@aral
While you wait for the trackpad issue to be resolved, am I right to assume you can mitigate the problem by adjusting trackpad sensitivity?

One day I’ll probably find an appropriate context in which to post this. Meanwhile I think it’s enough of a universally recognized phenomenon to post out of the blue.

@aral Thank you. I’m always looking out for something that will make routine tasks simpler. Although I’ve been watching your posts about #Kitten for some time, other distractions have stood in my way so I had only a vague feeling that Kitten could be useful to me. After four minutes of the demo video I know enough to want to download and play with your system. #SmallWeb

1. Picture of a book titled "Ducks:How to make them pay." Above it is the following brief customer review: "Let me tell you | was bitterly disappointed to learn that this book is, in fact, an instructional guide to ‘the profitable husbandry of ducks as a craft. There is not one sliver of insight about holding ducks accountable for their crimes against “humanity, Earth or God.""

I get the italics, bold, and block quotes, too. If somebody isn't getting that, and it's important enough to them, they can easily migrate to an instance that will provide the markup. I actually did that myself a couple of weeks ago, but for reasons unrelated to the capabilities of the social media server. My old account was on a Mastodon instance called musician.social, and my new account is running Akkoma, a hard fork of Pleroma.

Despite running a completely different implementation, Akkoma was capable of migrating my Mastodon followers, followed, and other settings over. My old posts couldn't be migrated, but I find this limitation acceptable. I can understand why some may be wary of migrating.

@JorgeStolfi @jupiter_rowland @valhalla @jakob @cstross I'm not an implementer, but it's my understanding that the recipient can tell the sender what it can handle, while the sender may include a source attribute containing the original content, as well as the transformed content that complies with the recipient's stated requirements.

I think somebody above referred to the notion of degrading gracefully, and that's certainly possible using such mechanisms.

I play the #ElectricBass very badly and I've also tried my hand at bad #Drumming .
