@geomant as we experience terminal stage capitalism, I don't think this sounds as bad as you might think it sounds. :blobcatcoffee:
@rysiek Socialism as a service.
@rysiek Yeah people keep forgetting or just plain fail to educate themselves. It's why we are stuck in this misery roundabout generation after generation.
@rysiek This is why I use an app (Mona app) on an instance (infosec.exchange) that runs the glitch-soc fork of Mastodon and has a reasonable length limit, so I can post everything all at once in a single post.
@bhawthorne so, I actually enjoy threading. It promotes brevity and succinctness. It allows people to reply to specific bits of the thread. When I want to write a longer-form thing, I have my blog.
But the rate limiting during threading? Come on.
@oblomov nope. Single session.
@rysiek do you have multiple open sessions? I've seen it happen more frequently when connected to the same account from multiple browser windows and/or clients
@rysiek Even before I switched to infosec.exchange, I don’t think I ever hit a rate limit when posting, so it sounds like something about your instance needs some tuning! I do like threaded conversations, but I rarely read posts that are split into multiple pieces. I gave up keeping a separate blog when I realized that I do most of my best writing when I’m not thinking about polishing it for perfection.
@bhawthorne hah, yeah, polishing and perfection bit rings very true, I need to stop worrying about it so much and just blog more!
And maybe set up my own instance so that I can control stuff like rate limits.
@rysiek mastodon's rate limiting is the dumbest implementation of such that I've ever encountered. it's atrocious
@sun it's a massive impediment to us tumblr draftposter transplants, I actually have never run into the issue @rysiek mentions
the one guy upthread is correct tho, every open tab counts against the rate limit
@sun @rysiek I am begging you (or anybody) to make a less shitty frontend than all the ones we have
this prompts me, today might be a good day to *finally* make use of that document you created and set up the surfhosted instance so I can finally get this account off Mastodon
@sun good to know you'll be updating it because I saved a pdf print of the original in case it disappeared
I've become a digital pack rat after having far too many online things disappear
