MEEPO GAME MEEPO ONESIE

I've been so caught up in code stuffs I totally forgot to like, greet all the new people coming in from Esquire and Lifehacker and what not! Hi! Welcome! Enjoy this fat Yoshi :fatyoshi:

I believe Mastodon v2.5.0 is soon to follow 😊

*logging on after working on code*

*being asked about big tiddy alf and vape ape*

Finally done! Normal operation is resumed. Once you refresh the web interface you'll see it shows if a toot has replies. And there's a link to that new apps page in the footer. And some fixes.

@theruss Oh good god, how did all of this happen

Thank you though! I'm just shocked

Mastodon: The most advanced cat sharing protocol on the internet

Most Mastodon servers are operated by people like you, out of their pocket. Check if your server has a Patreon! It's usually on the "About this instance" link, where the rules are. Support your admins, especially if they're not me!

I've just seen a troll on Twitter dismiss our animated video because of low view count, so uh, have you watched this one before? It's got cute elephants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPSbNdBmWKE

Also his coyote avatar has been rotating non-stop for 2 years. An admirable feat!

Do you like the "boop" sound you hear when you get a new notification? @jk made that. He also posts videos of cats he meets.

Welcome to all new users on mastodon.social, and all new users everywhere else on the fediverse!

I hope you have a good time and stick around. :toot:

There's these studies about how once you commit to an opinion in front of someone you're less willing to back down from it even in the face of new insights; and online in 2018 has this culture where people rush to comment on everything that happens as fast as possible, you know? Is that a good combination?

I fixed the "follow all" error on bridge.joinmastodon.org, sorry for the trouble

Here is what you can do on mastodon.social now. Like a permanent follow friday, or myspace top 8, except 4 are displayed in random order out of however many you want.

The thing to remember is that at some point in recent past nobody knew what e-mail was and people had to learn about. And before that personal computers were new and folks had to learn how to use them.

Not everything can be reduced to what you already know! Mastodon requires a tiny bit of extra knowledge because it differs from other social media platforms.

@jessiscah24 I'm sorry to hear that 😦 There are a lot of wonderful people on the fediverse who I have no idea about, so don't let that discourage you!

@jessiscah24 hello i don't remember ever blocking you or interacting with you at all so i don't understand this thank you for listening
