@Gargron Had the same reaction at a jazz show recently. Great music, but had to look down half the time to not be frustrated by the creepiness and jitters in the slightly animated art projections. If they'd just projected the real human-made afrofuturist pictures they'd riffed off of (ripped off), I would have loved the show.

@Gargron Thank you for all you have done, Eugen!

@Gargron Have an extremely good rest!

@joeinwynnewood @mekkaokereke @dgoldsmith @dansup @mastodonmigration Starter pack better idea: emphasize in onboarding choosing a few hashtags to follow.

- doesn't require someone to curate a list
- doesn't reinforce a fame culture
- doesn't require knowing / guessing who to pick
- if placed in onboarding flow after initial people follows are picked, the suggested hashtags list perhaps could be populated with those used recently by those people, along with hashtags the server admin choose

@MicroSFF Yay! Great!

(And I've been watching lots of Time Team Sutton Hoo content lately, so this has interesting connotations. 😁)

@Gargron I've been scanning old family pictures and this has very strong 'family trip in 1974' energy. 💖

@Moby_MicroDick I can report that the new cooperative climate-change-fighting board game Daybreak is really good and comes in a bright cheerful box likely to repel tedious people if you and the teens want another couple hours escape in another room.

@Gargron Can highly recommend white “silk” flowers. Looks fantastic with white lights and a few ornaments.

@Gargron Happy birthday, Eugen! Thank you for all you do!

Everybody, boost those cat pictures!

@Gargron "Hmmmm," {strokes beard} "You would like to give Mastodon venture capital? Hmmmm." {beard stroking abruptly ceases} "No. Next!"

@Gargron The collective work to accommodate so many new users in such a short time is both awe-inspiring and deeply encouraging about the future of the #Fediverse. Thanks so much to you and all who work on #Mastodon.

We see your work. We value it.

Yes, we've got lessons to learn, improvements to make, inclusivity to improve, and systems to strengthen, but we're off to a good start. I'm excited!

@Gargron You are amazing! Thank you for all you do! ??
