[17:18:03] <progo> If I write something on Soylent, presumably any anonymous user can read it there forever, browse to my profile, and see what else I've written.
[17:18:03] <progo> you can't do that on Twitter anymore; everything you wrote before is now worth less than it was. I'm not a Twitter user, but are any Twitter users upset about this?
[17:18:24] <progo> (assuming I don't delete my posts, and the site doesn't shut down)
[17:19:18] <progo> my sister is mildly upset she can't read certain profiles anymore. also refuses to register on Twitter :^)
[17:22:10] <fab23> progo: and on SN you can have a gold star, not just a blue tick :)
[17:22:19] <progo> ooh, I can?
[17:22:54] <progo> on my mastodon server users just give whatever badge they want to themselves as long as it has a unicode codepoint
[17:23:19] <fab23> \o/
[17:23:24] <progo> I put in my extra whatever-you-want fields for me: "Trust score: 6"
[17:24:39] <progo> https://www.bleepingcomputer.com
[17:24:39] <progo> … now everyone can see my playlists full of Enya
[17:24:39] <systemd> ^ 03Spotify reportedly makes users' private playlists public
[17:25:12] <progo> oh crap
[17:25:20] <progo> I made that joke and now I have "Anywhere Is" stuck in my head
[17:25:40] <fab23> .oO( don't use public services for private stuff )
[17:25:47] <progo> exactly
[19:40:59] <Ingar> tell your sister this was one of the reasons we didn't like twitter in the first place
[19:41:28] <Ingar> maybe I should setup a mastodon server myself
[19:47:44] * Ingar whispers "Sail Away" in progo's left ear
[20:32:15] <progo> Ingar if you need an endorsement for whitelabel mastodon hosting -- if you're into that -- my friend just setup a mastodon instance on such a service (as a customer) a few weeks ago and I could get the name
[20:32:38] <progo> I get the feeling that mastodon admins who aren't full time committed to that role get rather harried
[20:33:24] <progo> one of my projects this summer is to setup competitor software Soapbox somewhere in my pile of stuff, and see how I like that
[20:33:34] <progo> Soapbox promised 2023 is the year of filling out the documentation
[20:33:39] <progo> kinda waiting for that
[20:40:06] <Ingar> on the other hand, I have enough projects on my hands atm
[20:40:27] <Ingar> currently digitizing > 4K old slide
[20:43:23] <chromas> "but are any Twitter users upset about this?"
[20:43:38] <chromas> The answer to that is always yes, no matter the subject
[20:46:27] <Ingar> When TWitter first launched, my reaction was "the inconvenience of SMS combined with the inconvenience of a webchat"
[20:48:50] <kolie> lol
