It sounds annoying as fuck. I hate when my friends send audio messages in messaging apps.

Funny thing is that the mainstream threads audience would probably do more harm to the mastodon ecosystem by orders of magnitude.
There is a big cultural disconnect. I’m active in both and they are very different communities by and large.
Absolutely spot on teardown of this joke article.
They really have just given up on being a good search engine at this point huh?
Well I sure have. Especially before multiple servers defederated with Lemmygrad and Hexbear.
As if tankies aren't constantly simping for both Russia and China on here.
A little history refresher on the origin of the term
The term "tankie" was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to crush the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring uprising, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.
So specifically being a tankie and supporting fascist bullshit go hand in hand and always have.
Being that the exterior is some sort of stucco/earthen kind of material, it would have been refinished on the outside multiple times in 600 years. There's buildings around 800 years old where I live that are in great condition because they've been well maintained. Also it's pretty typical for old religious buildings to have been added onto and modified in phases. Quite a lot of the big old churches in Europe changed in design and grew in size over 100s of years, for example.
Definitely sucks trying to find good content in other languages. I'm a native english speaker, but live in the EU now and I'd like to watch more content in the local language to help with my learning. It's just difficult to come by.
Really? I've heard it kinda sucks these days. I used to use it years back though and am a big Firefox supporter.
Yep I remember this pattern of behavior distinctly from last time.
One of the big ones that sticks out is you start seeing a lot of people claiming to be democrats or left aligned showing up all of a sudden and being big time concern trolls and talking about sitting out the election and/or claiming that there's no difference between voting democrat or republican, which is demonstrably absolute horse shit.
And just a lot of added vitriol. It seems like even politically unrelated discussions get meaner and more argumentative. I expect it's just gonna get worse as we get closer to November. It's only the beginning February. Ugh.
That’s how you know everything’s going great
