I have an issue with ATM: the "media-viewer" element shows below the columns, meaning that I can't see/interact with media.
The same happens with the "meatball/falafel" menu on posts (to copy link, etc).

When I check the CSS, though, their z-index is supposed to be 9999999, so I'm not sure what's going on... anyone has had a similar problem? I'm using 116 but this has happened from time to time in older versions (though not that often)

Suggestions wanted:

The note taking app I'm using in android, has been unusable since Friday 4th August due to runaway duplication.

My question is this, is there a fediverse note taking equivalent?

I've heard that people outside of Mastodon (i.e. people who don't know much about Mastodon, or who don't use it) think it's more like . Anyone else have this view or opinion? .

Hey, Fediverse/Mastodon experts: Is there a way to take an existing post and make it a reply to another one, without having to just completely crate a new post?

I've noticed some people make their WritingWonders posts be a chain, and I think that might be useful for me, but I've got posts like this going back to December. If I redraft ~200 posts and they all get today's date, I'll flood my followers' timelines; I don't want to do that.

Any thoughts?

I'm European and I'm not good at finding people to follow from other continents.

Finding people from the USA is not a problem, but what are your tips for finding journalists, scientists, activists from countries outside of Europe and the USA?

I am wondering about a behavior: say I have three instances A, B, and C; A blocks C.

We have a person pA on A, pB on B that follows pA, and pC on C that follows pB.

What happens when pB boosts a post from pA? (When) can it reach pC?

I expect that, for it should not happen but I'd like to confirm this and to know whether it is also true for other platforms and what it depends on.

What Github alternative are people using now? I've used many others for work projects, but never for personal, but I'd like to migrate out of Github at some point.

Is there a , preferably browser-based, so that, when I view a thread of replies, I can easily see which people I am already following and follow those I am not, WITHOUT having to leave the thread to load every commenter's full profile?

Currently, I go down a thread, click on each username, check if I already follow them, and if so, go back to the thread and refind my place. It's slow. Or I can ctrl+click each name to open in new tabs, which gets me rate-limited.

In , is there a way to feature a playlist directly on your public profile page?

I did not find a way to do it, nor any feature request for it so I'm wondering whether I just missed something obvious...
To me, playlists are more useful than channels since you can also link videos from others.

Today I learn about (retribute.me) that comes from the folks at @funkwhale if I understood correctly.

The idea looks quite nice, with the objective of making a standard for financial support. I was wondering how this relates to other initiatives like the on payment links (socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/) or tools like GNU .

Are there best practices to list contributors to an open-source project?

Like a basic CONTRIBUTORS file?
And (how) do you differentiate between authors and contributors, especially for copyright notices in the file headers, do you use a "copyright: {package_name} authors/contributors" that refers to that author/contributor list?

How does this interact with tools like a Developer Certificate of Origin?

A kinda serious question for the / and people out here.

Does the slogan:
"El resto paga !" exist in the US, in latin-american advertisement or even englisch translation over there like:
"The rest pays !"

If so, do they still use that "yes master, what ever you wish master!" allegory and even branding?

No colored shitstorm till now at all?

Is there an app that lets you schedule posts in Mastodon? I’ve just been using the Mastodon app or web UI.

For several reasons I'd like to start preparing my transition away from Signal, not necessarily abandoning it entirely (most of my family is on it, now), but at least starting to move my own usage to a or .

I see two main possibilities:
- host my own bridge
- use

Would anyone recommend any of the two (or another possibility)?
I'd also be interested in any review/feedback on in general.
