R.L. Dane :Debian: :OpenBSD: 🍵<p><a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/tootlog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tootlog</span></a> script is working again. Had to just remove <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fosstodon</span></a> from the accounts that <code>toot</code> was logged into, as <code>toot whoami</code> doesn't seem to work anymore once your account is migrated out :'(</p><p>I think I will update the script to give a sum for each account, as well as a total. I probably won't present that level of details in my toots, though.</p>

Mike Stone<p>Just a heads up for those of you who support us in keeping the lights on. Patreon is now using <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Apple</span></a>&#39;s in-app purchase system. That means if you choose to donate in the future, 30% of what you donate is going to go to Apple and not <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Fosstodon</span></a>. If you login to the web page instead of using the app that won&#39;t be the case.</p>
Mike Stone<p>In light of today&#39;s <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Twitter</span></a> outages, I just thought now would be a good time to remind everybody that even though <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Fosstodon</span></a> is an invite only instance, any member of our community can create an invite. If you know someone you feel would enjoy being a part of our community, don&#39;t hesitate to invite them.</p>
Linux Is Best<p>My Fedi Requirements:</p><p>1) Must not have a US-Domain Extension</p><p>2) Must not be hosted in the United States</p><p>3) Uses CherryPick or Misskey (Mastodon is a last resort)</p><p>4) Must be OK with people who write in English.</p><p>5) Must have at minimum a 2,000-character limit. This simple list is more than 500, for example, so 2,000 may sound like a lot, but it's not.</p><p>6) Must be well connect. - The less fragmentation, the better. I want to have no problem following people.</p><p>7) No hate speech or illegal activity </p><p>Number 6 is the problem, because of sites like Fosstodon or Mastodon Art, for example, that blacklist damn near every possible site, left and right. Go back to Reddit, if that is your goal. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Misskey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Misskey</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Fedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedi</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Reddit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Reddit</span></a></p>
