JFC...
I have four tabs open, Firefox web browser on Ubuntu, to my home instance
/home
/public/local
my Lists
and my Profile home
I'm on my /home tab viewing posts
I am looking for and using the Translate tag at the lower left of a given post
Do you need a screenshot to understand what I'm saying?
Or do you think I don't know what I'm talking about?
"Or do you think I don't know what I'm talking about?"
Absolutely not! I am the one who doesn't understand, I am trying to get a better picture of what is going on by asking for details 🙂
I'm trying to help.

Is your Mastodon timeline too empty or too full? Are you seeing stuff you don't want to, and missing stuff you do want to see? Is your timeline overwhelmed by someone who shares too many posts?
These and lots more timeline problems are solved in the "How to customise your Mastodon timeline" guide:
p.s. Good grief. I'm trying to help people use this place and just got accused of "disinformation" and "causing harm" because they didn't like the way I used the word algorithm in the guide.
Can we please chill out and be a bit more friendly? The Fedi relies on volunteers helping each other and making suggestions in a constructive way.
If I've done something wrong it is brilliant if you point it out, most of the guides rely on people correcting me. But there is no need for personal attacks.

@FediTips there is no pleasing those both humorless and in terminal thrall of Dunning Kruger. Just block, move on.

@FediTips that sounds exactly like mastodon

@FediTips asks "Can we please chill out and be a bit more friendly?"
I highly recommend that.
Always.
But also particularly when somebody is trying to help without compensation, just for the sake of the community.

@FediTips Ugh, some people just need to chill. I think you're doing fine.

@FediTips Perhaps a positive reinforcement will outweigh the negative one you just got
Thank you for what you do.

@FediTips I just glanced through the article to see how you were using the word. You even explained how you were using it and why while acknowledging that other meanings exist. I would give that an A+ for communication. I'm sorry someone decided to be mean to you. I hope one day they learn to chill out and help people instead.

@FediTips chill buddy please. Just don´t let it get to you.
I´m critizising a lot about this platform but never personal. There is potential lost here, that´s true imho.
Don´t let that get on a personal level, please -

@FediTips this thread is providing good blocklist fodder. Lotta pendants showing their arses today.

@FediTips Accusing someone of causing harm for using the non-technical definition of algorithm is kind of darkly funny in a way.
Like it's clear that they understand that words can have expanded and non-literal definitions, but seemingly only for words they want to use to make a fiddly argument about terminology sounds more dire.
Tbh, between the word "algorithm" and the word "harm", it is probably more important to insist on an accurate definition of the word "harm".

Just want to say that I really appreciate the work you're doing and your guides are great and really helped me to navigate mastodon a bit more confidently . thank you ❤️

It is by the dictionary definition, it isn't by common usage. What the dictionary says on technical matters often diverges from common usage.
Maybe the clearest example is "computer": Most people use that word to mean a laptop or desktop PC/Mac and not a smartphone. But going by the dictionary definition of "computer", the smartphone ought to be called a computer too.
I'm trying to use common usage as I'm mainly aiming my guides at new and non-technical people.

Thank you for what you do.
Oh wow! 😲
Thank you so much! You didn't have to but it is very greatly appreciated! 🙏
That's very kind and generous of you, it helps a lot with keeping the accounts and sites going!

@FediTips your work is very much appreciated. Sorry you are being harassed. I frankly think that Mastodon is potentially one of the key means to avoid social media armageddon.

@G3rt Capisco il quadro che descrivi, ma secondo me c’è un punto che spesso sfugge: se davvero da trent’anni si restringono gli spazi democratici, allora il problema non è solo “chi governa”, ma un’intera cultura politica che ha smesso di pretendere trasparenza, competenza e responsabilità.
La retorica della “stabilità” funziona proprio perché una parte consistente della popolazione è stata educata a considerare la partecipazione come un fastidio, non come un diritto.

Lo avevo pubblicato tempo fa. Lo ripubblico, perché credo sia una delle conferenze più chiare e schiette del prof. Canfora che dice molto di ciò che stiamo vivendo e che ancora ci aspetta.

@antonuzzo1 ... fa parte di un processo di limitazione progressiva degli spazi di democrazia che dura da più di trent'anni, non so se hai presente cosa sono riusciti a fare già con la legge sulla sicurezza.
Per governare e consegnare il Paese ai giochi commerciali gli serve stabilità, cioè gente rassegnata che nemmeno ci prova a contestare. Che continuino. A furia di reprimere si stanno costruendo la frusta per le loro chiappe.

@antonuzzo1 già nel 2020, l’allora deputata di FI Giusi Bartolozzi presentò alla Camera dei Deputati una proposta di legge costituzionale finalizzata ad attribuire al Governo il potere di stabilire le priorità investigative nell’esercizio dell’azione penale.
La Bartolozzi nella proposta affermava:
«La definizione delle priorità dell’esercizio dell’azione penale è un supremo compito che spetta alla politica»
La riforma mira di nuovo a consentire al governo di stabilire su cosa e su chi indagare.

@G3rt Le indagini sono regolate dalla legge e affidate alla magistratura, non al governo né a un risultato referendario. La Costituzione (artt. 101–112) stabilisce che l’azione penale è obbligatoria, i magistrati sono indipendenti e nessun organo politico può stabilire chi o cosa debba essere indagato. Un referendum può incidere su norme astratte, non sulle indagini in corso né sulle scelte dei singoli magistrati.”
