So some of you already know I have been checking out other social media/blogging sites since the announcement came down. I tried. I really did. But there are two things that will keep me away from any social media site.
Character Limits – I am a writer. There’s nothing I can do with 500 characters or less. It’s just too fucking Orwellian. I wanted to like Mastodon. I love how it is user controlled and decentralized. But they need to get rid of the character limit. Want to talk about stifling expression? Don’t tell me to spread it on multiple posts. That’s just too awkward.
Mobile Only – Sorry, I’m old and I have a desktop with a 42″ inch screen so I can read shit. Also makes for pretty pictures. I gotta be able to do it sitting at my desk.
So anyone else have trouble with pillowfort sending registration keys? I sent them money and it has been over 24-hours. Not complaining too much, I assume they are mighty busy right now.
Just read the part where they send out keys the Friday after donation. My bad.
