Are you calling the server list on joinmastodon.org "the federation"? Because it's not; it's literally just a list. Nothing about the list tells you about any actual federation between instances. Without a doubt there are instances on that list that are federated with ones not on that list and vice versa. It's not even the only list out there.

This would be a good thing, though I think it's trickier than it appears:

  • How arbitrary are "best before" and "expires on" labels and how do they differ from food to food?
  • How do the labels themselves differ from each other and how to do they differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction?
  • Could acknowledging that "expired" food is still good cause expiry dates to just be extended? How far could they be extended before food actually is dangerous past the label?
  • How does liability work when someone gets sick from "expired" food? Does it change when it's part of a structured donation system?

Lots of comments already telling you to stay home so I don't think I need to. What I will say is if you don't want to contribute to the growing number of variants, you'll stay home. Variants largely arise from mutations in the virus during replication. Humans are virus-replication machines. If you're infected you could be carrying a new variant right now and the only way to stop it is to let it die inside you. Your body's immune system will already be in full swing and be in the best position to deal with it as opposed to an uninfected person.

Don't contribute to the endemicity of COVID.

My default sort is Hot because I thought it sorted by upvotes/likes. Is that not the case?

There's nothing wrong with being right all the time, but relationships need more than just the exchange of facts. If all people know you for is the guy who is right all the time (or needs to be right all the time), then maybe you're neglecting the other aspects of those relationships. There needs to be other things people remember you for.

Fleur Delacour says it best in the movie:

Don't try to understand it.

Looking through the cached files I've found at least one image file that's 694x694px, not exactly thumbnail size.

I remember this issue from Sync for Reddit. It happened on every page that loaded content including the sub/community feed.

Is this a repost? I've seen this exact same post somewhere.

Anyway, SimpleX may not be decentralized OOTB, but can be made to be since their relays are self-hostable. It should be as simple as spinning up an instance and changing the url in app.

 
  1. Exclude explicit software bugginess or missing features
  2. Include experiences or knock-on effects that may have arisen from (1)
  3. Comparisons to Reddit are ok. We know the reasons for the differences, but this is just about expressing yourself
