@[email protected] Thank you. Unfortunately, those good compositions don’t come out often.

@[email protected] wow!

@damonp thank you!

@[email protected] thank you!

@[email protected] yes, that pumpkin had a heavy night 🙂

@[email protected] nice sound! I like it!

@[email protected] A great place we’ve discovered a couple of years ago, but could try only today. And it’s definitely approved!

@[email protected] it is. My wife got another kind of cake, but it was over before I could take my phone for the photo 😆

@[email protected] great foods!

@[email protected] it is. Or, better, it was 😉

@[email protected] good idea!

@[email protected] I’ve been delaying this for months. Now, it’s time to send it, before it will be too late.
I think I’ll disclose the contents of this e-mail, but only when everything well be over or sorted out.

@[email protected] true. The smartphone hasn’t done a great job here.
Still, I like to think that the lights are “noisy” while the darkness makes the sea “silent”. That’s why I was concentrating on this message.

@[email protected] it’s happened a couple of times, in the last days. My boosts mean “hey, look here” but people, sometimes, think they’re some sorts of endorsements.
So I preferred to point it out - just to be sure of not being misunderstood 🙂

@[email protected] @[email protected] Entire instances can be blocked using the command line, but they’re using many (abandoned? loosely moderated?) instances.
We can also set the “drop posts from accounts created less than X seconds ago”. We could set a 86400 seconds - but we could lose new users, posting their introductions.

For now, I’ve blocked those instances you pointed out

@[email protected] Quoted boosts are coming on Mastodon, too: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/10/trunk-tidbits-september-2024/

Still, I don’t know how they’ll be considered by many as many Twitter users did a lot of mess with them, using them to harass people.

I totally agree with your point of view: I don’t want to judge people by a post/boost. Still, I understand why people are so “on guard” as the Fediverse is full of bad people/trolls, too.

Luckily, the world is full of good people. But, sometimes, it’s quite difficult to find them as they’re much, much more silent than the bad ones.

@[email protected] I decided to point it out on my profile, just to avoid problems/misunderstandings.

@kasperd Quote posts are coming to Mastodon (https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/10/trunk-tidbits-september-2024/). Let’s see if people will accept it. For now, many are against them as on Twitter they’ve (also) been used in a very bad way.

@[email protected] I agree. It’s one of my favourite places of the world.

@[email protected] I agree.
