To repeat: There is a "user style" which removes the stripey poles from CWs in Mastodon 4.3, which you can install by for example installing the Stylus browser extension and going to this page:

userstyles.world/style/18496/m

With this "user style", CWs look like this:

I made a little web tool to present/search the “find-your-friends.json” file from your #cohost data export in a nicer view friends-of-eggbug.vercel.app/

Everything is stored locally and it remembers your file so you can use the page as a quick way to access your list for later.

trans, genitals, Boost please <3 

I think it's what it means that's the issue.

When a cis man's clothes indicate he has a penis, it means nothing.

When mine, a trans woman's, do - it's automatically angry, sexual, a Statement. Political. It needs to be some of those things. I have some say in how I sell it, but those are my options at the best of times. Deviant or defiant.

Yes, even to cis people who are allies and know I'm a woman. They may accept my reasons for having a dick, but I need reasons. And often Reasons. Even if they'll react with "you go, girl", I need to put out a message for them to react to. Be it meek or brave.

Cis men don't.

I don't mind being the Angry Trans. But I hate that I have to be some kind of consciously chosen kind of trans.

Making this one public so it's Boostable. Hope it reaches some sympathetic cises and makes them think. About something I have to have a take on. I need to be a historian, political scientist, biologist, activist, diplomat and PR rep to comfortably exist. Y'all don't.

If you're trans, it's already likely you'll Boost this (thanks!). If you're cis and fancy yourself an ally, I dare you to.

I'm planning to set up a bit of a workshop area in my new apartment and I think I'll eat the import costs to get some of their build mats for it, not only because I wanna support them but also because they look very nice and well thought-out

Really appreciate @luna’s retrospective on the Pictionary bot, and what was unique about cohost that made it such a perfect host for it: moonbase.lgbt/blog/nes-piction

it's kinda funny that a ton of stores will just sell you a bottle of pressurized co2 for home use just because someone figured out you can totally carbonate water at home

So with Cohost shutting down in about 24 hours, a note to every remaining social media site: You should totally rip off the "Following" pane.

Cohost had a view where (as alternative to the normal linear feed), it showed everyone you follow, sorted by last post, and you could click to see recent posts. A problem with social media is the more you post, the more space you take up. Cohost "Following" made everyone take up the same amount of space, while still prioritizing recency. A nice compromise
