nostr:npub1cmgqvz7xr07euwkum3mjghjqcu4d3k2fcyf6g4uwwe5ggnd6fetq0wrzd2 wondering if it’s possible to have the instance name beside the mastodon logo on the desktop and mobile web.

Something like this.

nostr:npub1qc5rm9490am5znghhm6vzsfxvaurqmj8k3qhzq4wcnz97u6ajqtqrd2t0h Not natively, there is no title attribute that shows the instance name in that element. You can add your custom logo via CSS if you want.

nostr:npub1cmgqvz7xr07euwkum3mjghjqcu4d3k2fcyf6g4uwwe5ggnd6fetq0wrzd2 Yesss thank you so much. I love seeing the outline of the text box.

nostr:npub1hdaqj28z72ahw6j330s68knac7dr57q5v9hahcjek48qc6yyj8ds2v27vm Felt kinda right moment for it. Had to tone it down a bit for it to be okay. Didn't like it to stick to the eye too much. Just enough so that you know it's there.

nostr:npub1cmgqvz7xr07euwkum3mjghjqcu4d3k2fcyf6g4uwwe5ggnd6fetq0wrzd2 That looks absolutely amazing! Do you know if there is a way to use this theme without having the entire instance to use it? The reason why I'm asking this is because my instance unfortunately doesn't provide this theme.

nostr:npub1a3xqk5e007c2ftvr3vkc28tr7rjqmqst0h9dht7mnd68vy7uxzxsl9d4r8 Weird. For me it still crashes after indexing the first instances.

The same damned error.

nostr:npub1t02uhzma6dqvfnlj4a2mf6ffqc7epwuy044eshp9n4rxvwg6zktqpfqas6 Wow, for me it's not that bad. It's from 2 to 5 times per month (for some reason lately more than usually) and they last from hours to half a day, never days in a row.

I have re-read the magnificent article by nostr:npub1qmcpm5qnud8p4az4enwx0arcnw38jxyq70yzphj5xdn9va6q8s4qryv6gx, titled "Mastodon is easy and fun except when it isn’t". On Bluesky, she asked those people who had tried/used Mastodon and bounced off, what had led them to slow down or leave.

tl;dr; reasons why they left Mastodon:

- Got yelled at, felt bad

- Couldn’t find people or interests, people didn’t stay

- Too confusing, too much work, too intimidating

- Too serious, too boring, anti-fun

- Complicated high-stakes decisions

"I don’t know if Mastodon can grapple with the complexities of mass scale. Lots of people would prefer it didn’t—staying smaller and lower-profile makes it friendly to amateur experimentation and also a lot safer for people who need to evade various kinds of persecution. But if Mastodon and other fedi projects do take on the mass scale, their developers must consider the needs of people who aren’t already converts. That starts by asking a lot of questions and then listening closely and receptively to the answers you receive."

For many parts I agree. But despite everything, Mastodon/Fediverse is still the best place to be on social media. Let's make this even better. We have the power. #Mastodon #OpenSource #Fediverse #Bluesky #BlueskySocial

I'm so sorry.

I've had two very difficult days. I think the heat is making my anxiety worse.

nostr:npub1p8saydhfl0p78w3g7x2urgrhrh4htk8pkaghrrcm5ckj055zm7dq064tga HEAT, yes. That is one reason. Somehow it feels so oppressive.

nostr:npub1cmgqvz7xr07euwkum3mjghjqcu4d3k2fcyf6g4uwwe5ggnd6fetq0wrzd2 Anxiety sucks, but I’m happy that you are aware that it will pass, even if you don’t know the cause. I find that helps greatly. Crank the tunes, it’s Friday.

Why did I stay up late again?
