@plasticScript I love it. I works much better for my workflow and it’s like the good old days of Gnome 2, but with a modern twist.

@ubuntupodcast would this be down that there London way?

@troubleMoney it’s not a national holiday in the USA I believe.

@fatboy Backstreet Boys, N:Sync, Five, Westlife & Take That.

@nolan I always disable ping backs so I don’t have to concern myself with ping back attacks. I do enjoy comments on the other hand. I think it’s good for readers to have a voice in response to your posts, otherwise what’s the point?

I’ve always used Akismet which always catches spam.

@AndrzejL @jason the first option should be good for me!!! Hahaha

@mike dude! You should have had a lie in! 😁

@ivan yeah, I’ve always liked mate. I often try the latest shiny thing just to see if the grass is greener, always come back to old faithful though.

@codesections I’m not sure what to make of all this. I wonder where it will leave more user oriented projects, like a Fedora.

@jmiller0 they’re really cool! Where did you get them?

Sooo #Redhat just became #Bluehat?

@amolith if an instance gets blacklisted, then no one on the instance that carried out the blacklist can communicate with anyone on the blacklisted instance.

@mike @ryandaniels @codesections @measlytwerp @ericbuijs @Batcastle

@amolith yep, myself and @mike are the admins on Fosstodon.

Our policy is to not block without good reason. Are the bots posting something that breaks our CoC, or are they becoming a neusance? Have you tried #nobot in your profiles?

We can (and we will) block, but it's usually a last resort.

@dch
I've looked at the ducky (mechanicalkeyboards.com) but they don't seem to offer UK layout, and I'd ideally like the old style L shaped enter key.

@gentoorebel
I'm an old fart hahaha

@gentoorebel
Basically I want the upside-down L shaped "enter" key.

@gentoorebel

@dch
I'm not a gamer, so will likely prefer one of the quieter ones, maybe brown as an all rounder. I'm just sick of having crap keyboards.
