@OpinionatedGeek @d3z A bit of active moderation should help to avoid the hassles in dealing with other instances.

Sometimes I regret the tech bit, but that wasn't initially intended to be active limitation; just a legacy of coming from the NI Tech Slack.

@d3z @marramgrass It's good to have the migration facility though. Before that, there was that feeling of "am I really sure this is the instance I'll be on for the long term?" I had been hedging with this and mastodon.social, but my account over there is redirecting to here now.

@vinnycoyne that so fits with the movies seeming to be in an unspecified time. I loved the ambiguity of it.

A great day

@Moltz is this @jamesthomson? Cause it looks exactly like James Thomson when I saw him talk at a conference.

@d3z they don’t have the baggage we have. I’ve seen some of our interns diving into the shitstorm and feeling like there’s great choice and something for everyone.

For me, I’m used to a simpler time and the choice is overwhelming.

@otfrom The Local Timeline is something we could embrace and I can't see that being possible on mastodon.social

@otfrom When you say "we should probably have more smaller instances" do you mean we as a community should have a single account on a smaller instance, or we as individuals should have multiple accounts across multiple instances?

I'm probably in agreement whichever you meant 🙂

I like the idea of being in multiple smaller interest-focussed instances, and being able to enjoy the full discussion of those instances as well as the Fediverse in general.

@amyworrall I'm using the official app on my phone and it's been grand. I’ve just launched it on macOS for the first time in a long time too; I think it initially didn't work on macOS cause I wasn't even logged in but it seems to be working now. Might be a Catalyst install.

@nivrig I’ve not been looking too hard. Saving for a new house, and been very busy with work and stuff.

@nivrig let me know when you’re doing something with it. Even non-working.

I’d still kill for a 6128 (not plus).

@nivrig next time you go to a skip take me with you!

@nivrig seriously? You found that in a skip? It was it a skip called eBay and you’re trying to conceal a purchase from the significant other?

@bigzaphod I tried that once. I was supposed to transition to another AD, but the withdrawal from Cymbalta was too bad and I had to just go back on it. In retrospect “You’ll feel withdrawal effects from the Duloxetine immediately, but the new ADs will take a couple of weeks to build up in your system” was never going to work for me!

@bigzaphod you ain’t getting temps like that in Ireland! You also don’t get too much below 32F in winter.
