I'm an autistic enby and I have issues. They/them pronouns. Chronic optimizer. Sensory-seeker.
I can't keep up with ppl's pronouns. I will call you "they" often, even if I do also use your pronouns occasionally.
I should probably just unfollow everyone then I won't see garbage replies popping up out of nowhere.
I hate how mastodon puts *random* replies on my home feed.
I didn't ask for them, they should't be on my feed, and there's no way to block them.
Twitter had the same issue. Not sure if they ever fixed it. But I want it fixed for mastodon because it's extremely annoying.
@grainloom @sl2c you're not sane but that's ok <3
kink hot take Afficher plus
@Jo As I said. Toxic.
I know what I'm talking about 99% of the time. When I don't I clearly specify that I don't, sometimes multiple times a message. And of course I'll link a relevant issue every time it becomes relevant/I suffer from it, because *it is an issue and it's causing me distress*.
I can't comment on creeping ppl out because that's not my intention and so I honestly can't tell (unless ppl tell me), but at least I can understand human emotions and why humans do the thing.
Cock ends Afficher plus
I need to cut off toxic ppl from my life.
I'd like to tell ppl they're toxic so they can work on it.
*conflicted*
hey imagine a federated wiki where each section on a page can be on a different instance, so you can have much more complex, in-depth articles about stuff where there's this one instance which gives you an overview of a device, this other instance that gives you reverse engineering data, this other instance gives you a complete technical breakdown of the device down to the component level.
guess I'm anti-wikipedia.
@SoniEx2 One instance dedicated to how each part of each device tastes
Another dedicated to trying to describe the platonic essence of each device, through its imperfect translation into the material world by human hands
@UberGeek I shouldn't need to switch instances to see that content, and I shouldn't have to *rely* on the admins to allow links to that content.
@UberGeek but I don't want just linking, I want literally including the contents of the other wiki and displaying them on your wiki and so on and stuff!
@UberGeek and does it actually provide "sections" from separate instances?
# Page Title
<main section from current instance, or instance providing page>
## Section 1
<some other instance can provide this section>
## Section 2
<yet ANOTHER instance gets to provide this section>
etc.
For example, a hypothetical article about the Sega Genesis, using sections from different instances.
# Sega Genesis
The Sega Genesis was a Sega console.
# Technical Details
M68k, Z80, etc
# Reverse Engineering (from segaretro)
The Sega Genesis has these header fields here and there and the VDP needs to be initialized with a vector table and [etc].
@UberGeek uh yeah no that's not a thing according to my search engine.
@devurandom (I'm not entirely sure how cross-instance contributions can be handled (yet), so that's something to figure out)
@devurandom oh you just require accounts and instance and section blocking is a thing.
@SoniEx2 yes. and the administrators of each instance would be like...a separate team of specialists.
wikipedia is a "general purpose" wiki so they can't afford to do this. but federated could.
