The smell of baking bread :catjam:

Gotta punch some bread dough

I'm making shokupan bread this time

Just to reiterate in relation to Gab getting hacked, I’m not aware of any vulnerabilities in Mastodon at the moment and based on what I have seen in their code modifications the vulnerabilities they have are the ones they themselves introduced (along with never porting security patches from us)

Do you think you can easily summarize your server's rules in a flat list of bullet points?

That would make it simpler for mobile apps to display and easier for people to read

If you have received a notification from Crowdin about 1,962 new strings for translation, please disregard. I simply changed the connected GitHub branch. That branch rename is quite a bit of trouble.

I went to two different stores only to find out the pancakes I wanted were gone from both ????

I'm making pancakes

It is done

Google has suspended Element (@matrix) from the Play Store for "Sexual Content and Profanity". Basically same story as with Subway Tooter a while back. Element is to Matrix as Chrome is to the web. Curiously, Chrome is still on the Play Store.

A long time ago this was the default profile picture on Mastodon

I finally did it... I wrote an official blog post about Mastodon 3.3.0. Sorry for the delay

Heads up: If you run your Mastodon server from what was previously known as the "master" branch you'll need to switch to the "main" branch

I'm 28 now :fatyoshi:

@4ioskd @grishka "Contributed" is a very strong word. The state of Bluesky after one year is a text document that contains the description of each known decentralized protocol. That is all.

Apparently, they were picked up by the hosting company Epik which also hosts Gab and The Daily Stormer.

I’ve added a testimonials section to joinmastodon.org, I’ll keep adding quotes over time, let me know what you think

Hey, so one downside of reversible suspensions in Mastodon 3.3.0 is that due to an oversight, the suspension is only communicated to the account's followers, which is usually far from everyone who needs to know about it. Due to this, a lot of already suspended accounts keep getting reported from other servers. Until we release a fix, consider checking if the account still exists on the original server whenever possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Good morning
