@ilikebrains Hatte auf Amazon geschaut und dann einen mit Inliner-Rรคdern genommen. Und irgendwie hatte ich mir eingebildet, eine etwas hรถhere Maximalhรถhe als รผblich zu brauchen (war Quatsch ๐Ÿ˜…).

Konkret der hier, aber da war der noch locker 100 โ‚ฌ gรผnstiger. amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B089W8R6KZ

@ilikebrains Ich hab schon lรคnger einen Rollhocker in der Kรผche. Anders kรถnnte ich mich in richtig schlechten Phasen nicht mal selbst versorgen. Und in guten spart's Energie fรผr anderen Kram.

@harrybo That's entirely not what I was saying. ๐Ÿ˜…

My point was that social networks/media โ€“ as a whole โ€“ have become places that revolve mostly about outrage and drama. Even though tamer in my opinion, the Fediverse is no exception to that.

So my guess was that many good people realised that they've been using these platforms mainly for doomscrolling. Or maybe just that the time they spent made them feel worse afterwards.

And I doubt that people who've been interacting here for a while and then disappeared were suddenly driven away by the request to add an alt-text. ๐Ÿ˜„

@amelia Only means that you've been growing over a decade. That's a good thing. Embrace the cringe! ๐Ÿ˜„

@lowlevel Yeah, that looks better. Very logical URL, too. Bonus points for the stereotypical content. ๐Ÿ˜„

Looks like the search didn't index it for some reason. Thanks for pointing it out!

@_elena Are you just looking for a historic screenshot or also for the post itself?

In case of the latter (or for anyone interested):

First post seems to be this one: mastodon.social/@Gargron/1854

At least it's the earliest that appears via search: mastodon.social/search?q=from%

@dbat Maybe this illustration helps. :)

Tabs setup in Tusky. A tab is set to "Hashtags" with the tags Monsterdon, TowelDay and SilentSunday.View of the resulting tab in Tusky. Visible are toots about Monsterdon and SilentSunday.

@dbat Nope, hence the suggestion to use hashtag searches in a (single) tab. Would basically be a list of "followed" hashtags then, but not combined with certain users.

(You can, of course, follow hashtags on your home TL, but based on the context, I reckon that you want them separately for good reasons.)

@dbat You could set up hashtag searches in a separate tab. :) Both in Tusky and web UI.

@daniel Ich hab mir das schon zu Herzen genommen und gerade die Zeit zwischen 14 und 20 so gut es ging genossen. :) Tatsรคchlich hatte ich damals auch so eine Epiphanie, dass man zwischen 16 und 18 wahrscheinlich das beste Verhรคltnis von Rechten zu Pflichten hat.

Stimmte (fรผr mich) zwar, hat aber auch nicht verhindert, dass diese Zeit schlieรŸlich vorbeiging. ๐Ÿ˜„

@matt Sadly, I can relate and I've been having similar feelings for a while now. See, for example, mstdn.games/@Sven/113599408199

My best guess would be that, over the years, we've driven away many good people from social networks entirely. Although the Fedi is different in many ways, even here most trending posts are fueled by the typical day-to-day drama and outrage.

@britt Back in the days when I got my driver's license, I utterly confused my driving instructor by challenging some of the multiple-choice questions: "But couldn't it be meant this way, too?"

In the end he was like: "๐Ÿคจ Huh, you're right, many of them are ambiguous. You really can't think about any of them for too long. ๐Ÿ˜…"

In the end, I passed the exam with the maximum of errors allowed because I'm bad at not thinking about things. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

@globalc Without knowing the details here: If the harvest was bad elsewhere in the world, wholesalers might choose to export rice rather than selling it locally, thereby decreasing local supply.

Everything is connected. :)

Nature is busy around here this year. Two temporarily abandoned flower pots have been separately occupied by two solitary bees.

Given the state of the economy, I can totally respect that. Full solidarity, sisters! โœŠ

@chpietsch @globalc Yep, if I remember correctly, there's a passage like "have you been to the UK between <year X and Y in the late nineties>?" in the questionnaire before donating.
