For this reason I am happy that we went away from calling posts "toots". It has always been a point of friction for people. Not that I dislike branding, quite the opposite, but in my experience receiving feedback over half a decade, it had a negative effect on the platform for little benefit.

Probably not a lot of people know this now, but Mastodon's web app started out with "Publish". In 2016 a famous YouTuber jokingly offered to support Mastodon's Patreon forever if I changed the button to say "Toot" instead. Needless to say, this was a really early, and not very informed decision. The first glimpse of attention and financial support. As a non-native speaker I had no idea there was another meaning.

@DavidBlue I'm perfectly happy being called Eugene by anglophone speakers. My name has a local flavour in every language.

Feel like I'm an outlier in not caring how people pronounce my name. Any variant of the same root will do. I've been Eugen, Eugene, Евгений, Женя, Eugenio (jokingly), Eugène...

lately my mind is just [ps2 startup sound.wav]

Somebody gave our Android app a 1-star review on the Play Store because "there is LGBT" [sic]

alright Mastodon, I have a cultural question for you... I happen to be privileged to have known (and know) a great many people of a particular originality and talent - many of whom have managed to turn that talent (music production, motion graphics, and video editing are the core) into real professional lives.
