[13:17] <cmaloney> Good morning
[13:17] <_stink__> yo
[13:20] <rick_h> morning
[18:30] <cmaloney> Apparently PZMeyers tweeted about octodon.social
[18:30] <cmaloney> and now people are joining it like crazy
[18:30] <cmaloney> I know this because I'm on the list of instant follows on that server
[18:30] <cmaloney> and my notifications / email messages are pegged
[18:31] <jrwren> weird.
[18:31] <mrgoodcat> that happened when bryan lunduke joined mastodon.social
[18:31] <cmaloney> Yeah
[18:32] <mrgoodcat> i went back to twitter after a while
[18:32] <mrgoodcat> i liked the idea in theory, but twitter is just easier
[18:32] <cmaloney> That's because I wasn't on mastodon yet
[18:32] <cmaloney> but now I am so it's all good. :)
[18:33] <mrgoodcat> lol
[18:33] <mrgoodcat> when mastodon had its big explosion i saw a bunch of blog posts about server operators that were suddenly hit with massive hosting bills
[18:33] <cmaloney> Yeah
[18:33] <cmaloney> I contribute to my provider's Patreon
[18:33] <mrgoodcat> and there was always the questionof what happened if your server went down
[18:34] <cmaloney> You hop to another server
[18:36] <mrgoodcat> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[18:37] <greg-g> cmaloney: other than mastodon.social, do you have a recommendation for a good server to join?
[18:37]  * greg-g is late to the party
[18:38] <cmaloney> octodon.social is decent
[18:38] <cmaloney> (That's the one that I'm on)
[18:38] <greg-g> er yeah, /me was misreading backscroll
[18:39] <cmaloney> There's a joinmastodon.org as well
[18:39] <cmaloney> And https://instances.social/
[18:40] <cmaloney> Which gives you a questionaire about what you're looking for and picks a site
[18:40] <greg-g> huh, neat
[18:40] <greg-g> so much bootstrap in the world :(
[18:40] <cmaloney> Yeah
[18:41]  * greg-g is a SJW
[18:41] <greg-g> https://instances.social/list#lang=en&allowed=&prohibited=nudity_nocw,pornography_nocw,sexism,racism,illegalContentLinks,spam,advertising,hateSpeeches,harrassment&users=
[18:42] <cmaloney> https://i.write.codethat.sucks/about
[18:42] <cmaloney> ;)
[18:47] <cmaloney> greg-g: Which instance did you pick?
[18:47] <greg-g> stalling
[18:47] <greg-g> :)
[18:47] <greg-g> have 4 different things going atm :P
[18:47] <greg-g> #multitaskingfail
[18:47] <cmaloney> This is the most important. Chop chop. :)
[18:50] <greg-g> I need to find that "how to pick an instance" blog post I saw on planet debian
[18:51] <greg-g> https://carlchenet.com/the-importance-of-choosing-the-correct-mastodon-instance/
[18:55] <cmaloney> Ah, right
[18:55] <cmaloney> Honestly they make it really easy to move accounts
[18:55] <cmaloney> you can export your following list / mutes / blocks
[18:56] <cmaloney> So if you mis-fire, you can still move with relative ease
[18:56] <cmaloney> no forwarding address though.
[18:56] <greg-g> oh, so others following you will have to update? makes sense but bummer
[18:56] <cmaloney> Yeah
[18:57] <cmaloney> But you can also put something like "MOVED" in your name and leave where you've moved to
[18:57] <greg-g> yeah
[20:19] <brousch> No pornography? Have people forgotten what the Internet is for?!
[20:20] <jrwren> maybe CC licenced pornography is acceptable?
[20:21] <cmaloney> Pretty sure that is a small proportion of pornography
[20:22] <jrwren> i dunno... i bet a lot of /r/gonewild would license that way if you asked 'em too. :p
[20:24] <greg-g> jrwren: twitter/reddit is better for prono anyways, no need for it on my matodon :)
[20:24] <greg-g> +s
[20:26] <jrwren> no need for porn on twitter IMO. I was just commenting on the "FREEDOM!!!!" associativity of the service :)
[20:32] <cmaloney> https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/sof/d/killer-full-stack-coder-wanted/6322780204.html
[20:32] <cmaloney> I think the ALL CAPS really sells it
[20:34] <jrwren> damn! looking for a KILLER like that! I guess in sfbay people can just admit to being killers!
[20:55] <_stink__> gahahaha
[20:56] <_stink__> this is great
[21:02] <greg-g> sad
[21:03] <_stink__> just shared with my work peeps
[21:03] <_stink__> no one is laughing yet
[21:04] <_stink__> does it hit too close to home for valley people?
[21:05] <greg-g> heh, I should share in our staff channel
[21:05] <jrwren> i jsut had to lookup C-w again for use in bash over M-BS
[21:05] <jrwren> lol
[21:06] <_stink__> hah
[21:06] <greg-g> "To confirm your inscription, please click on the following link "
