re: biological family-, transphobia, sui
@eri what a mess. i'm so sorry you've had to go through this.
@sydneyfalk ouch
So late Wednesday night USA time* the mastodon dot social admin dropped a very different web interface based on the contractor-designed iOS app. In my opinion it looks okay in single-column mode but REAL bad in "advanced" mode.
FYI @Eramdam made a style for the Stylus browser extension that claws back the previous design to some extent:

* in other words, the night before the Twitter exodus began, which was either genius or terrible timing to drop a large design change
re: -, trans, aging, traumatic dreams
@tessaracht that mood is massive.
@cadey cool
@unpretty everything is broken
@cadey can nixos mitigate that?
re: -, trans, aging, traumatic dreams
@tessaracht you're still here, which is pretty rad
@noracodes their internal apis may not be terribly stable
@noracodes that's totally fair.
@noracodes fwiw i don't see this as a zero sum game. activitypub isn't going away, and cohost will have growing pains.
how they represent themselves probably isn't a lie for them. that is to say i won't assume bad faith on their part until i feel it's warranted
federation is socially complex, and i can understand an implementer feeling like it's an anti-feature
also, i've seen a lot of people burn themselves out here. if cohost works, they'll be lessons for everyone on the way forward.
