@Edent what's so bad about <div> ... or: Why do you want to avoid them?

[aslakr@mastodon.social]

@jannem @mike @Edent I think that the message «Post unabailable» from Mastodon is a bit confusing when the post actually is muted.

Maybe it might look a litt better when Mastodon 4.5 is released but I haven't tested this on mastodon.social.

@jannem @mike @Edent Ideally long wordpress posts should have been in the format Article instead Note etc., but it seems handling of that kind of post is a bit buggy in Mastodon for the moment.

@aslakr @mike @Edent
Yes, the permissions error threw me off. Ideally it should take the reason into account and say something like "You have muted/blocked/filtered this user/topic."

But I'm sure that will come over time. Same with putting long posts under a fold in the app (the web already does).

@Edent since your blog is federated.. I guess that IS expected behaviour

[noneeeed@hachyderm.io]

@Edent I keep seeing "This post is pending approval from the original author." any time you embed a post. Is that an issue with my Mastodon host or something you need to enable? I know this is a new feature.

[edent@mastodon.social]

@Noneeeed I can see it on Hackyderm - but it can take a few moments to come through.

[noneeeed@hachyderm.io]

@Edent Aha! Reloading the page worked.

[tattooed_mummy@beige.party]

@Edent or does it?

[edent@mastodon.social]

@Tattooed_Mummy
I love your font!

I think it will depend which server, website, and app you have.

[tattooed_mummy@beige.party]

@Edent i think most people hate my font and think i'm a weirdo, but thank you

[briansmith950@mas.to]

@Edent
is the awaiting approval thing expected?

[edent@mastodon.social]

@BrianSmith950 yes. You either need to refresh, or upgrade the instance.

[briansmith950@mas.to]

@Edent
Good job a refresh sorted it as I don't own this instance.

[hipska@mastodon-belgium.be]

@Edent yup, mine did 3.22

[eivindmork@snabelen.no]

@Edent I sometimes read the LLMs answer ironically when I ask basic questions: "That's a GREAT question!" as it really isn't, so I am not sure 😂

[edent@mastodon.social]

@eivindmork Yes, the obsequious nature is a part of the US culture which I'll never get used to.

[waf@dataare.cool]

@Edent Reminds me of what @arya wrote on Framework/DDH that you shared, specifically the Hyprland bit.

That change is hard, but change in rep is harder. Stack isn’t horrible in the protected characteristics sense, but can be horrible in the fresh meat sense. Even if Stack were to change, I don’t think I would go there were I 20 years younger and not battle hardened on BBS, Usenet, and general age/cynicism.

[dan@mastodon.durrans.com]

@losttourist @Edent LLMs can also point you in a direction. It may not be the right direction but at least it's a direction... if you don't know the question you need to ask then they can help you form that question.
