Why are there "bun-length" hot dogs that cost extra, but not "hot dog length" buns that cost less?

It looks like I can do *everything* from Mastodon's clutter-free web UI, and I'm finding a plethora of mobile clients that (while not perfect) are able to do everything I need. I presume that's because Mastodon's API is so open, and it wasn't built to be hostile to developers like Twitter seems to be more and more.

It took Mastodon having such an open UI for me to realize how hard it was to do anything on Twitter. Mobile apps seem to be all crashy and terrible, it's just a matter of finding the least worst for my own use cases. The best I have right now lets me check and post from multiple accounts, plus cross-account rt and like. But it crashes often, I can't see likes, and of course can't see polls.

It's weird in that I've just noticed that in all my interactions with Twitter, access to it has been *hostile*. It's like there's a security team around the perimeter, and all the times I've managed to get in I feel like I've been super sneaky, and a guard change cuts off one path, so I have to route around for another.

I want to spin up my own instance, mainly for vanity reasons, but I don't know anything about the underlying tech. I followed a guide to start one successfully, but I'd have to be a major bother of other people to keep ahead of technical issues, not to mention administration.

tfw you introduce one friend to another and they hit it off and start conversation about a mutual interest they have but you don't so you quietly slip away but ur not jealous because friends are having fun and that's awesome

I realized I've not actually mentioned my #gamedev #gameing project, Krasten, on here before today. So here goes:

It's a text-based, open-world RPG based on the idea of building a 'single-player MUD' based in a gritty cyberpunk world. I've been working on it for over a year now, on and off. :3

I like that D&D races include furries, featheries, scalies, elementals, demons, m'f'ing dragons, and of course humans.

there is nothing more adorable than that thing where a cat reaches up and taps you gently on the thigh to get your attention while you're sitting at a computer

and no greater betrayal than when that gentle tap unexpectedly involves claws
