@tastytentacles Has my follow request from my fedi.absturztau.be account come through?
@koyu Would you mind allowing pinafore.social as a frontend for koyu.space? I used to be able to use koyu.space through it before the switch to whitelisting.
Can anyone recommend any #Pleroma instances?

@aidalgol Yes, and also...
"3 years"? Is this person aware that we all learn everyday of our life but not at the same pace, and that everyone is different?
Everyone can change, no matter how long it takes them to do so. If you wanna stay away from someone because you had enough, fine. That's understandable. But no need to hate on them and try to make them look "bad" in public. Just forget them and move on.
So it seems my instance admin is the target of witch hunting for... not toeing the right lines and being falsely equated with nazis, as far as I can tell.
Guess I need to start sharing this around: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjMPJVmXxV8

fediblock, it's a long one
@kyzh I just want everyone to know who might read this that I have never expiernced an iota of racism from leonie or koyu space.
They are a wonderful and tolerant instance that appears to have the utmost respect for minorities and LGBT groups.
Lets focus this energy on people who really deserve it and unify, not divide!

“What happens when a medium that communicates largely through violent content becomes obsessed with realism? Traumatic experiences for developers is what happens.
As "AAA" studios achieve evermore believable violence, the artists creating these games are pressured to study the real thing. For years, developers have been poring over authentic imagery involving hangings, stabbings, slaughter and death.
They do this without any psychological guidance or structural care. Rarely are they even warned what they're in for. And as companies like Naughty Dog try to make us feel like we're actually murdering somebody, the question must be asked... who the hell even wants that?”

@cwebber Out of interest, did you ever write a followup to your essay "Non-Commercial doesn't compose (and it never will)" to discuss similar issues with "No-Harm" licenses?

@koyu Is koyu.space SSL set up correctly? Firefox says "parts of this page are not secure".
Dear koyu.space denizens, what are the best @koyu emoji for denoting sarcasm?

oh god we're on this discourse again
yes if you develop software it is morally right to add features that prevent bad actors (like fascists) from using it
but if a developer does not add such a feature when you believe they could have, it does not immediately make them a fascist and you cannot go out yelling on fedi that the developer is a fascist when clearly they are not
Oh goodie, more user-hostile abuse of your web browser.

Is there a way for individual users to block entire instances, either on mastodon or pleroma?

Facebook has just bought giphy.com for $400m.
A website which hosts free gifs. Valued at four-hundred million dollars. And the majority of those gifs come from media created by costumers/writers/mic operators/camera techs etc. who don't see the value they create normally, let alone in hyper-inflated purchases like this.
How does this make any sense? It doesn't.
How do I look at the list of postts I've favourited?
Can anyone recommend any online co-op games? (I've already got Left 4 Dead 2 and Borderlands 2.)
