The horizontal scroll bar was the missing UI element.

I recommend the latter, frankly, seeing as most of you are incredibly boring people. -

No, you might not like that the disabled scots dyke hits back, but she will not be silenced, so deal with it.
Or just block me. -

@verius It was written prior to Qvitter being a thing (mutes are a Qvitter-specific feature). Definitely something to add both in core postActiv and Mustard though, for sure. -

And yet there's still going to be people saying I'm the censorous one for not wanting The Man to show up at my doorstop and make me disappear, a la Karl :/ -

postActiv priorities: performance issues (queues in particular), reorganizing the software to run better (see issue 61, 57, 54), rewriting parts that are old to allow proper modularity (32 in particular)
Mastodon priorities: "we need to make an echo chamber to escape harassment from the people we keep bothering" -

@verius While, as I said the other day (yesterday? maybe?| wonky sleep schedules make this unclear, woo) I'm not sure there's much we can programmatically do to dissuade this, if I ever implement things to intentionally make this kind of systematic/group thing easier, please shoot me immediately. -

@verius This is why I think the serial blocklists is the way they'll go with that, it lets them have their cake and eat it too. -

@verius The only downside is to Mastodon, really, since they can't claim that proverbial moral cachet associated with free speech or federation. -

@maiyannah I don't see the downside of mastodon defederating. -

At this rate more like six days, since his income will likely be contingent on it.
(And people ask why I refuse to do a patreon for postActiv) -

Every day as they find themselves powerless to actually *silence* people, and indeed, often are themselves silenced, they clamour at Eugen's feet to defederate, or make the bad people go away, or implement serial blocklists. They'll get it, too, you can bet on it, though I think the six months lambda suggested is _hugely_ optimistic. -

What these people want, ultimately, is a place where they can "throw punches" (which they will insist is "punching up", no doubt - we've heard this violent language a lot, after all, to the point it's familiar) where the people they are "throwing punches" at, are disempowered to strike back.
We have a word for that.
That word is "oppression" -

If you interject into people's timelines uninvited they are usually not going to be pleasantly disposed to you for that fact alone, especially if you're unwanted, let alone if you do so to tell them how terrible they are.
You speak a language of exclusion and then wonder at why no one wants to deal with you. -

I wonder how long it will be before people realize that the reason others are "hostile" or "toxic" to them is usually related "what goes around, comes around" -

@aeonlamb No, I don't plan on telling adults to stop acting like children at high school. -

Those of us whom actually have sacrificed to protect and serve our communities (notice, "serve" is not in the vocabulary of modern activism) get very annoyed by keyboard warriors whom claim they have but obviously have no idea what they're talking about.
