My problem is that I am probably the least tech-knowledgeable person here, but I am at least trying to make some sense of it. Most of you seem to have a strong background in developing/coding/programming, etc, and I am just not that dude.. lol

@IndignantBastard It's certainly not overly complicated, I think it's just lacking a good introduction of how everything works. I can see where you're coming from and hopefully they work on that.

If you have questions people seem to happily respond when you toot them into the void!

@oyasumi Everyone here has been extraordinarily helpful, which is why I love it.

@oyasumi

thanks for that link:) Cheers

@oyasumi @IndignantBastard I'm also not a tech person. I'm a writer actually. If it wasn't for my husband I wouldn't have figured it out. 😉

@_knives_out_ @oyasumi

I'm a bad writer, actually.

@IndignantBastard How so?

@_knives_out_

That's just the reality unfortunately.

@IndignantBastard Well, most writers think they're bad, so you're probably not as bad as you think. i
It's the ones who are too full of themselves that I tend to ignore.

@IndignantBastard @_knives_out_ I wish I knew how to expand this in Tusky. but I don't. so I'll say I agree.

and also I have enjoyed IB's flow of creative effluvium very much. it's been one of the high points of my timeline thus far.

right up there with pineapple.

@frankiesaxx @_knives_out_

I have no idea what effluvium even means but I enjoy new words very much. Thanks for the compliment, Frankie.

#MastodonSpringTimeEffluvium

@_knives_out_ @IndignantBastard I think I meant ephemera. not effluvium. as in ephemeral manifestations that exist momentarily in my timeline and then vanish on the relentless social progression.

I am drunk. and typing on my phone.

@IndignantBastard @frankiesaxx if you're drunk and able to do this I am impressed. I once used Indonesia instead of I don't. lol.

@IndignantBastard @frankiesaxx I also feel I'd like to have conversations with you drunk or not. This is amazing diction.

@deadsuperhero

Thanks, Sean. Very helpful.

@IndignantBastard It has a lot of potential, like many of the federated apps that have come before it.

What makes it different is that it is comparably very easy to use when measured against the likes of projects like #Diaspora and #Hubzilla. This isn't to bash on either of those projects - they're great, but they generally lean more towards long-form content, and I'm not sure I've really seen any native mobile apps from either project.

@deadsuperhero

Again, very helpful information, Sean. I don't know what any of that means but I have something to draw from when I research it. I appreciate it, truly.

@IndignantBastard I'm a little stoned, so forgive me if my rambling is incoherent. :joy:

@trwnh

Cool. thank you.

@PicklesTFC

I have no idea what I'm doing which is usually the case with pretty much everything.

@IndignantBastard Onward through the fog!

@y

I like your summary, Yunan:) Pretty cheeky

@IndignantBastard hey, how do you know my real name xD

@y

I'm under your bed, that's how.

#MastodonScaryMonster

@IndignantBastard that's interesting since i put my mattress on the floor, you can't be under it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

@y @IndignantBastard I'll do the same here, just in case...

@emery you should, lol. it puts away the anxiety that comes from having a bed that has a space under it.

@emery

Yes, that is what other sites are missing--at least in my experience. The community feel of it is what I like and the fact that you can create your own instance. You guys know more about it than I ever will but IMO, this makes more sense for being able to connect with people rather than being on massive sites like FaceCROOK, etc.

@IndignantBastard Ya! I feel like I'm out of the Facebook/Twitter friends bubbles

@emery

I honestly never liked either. I like it cozy.
