#ZeroesCA

Anyone else on zeroes.ca using Fedilab and can test something for me?

Tip: If you’re using #ZeroesCa on iPhone or iPad, it seems that the (currently unmaintained) free, open source client MetaText is the way to go. Way more slick and fast than other clients I’ve tried, and it allows the full 5,000 characters @zeroes affords us. If you think another client is as good or better, I’m curious of course.

@Mastodon I want to post 5000 characters in the iOS app, but it’s limited to 500 characters and I have to go to the web interface (or another app) to be able to post longer. How do I make this work for my account on #ZeroesCa? I have tried removing and reinstalling the app, signing in again etc. I can’t find a setting for it. cc: @zeroes

Hello, hello, hello, and… hello! New account here on #ZeroesCA, so it's time for an #introduction!

We're Victoria (aka "The Croissants"), a transfeminine plural system in 🇨🇦️. Besides retro gaming, TV, and being gay, our interests also include avoiding the plague, and sometimes writing either prose or code.

We prefix most of our posts with an emoji (🔥️🌟️🌺️💧️) to note which member of our system wrote them. Don't know what a "plural system" is? Don't be afraid to ask.

Looking forward to being on an instance that will welcome posts about the plague!

If you're on #ZeroesCA and would like to provide feedback on the recommendation regarding federation with threads.net, please do so here: https://zeroes.ca/@zeroes/110686134819371953

UI tweak #2: increased character limit

#MaxTootLength #WeDontNeedNoSteenkinThreads #DoubleEntendre #ZeroesCA

In addition to all sorts of back-end admin improvements, the migration today will allow us to add a bunch of tweaks to the main UI. The first of these is a new 'site theme' in three palettes: Elephant, Elephant High Contrast, and Elephant Light

For folks new to Mastodon, it may ease the transition

Thanks @rolle for coming up with a sleek design and writing the CSS and @stux for shoehorning it into the menus

Waiting ‘patiently’ while @zeroes is ‘migrating’. 😅🙏🏻

Hey #Zeroesca members...

Pledge Break!

After discussion with @trendless I switched from a $5/mo on ko-fi to a $65/year subscription via liberapay.com

This way @trendless gets $60 free and clear after Stripe processing fees

If enough active on zeroes.ca contribute $60/year we will have funding to upgrade to running our own server infrastructure w, a better version of Mastodon.

I would encourage ko-fi users to change to a yearly liberapay subscription!

Less Fees! More #Zeroesca !

Hey, #zeroesca its Pledge Break Time!

It costs money to run this server. Its not twitter. No ads!

Take a minute & sign up for a couple of bucks a month.

If all 353 active users signed up for $1/mo it would be more than paid for.

Thanks to @trendless for taking on the cost of adding hashtag relays for COVID related hashtags.

I have completely changed this account from following accounts to following hashtags as a result. Its made a world of difference in the relevance of my timeline.
