My goal was to write in French, but I honestly hated this language. So I would write a mixture of languages, but mostly in English.

      @AnarchoCatgirlism@cyberpunk.gay la belle ronde is a really nice hidden place to eat crepes and galettes
      Like the others here i highly recommend orsay.
      Apart from that, if you want to chill in nice places you can go a bit outside of paris to versaille's gardens, parc de sceaux (which has a lot less tourists but is still a great place) or l'hay les roses's rose garden (20 minutes by feet from the subway but the place is really pretty and it's free right now because it's a bit outside the blooming season)
      Enjoy!

        @AnarchoCatgirlism rue Saint Anne near the Pyramides (lines 7 and 14) station is full of japanese restaurants and shops.
        There's a really nice park along the avenue Daumesnil (recommending getting off at Montgallet station on line 8) that takes you a good hour or two.
        The Marais quarter (Saint Paul station, line 1) was the gay quarter, now way less, but there are still a couple of gay things.
        Shodai is a nice tea salon with lots of deserts, and they have a couple locations across Paris

          @AnarchoCatgirlism the métro stations are well labeled, you can't get lost inside of them. If your phone has NFC, download the Bonjour RATP app, on which you can buy tickets and use your phone as a pass, otherwise you have to pay for a Navigo Easy, which is just the support, on which you buy the tickets.
          Métro, (bus and tram), RER tickets are NOT the same.
          RER is lightish rail, and tickets are from a given station to another. Be careful, even if Orly is on line 14, you need a special ticket

            @AnarchoCatgirlism for the hotels, sticking to the good old chains (Ibis) is a very safe bet, you can get away for 80€ a night for a basic room inside of Paris.
            If your breakfast is usually sweet, go get some pastries in a boulangerie, it'll be better than the hotel's.

            For attractions, really depends on what you like, but the Eiffel tower is overrated (and crowded). Do go to the Jardin des Plantes though, near Gare d'Austerlitz (lines 5 and 10), it's lovely (and has a natural sciences museum)

              @AnarchoCatgirlism finally, even though there are a lot of public transportation in Paris, walking from place to place is really nice!
              And for paying, visa and mastercard are accepted pretty much everywhere, without a minimum amount, and there's no tipping or additionnal taxes: you pay what's displayed
              (except for hotels and such where there's a taxe de séjour, which you pay when you arrive, which is about 1€/night/person)

The woman has light skin and dark hair in a bob. Shes wearing a black dress with red, orange, and green polka dots. The dress has a matching bowtie that is very cute.

                                                                      3. "Unverified": Who cares whatever you "verify" or not. Software is software. When you try to run uncertified software on Windows or Mac it runs without a problem. Why should this be any different?

                                                                                                At least half of the time, none of the reasons is discoverability, but rather content warning.

                                                                                                No, no, hear me out.

                                                                                                I'm not on Mastodon. This may come as a surprise if you think the Fediverse equals Mastodon, but I'm not on Mastodon. I'm not on a Mastodon fork either. I'm on something that's called Hubzilla (https://en.wikipedia.org/Hubzilla, https://hubzilla.org, https://joinfediverse.wiki/Hubzilla, feature comparison tables with Mastodon: https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/item/0a75de76-eb27-4149-b708-f20b2f79d392). Hubzilla is not only not Mastodon, it's very, very, very much not Mastodon.

                                                                                                Hubzilla handles content warning differently from Mastodon. Mastodon does content warnings poster-side in a separate content warning field that's actually the summary field from StatusNet, repurposed as a content warning field by Mastodon in 2017.

                                                                                                Hubzilla does content warnings reader-side with a feature simply called "NSFW". Optionally. Individually for each reader. And fully automatically by means of a simple list of keywords that anyone can edit for themselves. By default, the list contains "nsfw" and "contentwarning". So if a post, a comment or a DM contains "nsfw" and/or "contentwarning", it is automatically hidden behind a content warning button.

                                                                                                In other words: If you don't want to see something immediately, activate the "NSFW" feature and add the keyword(s) of that uncomfortable thing to the NSFW keyword list. And Hubzilla will hide it for you, and only for you and not for everyone out there. (By the way: Mastodon itself has had this feature in its own filters since October, 2022. But nobody knows because Twitter has never had it, and Mastodon's entire culture is built on Mastodon 3.x as per spring 2022.)

                                                                                                However, in order for this to work, posts and comments have to include respective keywords. So I include them as hashtags because shoehorning keywords into the post text isn't always possible, and listing them at the bottom of the post as only keywords looks dumb.

                                                                                                A side-effect is that you can also use these keywords/hashtags to actually filter posts and comments out entirely.

                                                                                                And again, I post a whole lot of stuff that may make people feel uncomfortable. Hence, I have to hashtag it all.

                                                                                                Here are some examples for how I use hashtags:

                                                                                                • #Long, #LongPost
                                                                                                  These stand for "long post" as in anything over 500 characters, regardless if it's 75,000 characters or 550 characters.
                                                                                                  Why: Some Mastodon users are very uncomfortable about "long posts" with over 500 characters, either because they use Mastodon on their phones through the official app which can't fold long posts, or because they want the entire Fediverse to basically be Twitter with no more than 500 characters anywhere. They can use either or all of these tags to have whatever frontend they use hide or entirely remove my posts and comments with over 500 characters.
                                                                                                • #CWLong, #CWLongPost
                                                                                                  These stand for the content warning "CW: long post". They make clear that these hashtags are meant to serve as content warnings. Otherwise see above.
                                                                                                • #FediMeta, #FediverseMeta
                                                                                                  These stand for "Fediverse meta" as in someone talking about the Fediverse.
                                                                                                  Why: Some Mastodon users don't want to read tech talk. Ever. Especially not about nerdy FLOSS stuff like the Fediverse. It makes their heads hurt or something. Especially since, if I talk about the Fediverse, not only don't I only talk about Mastodon, but I usually don't talk about Mastodon at all, or if I do, I make it look bad in comparison with the rest of the Fediverse.
                                                                                                • #CWFediMeta, #CWFediverseMeta

                                                                                                • #Hashtag, #Hashtags
                                                                                                  These stand for the post or comment being about hashtags. In the context of this post, these two are two out of only six hashtags out of twelve to actually only serve to make the post more discoverable, namely for those who search for either hashtag and for those who follow either or both hashtags. I use both hashtags because I can't rely on everyone interested in hashtags following the same one out of these two. Some follow #Hashtag but not #Hashtags, some follow #Hashtags but not #Hashtag. If I want to cover both, and I do, I have to use both hashtags.
                                                                                                • #HashtagMeta

                                                                                                  Why: Some Mastodon users probably don't want to read my ramblings about hashtags since the differ so much from how hashtags are typically used on Mastodon.

                                                                                                • #CW, #CWs, #ContentWarning, #ContentWarnings
                                                                                                  In this context, they stand for the topic of content warnings in general because most people use one of these tags when they talk about content warnings. But since they're four different hashtags, and most people seem to only know one, I have to use all four. They are both for discoverability and hideability.
                                                                                                • #CWMeta, #ContentWarningMeta
                                                                                                  These explicitly stand for "content warning meta" as in "Jupiter is rambling stupid shit about content warnings again instead of simply doing as everyone does and putting them into the CW field". This time, I don't have dedicated "CW" versions in the sense of "CW: content warning meta" because they'd look weird.

                                                                                                I've also got hashtag combinations with and without "CW" for other topics like alt-text, image descriptions, blocklists, talking about long posts, mansplaining, reply guys etc. All kinds of stuff where what I have to say differs from what Mastodon users have to say to such degrees that people may want it CW'd or hidden.

                                                                                                  but -- in general it being something the reader has to explicitly block or disallow makes it completley suck as a content warning; usually wether i click through a content warning it depends on how im actively feeling in the moment, if i am up for this currenrly; and having to also compile a big list of my triggers is not trivial, but also raises serious safety and privacy concerns if the instance owner is (theretically) able to see all that information; if its stored on account settings, amoung many other things, it would mean constantly going back and forth with settings and stuff too ..

                                                                                                  it seems kinda clear to me this wasnt made by anyone who actually has like ptsd/did/etc ... who relies on content warnings as accessibility not just casually. tbh..

                                                                                                    @Li ~ Crystal System Granted, the Mastodon principle of poster-side content warnings in the repurposed summary field (which, by the way, still is the summary field on Friendica, Hubzilla, (streams), Forte and all long-form blogging server apps in the Fediverse and has been for much longer than Mastodon has been around) is more convenient for the single, individual end user. In theory, they get served all the content warnings they need right away on a silver platter without having to do anything themselves.

                                                                                                    In practice, however, not everything gets such a content warning. Especially when it comes from Friendica, Hubzilla, (streams), Forte or any long-form blogging server app in the Fediverse whose users often neither know that Mastodon has this content warning culture nor which of their various text fields corresponds to Mastodon's content warning field. Being able to automatically hide posts by keywords can actually be safer.

                                                                                                    Also, it isn't only you who gets the content warnings that you want. It's well over 10,000,000 Fediverse users who get that content warning forced upon them and shoved down their throats, whether they need it or not.

                                                                                                    Or would you like to get content warnings like "CW: long post (almost 5,000 characters), Fediverse meta, Fediverse-beyond-Mastodon meta, content warning meta, hashtag meta" all the time if you don't need to be warned about any of this?

                                                                                                    So, let's suppose you don't want to see me talk about alt-text, maybe not right away. Well, others may want to see me talk about alt-text, and they want to see it with no CW in the way. So they don't want me to shove a "CW: alt text meta" into their faces, and they don't want to click it to read my posts and comments about alt-text.

                                                                                                    • You create a new filter.
                                                                                                    • You add #⁠AltTextMeta and #⁠CWAltTextMeta as keywords. (Nobody please copy-paste these! I've had to add zero-width word joiners to make them appear like they do because Hubzilla parses what looks like hashtags even in in-line code.)
                                                                                                    • If you don't want to see that stuff at all, you leave everything as-is.
                                                                                                      If you don't want to see it right away, but maybe, you set the filter up to only hide the posts and not remove them.
                                                                                                    • I post something about alt-text.
                                                                                                    • I add #⁠AltTextMeta #⁠CWAltTextMeta to it. I always do, trust me.
                                                                                                    • Your filter catches it.
                                                                                                      If you don't want to see that stuff at all, you don't see it at all.
                                                                                                      If you don't want to see it right away, but maybe, it's neatly stashed away behind a button.
                                                                                                    • All those who do want to see that stuff don't create such a filter. And they see that stuff unhindered by any kinds of content warnings.

                                                                                                    The problem with Mastodon's way of content warnings is that everyone demands to get all the content warnings they need. All of them. But only these. The same people do not want stuff that doesn't disturb them to be hidden behind content warnings.

                                                                                                    But everyone's needs in terms of content warnings are different. Not everyone needs the same content warnings.

                                                                                                    If everyone in the Fediverse was to cater to everyone's needs in terms of content warnings all the same, there would hardly be a single post left without a content warning. I have compiled a list of over 100 content warnings which I could easily expand to several thousand because every nation and every state out there must have its own politics content warning.

                                                                                                    The list includes cars. People in the rural USA don't understand why because a personal automobile is absolutely necessary to survive in the first place. For people in big European cities, on the other hand, the automobile is a nuisance and a climate killer that should ideally be abolished and banned, world-wide, now! The mere mention of cars triggers them.

                                                                                                    The list includes cats. The many cat pictures in the Fediverse go on some people's nerves to such degrees that they demand all posts with cat pictures be hidden behind a content warning.

                                                                                                    The list includes police. Both radical anarchists and victims of police violence are triggered by the mere mention of police.

                                                                                                    The list includes long posts. I've already explained why. There is no consensus as to what defines a long post, but everything that exceeds 500 characters is a safe bet.

                                                                                                    The list includes threads, not as in Meta Threads a.k.a. "Twitter by Facebook", but as in one post spread across the post itself and a chain of comments. Some people even on Mastodon feel disturbed enough by this to demand a content warning.

                                                                                                    If you don't need to be warned about all of this, and you say that CWs for these topics (or at least some of them) are ridiculous, and they must not be CW'd because you personally don't need these CWs, you spit into the faces of these people.

                                                                                                    #Long #LongPost #CWLong #CWLongPost #FediMeta #FediverseMeta #CWFediMeta #CWFediverseMeta #CW #CWs #CWMeta #ContentWarning #ContentWarnings #ContentWarningMeta #Hashtag #Hashtags #HashtagMeta #CWHashtagMeta #Filter #Filters #MastodonFilter

                                                                                                      but no reason why you couldn't also explicitly opt-out of certain cw's instead of opting in; (which also seems safer; a list of things that don't hurt you sitting on a server somewhere seems better than one of things that do ...)

                                                                                                        but also on here, they serve also as a subject indicator to an extent too; what the post is like about generally; i have used the cw field to say 'pokemon' or 'minecraft', despite these not being triggering topics

Granted, they don't know that Friendica has been using that self-same field for summaries for seven years longer than Mastodon, and StatusNet has introduced it as a summary field nine years before Mastodon has made it a CW field.

                                                                                                        like ngl this like when someone get mad about 'gay stuff shoved down their throat' per-se, its like .. a non-issue.

                                                                                                        but no reason why you couldn't also explicitly opt-out of certain cw's instead of opting in; (which also seems safer; a list of things that don't hurt you sitting on a server somewhere seems better than one of things that do ...)

                                                                                                        This would first require a 100% complete, comprehensive list of all topics that have ever been CW'd in the Fediverse. Like, literally without even a single exception. So that they're all CW'd for absolutely everyone out there until they opt out.

                                                                                                        Like, I decide to CW text formatting from now on. Bam, 14,000,000+ Fediverse users on 30,000+ servers of 150+ server applications have it CW'd unless they opt out.

                                                                                                        I decide to CW bullet-point lists. Bam, 14,000,000+ Fediverse users on 30,000+ servers of 150+ server applications have it CW'd unless they opt out.

                                                                                                        I decide to CW my posts about virtual worlds because they might go on the nerves of someone who follows me for my "Fediverse isn't only Mastodon" content. Bam, 14,000,000+ Fediverse users on 30,000+ servers of 150+ server applications have it CW'd unless they opt out.

                                                                                                        You seriously that can realistically be done?

                                                                                                        but also if you have to manually include a #ContentWarning tag or whatever, your still relying on users actually adding that in; and they could not..?

                                                                                                        It's their decision whether or not they want to set up a filter for a certain hashtag. If the pressure is high enough, they won't sit and wait until things get comfy again. They'll act themselves and make things comfy again. By setting up a filter.

                                                                                                        I mean, if everyone went down the most convenient way, no matter how bad things are, you'd all still be on Twitter, wishing for things to be like 2012 again. Right?

                                                                                                        Sometimes waiting for people to coddle you and make everything nice and cosy around you does not lead to the desired outcome because it simply doesn't happen. Beg for it all you want. Sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands.

                                                                                                        But then again, here on Hubzilla, users are empowered to take matters into their own hands and even moderate their own stream themselves. Mastodon, on the other hand, has 10,000,000++ registered users who expected and often still expect to be mollycoddled all around and have all their wishes fulfilled. Regardless, by the way, of whether someone else may wish for the exact opposite. Then that someone is wrong, plain and simple.

                                                                                                          secondly filtering on certain phrases doesnt work well, different terms refer to the same thing, sometimes people dont use a given term for something as they feel doing so gives it legitimacy; ex "sideloading" is "installing a program"

                                                                                                            ...

                                                                                                                [the use of “triggered” to mean “mad” does not help here, because it plays into their hands and acts like some pretentious ass being inconvenienced is indistinguishable from e.g. a trauma victim having flashbacks (it’s not)]

                                                                                                                    It's still technically Fediverse meta discussion what I use that tag for. Even if only remotely so.

                                                                                                                    See, the thing is that 99% of all new Mastodon users thought that the Fediverse was only Mastodon after joining. And they loved the Fedierse for just that.

                                                                                                                    Half of them, when they learned the hard way that there's stuff in the Fediverse that sends content to Mastodon, but that's very much not Mastodon, shat brix in sheer terror. To this day, they wish for the Fediverse to be only Mastodon again (which, by the way, the Fediverse has never been).

                                                                                                                    Whenever they're reminded of the Fediverse not only being Mastodon, they're triggered. Genuinely triggered. But almost whenever I talk about the Fediverse, I talk about the Fediverse beyond Mastodon.

                                                                                                                    So the hashtags #FediMeta and #FediverseMeta help these people get rid of that content coming from me. And to be honest, I'm pretty sure that "that content" already starts when I only as little as name-drop Mastodon.

                                                                                                                    Also, there are people in the Fediverse who do not want to read tech talk. Probably especially not about the Fediverse. I've actually witnessed someone say that they wanted a CW for that kind of content.

                                                                                                                    Another reason to use these hashtags.

                                                                                                                    either way my thought is-

                                                                                                                    Can't do that. No dice. No can do.

                                                                                                                    Not if, for example, @Li ~ Crystal System expects me to fulfill all the wishes and desires of absolutely everyone all across the Fediverse. And a whole lot of other Mastodon users do so, too. And then there are those who say, "You don't have to perfectly fulfill everyone's wishes!" But I still have to perfectly fulfill their wishes. And if everyone says that...

                                                                                                                    I mean, I could cut down on filter-triggering hashtags. But someone somewhere out there may actually have a filter for one or multiple of my hashtags, and they may rely on me keeping on using these hashtags. Especially #LongPost, #CWLong and #CWLongPost which may have become a substitute for the official Mastodon app's missing long post folding feature for some users.

                                                                                                                    even if it gets normie mastodon twitter-hivemind users mad at you [theyre shit anyway tbh]

                                                                                                                    Unlike others in the Fediverse, I'm not too keen on being restricted to a small bubble of people who tolerate me. And believe me when I say that I've already lost enough reach by not behaving like a perfect Mastodon user (which would include things that are technically impossible here on Hubzilla, not to mention things that clash with Hubzilla's culture and things that require me to refrain from using about 90% of Hubzilla's features).

                                                                                                                    It's actually those normies that I'm speaking to half of the time. Most people who started following me did so because I was talking about how the Fediverse is not only Mastodon which isn't even the main topic of this channel.

                                                                                                                    I need a lot of reach to tell the people out there on Mastodon how much the Fediverse is not Mastodon.

                                                                                                                    I need a lot of reach to try to try to ask the general Fediverse public how to best describe images about an extremely obscure yet potentially curiosity-inducing topic like my main topic. And to vent my frustration about how hard it is to do as I suppose I'm expected to do.

                                                                                                                    And I need a lot of reach to talk about my main topic: certain 3-D virtual worlds. I want the people out there to see that there's more in terms of virtual worlds than Meta Horizon Worlds (a.k.a. "The Metaverse" a.k.a. "Facebook's Metaverse"; seriously, the place where I am has been casually using the term "metaverse" since at least 13 years before Zuck has first used it, and I've got proof) and crypto scams. I want to show people what virtual worlds can be like, and what they actually are like. (The latter would be easier if it wasn't so tedious to describe my in-world renderings.)

                                                                                                                    Tell you what: When you have a new Hubzilla channel, and you turn ActivityPub on, and your channel starts being able to federate with Mastodon, the Fediverse becomes a minefield. There are Hubzilla and (streams) channels that have ActivityPub intentionally off for this very reason, regardless of collateral damage.

                                                                                                                    using cws because “youre Supposed To use them” is bait and a completely incoherent concept, using cws because “someone might get actually hurt by seeing this, like trauma flashbacks kind of hurt, and i care about them and want to help them” is not.

                                                                                                                    I use them because "someone somewhere out there might genuinely be disturbed out of their mind if they have one post too many from me about this topic shoved into their face".

                                                                                                                    I use them because I want to give people an alternative to muting and blocking me altogether. And that's filtering out the content that makes them uncomfortable.

                                                                                                                    And yes, this happens. I know for a fact that at least one other Hubzilla user is filtering out all my content with at least one of my typical virtual worlds hashtags in it. We've got individual filters per contact here on Hubzilla, you know.

                                                                                                                        the solution isnt fighting and or hoping one destroys or another changes, and ideally its not non-interaction (i think if we compare to different cultures in real world we can see how obviously these are bad approaches) but rather; being mindful or respectful to our differences and trying to learn from eachother ig

                                                                                                                            And then you come again with your demands that clearly contradict the last three.

They all do CWs the same.

                                                                                                                            At best, they'll ignore you. Otherwise, they'll mansplain you.

                                                                                                                            You mean Gargron invented the CW field? And then, after the fact, Hubzilla came and hacked into a summary field?

                                                                                                                            You're so fucking wrong! What Mastodon does is the silly hack.

                                                                                                                            Now let me give you a history lesson:

                                                                                                                            2008
                                                                                                                            @Evan Prodromou launched Identi.ca.
                                                                                                                            It had the summary field as a summary field.
                                                                                                                            And he published the software as StatusNet which became the first software in what'd later be known as the Fediverse.
                                                                                                                            StatusNet no longer exists; it became GNU social.

                                                                                                                            2010
                                                                                                                            @Mike Macgirvin ?️ launched Mistpark, later Friendica.
                                                                                                                            It immediately connected to StatusNet and a whole lot of other things.
                                                                                                                            It has the summary field as a summary field (only that Friendica calls it "abstract").
                                                                                                                            Friendica still exists.

                                                                                                                            2012
                                                                                                                            @Mike Macgirvin ?️ launched Red, later the Red Matrix, as a fork of a fork of Friendica.
                                                                                                                            It immediately connects to StatusNet and Friendica and most of what Friendica connects to.
                                                                                                                            It has the summary field as a summary field.
                                                                                                                            The Red Matrix became Hubzilla in 2015.
                                                                                                                            Hubzilla still exists.

                                                                                                                            2016
                                                                                                                            Gargron (whom I'm so not going to tag) launched Mastodon.

                                                                                                                            • almost 8 years after StatusNet
                                                                                                                            • 5,5 years after Friendica
                                                                                                                            • almost 4 years after the Red Matrix
                                                                                                                            • 10 months after Hubzilla
                                                                                                                            It immediately connects to GNU social and Friendica and Hubzilla. Not the other way around.
                                                                                                                            It does not use the summary field because summaries don't make sense if you can't post more than 500 characters anyway.

                                                                                                                            2017
                                                                                                                            A Mastodon user submits a code change that takes StatusNet's summary field and uses it as a content warning field.

                                                                                                                            • ca. 9 years after StatusNet introduced the summary field as a summary field
                                                                                                                            • ca. 7 years after Friendica introduced the summary field as a summary field
                                                                                                                            • ca. 5 years after the Red Matrix introduced the summary field as a summary field
                                                                                                                            • ca. 2 years after Hubzilla introduced the summary field as a summary field
                                                                                                                            Mastodon repurposes the summary field as a content warning field. One-sidedly, without consulting all those that it connects to.

                                                                                                                            So, we were here first. And we had the summary field first, and we had it as a summary field.

                                                                                                                            It's Mastodon that's a "silly hack".

                                                                                                                            Mastodon has introduced Friendica's NSFW feature as part of its filters in October, 2022, when Mastodon 4.0 was rolled out. It could have done that right away in January, 2016, when Friendica has already had that feature for five and a half years.

                                                                                                                            Also, Friendica already had its own culture, perfectly geared towards Friendica's features, as early as 2010 when Gargron was still in school. So no-one, not even you, can come and force Friendica to throw away its 15-year-old culture that's perfectly geared towards its own features and replace it with Mastodon's culture as defined in 2022 that doesn't even work with Friendica's features.

                                                                                                                            Just because there's Mastodon now, the rest of the Fediverse does not have to turn into Mastodon, too.

                                                                                                                            Just because Mastodon makes up between 60 and 70% of the Fediverse, the rest does not have to turn into Mastodon, too.

                                                                                                                            Especially not what was there before Mastodon.

                                                                                                                            I always say that many Mastodon users act like the European settles in the New World who forced the natives to fully abandon their own "primitive" cultures and adopt the settlers' European culture and convert to Catholic Christianity or else.

                                                                                                                            Only that, unlike most Mastodon users, the European settlers did not think that they were here first, and that the natives arrived after them.

                                                                                                                            CC: @azalea 🌸

However, since I have been mentioned, I will reply.

                                                                                                                                If anyone has a problem with what Friendica does or how it behaves, I suggest creating an issue in our repository so that we can eventually find a solution.

                                                                                                                                Regarding 'eventually', however: Friendica is developed by a small team who are constantly eager to improve it, but resources are limited, so improvements can take time.

                                                                                                                                Regarding the summary field that Mastodon uses for "content warnings": It is possible to create posts in Friendica that contain this field. When a conversation contains information in this field, the reply will automatically contain the content of this field by default.

                                                                                                                                  ...

                                                                                                                                  primarily when considering them in context of people w PTSD or DID etc, who need them most; (having a comprehsive list of triggers is impracticle, and also raises safety & privacy concerns, both from instance admins and for ourselves; all of which i feel have been dismissed or minimized here..)

                                                                                                                                  none of this exactly screams good accepting place tbh, so sorry if im a bit skeptical of this. or if this isnt the norm idk

                                                                                                                                                • completely abandon their entire culture
                                                                                                                                                • adopt Mastodon's culture instead
                                                                                                                                                • abandon 90% of their features because these features have no place in Mastodon's culture

                                                                                                                                                Two: Everything that isn't close enough to Mastodon is Fediblocked in its entirety, all present and future servers.

                                                                                                                                                (The hilarity is that the only two server applications that are capable of blocking a whole Fediverse project by user agent are (streams) and Forte.)

                                                                                                                                                Three: Everything that isn't close enough to Mastodon is abandoned altogether. All servers are shut down, and the code repositories, often the work of 15 years, are deleted, including all forks and forks of forks, so that nobody can ever set up new ones.

                                                                                                                                                Four: Only Forte is shut down and deleted. Friendica makes DFRN its only base protocol again. And Friendica, Hubzilla and (streams) remove all traces of ActivityPub support so they can no longer connect to Mastodon.

                                                                                                                                                    i do not know all my triggers, but i can decide when to avoid something if its on a post, (which btw, i can't do if all the cws are at the very bottom where i have to have read the whole thing to see any of it)

                                                                                                                                                    in general, this way of handling it i feel comes from a large amount of priviledge;

                                                                                                                                                    That they are always constant across time (No; we are a system.)

                                                                                                                                                      An explanation first: Hubzilla is not like Mastodon in that threads consists of posts and more posts. It is more like a blog or like Facebook or Tumblr in that a conversation consists of exactly one post and otherwise comments. Unlike on Mastodon, comments work differently on Hubzilla, they have their own entry mask instead of using that for posts on Hubzilla, and they have different features from posts on Hubzilla.

                                                                                                                                                      On Hubzilla, a reply is not another post. It's a comment, you know, like a blog comment.

                                                                                                                                                      Have you ever seen a blog with a summary field for comments? No? I haven't either. Nobody has. It doesn't even make sense traditionally. And so, Hubzilla does not have a summary field for comments.

                                                                                                                                                      And so, in order to add a summary to a comment, the best I can do is use a pair of BBcode tags which should be known, but are not officially documented on Hubzilla: [summary][/summary].

                                                                                                                                                      Although I have a preview button here on Hubzilla, unlike Mastodon again, I can only preview what my comment will look like on Hubzilla. I cannot preview what it will look like on Mastodon. Hence, I do not know if these summary tags will actually do what they're supposed to do and hide this comment behind a summary and CW.

                                                                                                                                                      That aside, I will now list 142 things that may or may not trigger people or make them uncomfortable enough that they see a CW justified. I've had most of them on a list already, and I've just added those few that I always CW myself to be on the safe side.

                                                                                                                                                      If you want me to perfectly pamper and mollycoddle you and cater to all your needs 100%, I need to know what your triggers are so I can CW them and only them and nothing else so as to not annoy you with unnecessary CWs.

                                                                                                                                                      Scroll down for the list. Scroll at your own risk. (I hope that the blank lines will make it over to you.)

                                                                                                                                                      CC: @azalea 🌸

                                                                                                                                                      Here comes the obligatory hashtag block.

                                                                                                                                                      Again, and for those who are late to the party:

                                                                                                                                                      #⁠___Meta means that the topic itself does not appear in this comment, it's only mentioned/talked about. I still add the non-meta hashtags because I don't know what everyone out there filters or doesn't filter. Besides, some places outside of Mastodon let you filter #⁠___ AND NOT #⁠___Meta.

                                                                                                                                                      #⁠CW___ means that this hashtag stands in for a content warning, and it helps you filter content that contains and/or mentions/talks about this topic out.

                                                                                                                                                      #⁠CW___Meta only exists for stuff that I talk about frequently. It helps you filter content that only mentiones/talks about the topic.

                                                                                                                                                      I'm probably creating several hundred new hashtags now. But I have to.

                                                                                                                                                      #Long #LongPost #CWLong #CWLongPost #FediMeta

                                                                                                                                                        i agree if you take an all or nothing stance on this then theres no workable solutions, but is it really just is it too much to ask to add a standardized way to do this? cause my cws are not treated as a cw on hubzilla, and your cws arent treated as cws on masto-adj software,

                                                                                                                                                        is that not essentially, the root of both of the problem? because that doesnt seem unworkable to me

                                                                                                                                                          but anyone could have their filters in all sorts of ways so you have to put it many times to try fit as many as possible .. like you yourself are working around issues caused by doing it this way in this example

(Google+? Picasa? Google Talk? Google Reader? Google Hangouts?) Even Gmail and Google Maps only survive because they've become so ubiquitous that people think e-mail and online maps are Google products.

                                                                                                                                                                I don't know how old you are and when you came online first. But those of you who have been online for two decades or more remember (or should remember) Google doing that stuff again and again.

                                                                                                                                                                Here are a few examples:

                                                                                                                                                                In 2011, Google started Google+, a social network in direct competition against Facebook. For many, Google+ was the better Facebook.

                                                                                                                                                                Okay, it was an all-out rip-off of diaspora*, a free, open-source, decentralised social network that got $200,000+ in crowdfunding in summer 2011 because people expected a non-commercial "Facebook killer". But since the vast majority of people had never heard of diaspora* ever coming to life, nobody knew that Google's oh-so-revolutionary "invention" of "Circles" (like Mastodon lists) was actually diaspora*'s aspects, and even they weren't diaspora*'s invention. Also, Google's entire UI corporate identity with the black menu bar at the top was ripped off diaspora*'s UI.

                                                                                                                                                                Anyway, people loved Google+ to pieces. For some reason, they put more trust into the blatant data thief Google than into the blatant data thief Facebook.

                                                                                                                                                                In 2019, Google announced to shut Google+ down.

                                                                                                                                                                Or how about Picasa? An offline image viewer connected to an online image-sharing platform, launched in 2002.

                                                                                                                                                                In 2004, Picasa was bought out by Google. Still, it got more and more popular.

                                                                                                                                                                In 2016, Google announced to discontinue both the offline image viewer and the online image-sharing platform.

                                                                                                                                                                Want more? Okay. Google Reader.

                                                                                                                                                                Launched by Google in 2005. It got so successful that it basically killed of almost the entire RSS aggregator market because everyone and their dog only used Google Reader for that. For the vast majority of Internet users, Google Reader was literally the only possible way to subscribe to an RSS or Atom feed.

                                                                                                                                                                Regardless, Google announced to discontinue Google Reader in 2013.

                                                                                                                                                                Or how about Google Talk? The poster child of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish?

                                                                                                                                                                So Google started their own XMPP/Jabber server in 2005. It was actually federated, i.e. other XMPP servers could connect to it.

                                                                                                                                                                Of course, being a Google product, it had billions of advertisement budget behind itself. So it quickly became huge. In fact, Google Talk became almost synonymous for XMPP except for a few free software nerds.

                                                                                                                                                                Soon, Google Talk had more users than all other XMPP servers, including jabber.org, combined. By magnitudes. Also because the vast majority of Google Talk users knew nothing about XMPP and only enjoyed "MSN by Google" or "ICQ by Google".

                                                                                                                                                                Then (Extend) Google added new features that were incompatible with the rest of the XMPP network. If you wanted to use them, you had to be on Google Talk.

                                                                                                                                                                Then (Extinguish) Google closed the federation and locked the entire rest of the XMPP network out. Some say that Google killed off XMPP itself that way.

                                                                                                                                                                And then, in 2013, Google shut Google Talk down entirely.

                                                                                                                                                                When their next instant messaging system, Allo, was launched in 2016, it didn't nearly become as popular, partly because the instant messaging market was almost completely scooped up by WhatsApp, and what was left was firmly in the hands of Telegram, partly because people probably expected Google to pull the plug on it anyway. Which Google did in 2019.

                                                                                                                                                                Always the same life cycle:

Let's write a new licence that will be only in french and will preven foreign actors (except the big ones like google and apple) from accessing data due to a loophole and also OSM won't be able to use it because it's incompatible with ODbL.

                                                                                                                                                                      This should make it usable by OSM and prevent big tech from competing with us using our own data right?

                                                                                                                                                                                  Took some time to figure out that it’s not Mastodon and that while I can login with mastodon apps it functions wonky.
                                                                                                                                                                                  After using my JP App Store account, I was able to get a couple different misskey apps and I’ve enjoyed it since.

I appreciate it. (No, seriously, I really do. I wish more people talked about this stuff.)

I may still watch it since it's pretty good, but it would have to be later after its completion I guess. (I also kind of struggle to get into anime in general these days.) I also, embarrassingly enough, haven't quite finished the VN. (I'm at a part where I have to go back and figure out how to do something differently after completing one sort of not ideal ending, but I think I'm on the final "true" route so to speak.)

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  It's harder for me to get into anything these days if I'm being honest, so it's delegated to "when I can" I guess.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    What i have played however is the rythm game, and i must admit it was quite a disapointment. The game was a laggy mess that tried to keep the same gameplay and maps between mobile, pc and switch (some maps are unplayable on mobile, and some other are clearly not made for pc) whose story was not very well written...

It goes really fast at times, the characters act in weird ways, i ended up dropping but i'm still curious about the lore, maybe i should play the vn instead

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    And also i wonder how do they plan to include albemuth/asu in that lore, because they seem to have kind of tried that in the rythm game to some degree.

The actual VN is actually IMO really good story-wise. The rhythm parts of it are mostly well done. I mostly enjoyed them (and they had good songs. With KAF/RIM, Isekaijoucho, HARUSARUHI, and etc. No Vocaloids.)

Asu and Aru may have been the side characters in Isekaijoucho's story in the VN. My memory is a bit fuzzy though. When I get back to it I'm honestly probably going to have to reread the whole thing. (It has really been too long. My memory is really bad, lol.)

Most are essentially "boss battles" of sorts. One of the witches sings while you defend her until she completes the spell basically. Something like that.

Much more minimal.

It mostly tries to be a VN with only a bit of QTE/rhythm stuff thrown in for fun (and an excuse for the songs to be part of the game, rofl.)

You don't get every post from everyone in the network, only the posts (including boosts etc.) from people who your instance's users follow. For the same reason, your posts also won't show up on other people's instances unless some user there follows you. Being a smaller instance, there will be less users following and being followed so there will be less content on the feeds.
