@KitRedgrave @aescling also “kindness” in this case is mostly just a matter of keeping the project scope manageable lol
@KitRedgrave @aescling cutting dependencies is slated for code review, but there are few features in mastodon that nobody needs
@KitRedgrave @aescling right now the only major feature which i am actively interested in developing (and this will be a long‐term project if we do decide to do it) is pseud support; otherwise i would say my priorities are:
• making the code better at what it already does
• documenting the code better
• making mastodon play better with other technologies; reducing the amount of (usually poorly‐documented) mastodon‐specific conventions
• increasing user agency wrt their own data, what they can do with it, and what kind of information they can send out
long‐term i also might want to build a frontend which isn’t react/redux, but i really don’t much care about mastodon frontend development atm
@KitRedgrave @aescling for a walk down to the corner store (a 7‐11); we’ll grab a Slurpee® or maybe a hot chocolate if it’s cold

anyway i read a powerpoint from some Ruby presentation on new internationalization features in 2.4 and one of the slides was just titled “Isn't ASCII-only Case Conversion Enough?”
it never ceases to surprise me the sheer ignorance of programmers when it comes to text
you’re a programmer, all you *do* is text
i do love how it is like, a romance song
for an anime about Ash and Goh
“We’ll do everything together: Learning, training, never stopping! (Go! Go!)
Anywhere you’re going, so am I! Take me on a journey to your heaarrrrtt…”
i submitted an issue to mastodon to deal with this although i’m not optimistic about it actually getting fixed
oh, apparently homebrew sets up the initial database cluster that way, thanks homebrew 🙄
