@maya the first; a motto is too short to represent anything to someone who doesn't already know what it means
@socrates eh, it's a larger issue with the fediverse honestly; there are people who i don't like and nobody here follows who are nevertheless permanent fixtures on our federated timeline because they make posts which get lots of replies
i don't like that pattern, i think it elevates the wrong kinds of posts, but i don't have any ideas off the top of my head on how to change it; mastodon needs a "reply only to original audience" post setting honestly
as far as posts from your instance goes, i've never seen anything horribly objectionable and it is nice to click the post and see that you're on top of it :). at the same time, if it weren't for the reply we probably never would have seen the post in the first place, so you know. it's up to you how you want to balance that and i won't have a problem either way
@socrates thanks for your hard work and i do appreciate it; just wanted to make sure you were aware of the federation consequences of replying to a post also federating the original :)
@socrates actually i don't think followers-only would help, it would have to be mentioned-only
@socrates you may want to consider making those posts followers-only? (your call whether visibility of the post or not federating subpar content is more important)
sure, buddy, people are not limited to the decisions of union management and could go wild and undermine the entire negotiations process, but also that would be foolish as fuck and mean they wouldn't have enough money to live, so
@noelle @FirstProgenitor there's a discord but no mastodon point of contact i don't think
@jupe this is pithy and inaccurate but a book is just a poem where every line is a chapter
start by thinking about how you want your ideas to be structured and how you might put them together in a way which “rhymes” and “resonates”. get a solid structure that you feel confident in (but don't force yourself to follow it too closely). figure out what the structure is “saying” and why it's important
then just fill it out with enough words to make it work

#Ao3TagOfTheDay: I did not follow APA format
@bloodwrites @Satsuma @admin (just using lists + the advanced column interface is what i do but:
1. it's important not to forget to add someone to a list after you follow them!! lol
2. it really depends on what app you use as far as how ergonomic this is on mobile)
also if you're on an instance of 100 people and they each follow people on 100 mutually-exclusive instances that's still only a network of 10,000. how much scale do you need
