@foone not without its flaws, but a damn sight better than the garbage that the techbros keep producing.

@foone It's a social network for people to be human. That's what those other networks don't get.

@foone It also can't be banned. Another benefit of decentralized social media.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. No Musk hanging around in the air in here.

@foone Agreed and Sharkey is better than Mastodon. I just wish there was an Android app for it.

@foone it feels so much more isolated though. none of my irl friends are on it which is part of the problem.

@foone kinda have to agree and I gotta say as a long time twitter user it feels a bit weird to be on social media saying nice things about social media rather than complaining about it

eliotreyna , vor 2 Monaten

@foone Well... GNUSocial/StatusNet was the bedrock of the microblogging fediverse, and Mastodon spread the word so far.

Once a week or so, I go back into Xitter via browser and am reassured that there is nothing of value I have missed.

sadly this didn't get put to the use I was hoping.
My screen was facing the wrong way, so Elon didn't see it.

@foone we're going to need more information than that you know

foone OP , vor 2 Monaten

I met Elon Musk, but it wasn't on purpose. I had this tweet up on my screen but sadly he was on the wrong side, so he just got to see the back of my laptop, with my trans pride cool crab sticker.

To be fair, he can probably be baffled by that sticker, too.

tursilion , vor 2 Monaten

@foone I haven't met him, but I was 10 feet away from him. It was my first day as a contractor at the Gigafactory in California, and I wasn't comfortable that I'd be able to answer any questions if he asked, so I stayed out of the way so as not to get my boss in trouble. He was getting a show of all the various stages of the battery in production.

It was an interesting job, though I didn't stay long. It was neat working on Beckhoff equipment in a factory environment instead of animatronics like I was used to, and learning the various stages of production was neat.

@foone Torn between Cool Crab & “Rainbow Save Icon” as my fave.

(Yes, I am old enough that I predate the disks that became the save icon. But still. Rainbow Save Icon!)

@foone I feel like the cool crab is a reference I'm missing??? I tried doing a search, but 95% of the results are posts from you without any explanation???

foone OP , vor 2 Monaten

@lukeshu okay so:
The cool crab is a bit of clipart from Print Shop Deluxe. It's just an amusing image. The youtuber Lazy Game Reviews has featured it in several videos, and I've also adopted it as a sort of mascot.

There's really not any sort of meaning behind it. It's just a bit of funny clipart someone at Broderbund someone drew back in 1993
