The bird site and an IRC network
Yup, bird land is still reminding me of freenode. Tweets can't mention or link to alternate social networks anymore just like chatters on freenode couldn't mention parallel irc networks such as libera libera. Both were bought by Big Egos (tm) who quickly destroyed them.
It's just occurred to me that what is happening these days is people are flippin' the bird to the bird
#Fedihelp #fedihelp #Help #help #fediverse I've read that to follow a hashtag, one clicks the tag, on the tag's page, one clicks the icon of a person with a '+' sign. That icon is greyed out on every tag i've tried. Mouseovers show the alt text "Follow hashtag" but, the icon is inactive. Can anyone tell me the proper way to follow a tag?
@jfballenger This is the first time in my life I've been able to see my self as part of a visible minority. The grey hair and wrinkles give me away... 🤨
