@twistylittlepassages there are two metas -- the tusky meta is that some famous open source guy got mad that Tuskey sometimes pays its volunteers small amounts of money for their time even when that time doesn't lead immediately directly to tangible contributions (see tusky's explanation of the situation: https://opencollective.com/tusky/updates/tusky-contributor-response-to-nik-clayton for more info )

The Oliphant drama appears to be a misunderstanding between a user and the mod team, compounded by the main Oliphant admin's failure to communicate effectively with said user and said mod team, who they'd made competing promises to, which was then escalated by the now ex-user deciding the best course of action was a very loud and public "mods are out to get me!" thread (see: https://dotart.blog/welshpixie/anarchonina-and-oliphant-social & https://writer.oliphant.social/oliphant/a-story-to-tell & https://jorts.horse/@AnarchoNinaWrites/110975247371907452 if you want all three particpant perspectives on that one)

@soph_sol yeah its very usable by me….but prob not anyone else, haha

And I like for my books to be at least semi-finable returnable by housemates

@soph_sol makes sense! currently my books are divided between two different locations, and then im using semi-different systems with both locations bc the # of books is so different…which is to say the whole things is a mess 😆 but i want to redo it soonish!

@soph_sol oooh organizing sisters books! do you have opinions on which organizational system you’d use for her stuff??’

@soph_sol yeah i’ve done a few book reorg projects just for the fun of poking through all of my books haha (though i probably have slightly fewer books than i have files

@celli@octodon.social @Glittery @asya but however have we survived without, uh *rolls dice* anon comms drama???

@gardener i think the underscore version would prob be better but unfortunately punctuation breaks hashtags on Mastodon so that second one would just get tagged as #US

@pamela i am (hopefully) going to the farmers market tomorrow, which is just outside the grocery co-op so should be able to provide an array of food acquisition pictures!

@Glittery @celli@octodon.social @asya lol yes i am on discord also, but if you asked me how many social media sites i am on, i’d definitely say two (here and dreamwidth) it’s v firmly in the “chat/text app” category in my head haha

i got lucky that when i first joined DW it was through cdrama fandom which is a bit less “good old days”-y than the rest of the site. Don’t know what i’d do otherwise bc i’m way too old to be figuring out all these new places spinning up 😆

@Glittery @asya @purplecoww after much squinting at pockets, i do believe this is indeed what happened
