Awesome article about #css shadows https://www.joshwcomeau.com/css/designing-shadows/
This makes a lot of sense considering they were already moving forward with making Wordpress and Tumblr using the same background tech. Automattic might seem slow compared to the rest of the tech companies, but they’re coming really strong. https://mstdn.starnix.network/@james/109383216136147163

Apparently there are now 36k+ #mastodon servers out there. I don’t think that #Twitter has that much 😅 https://bitcoinhackers.org/@mastodonusercount/109383333226761012
I use #Twitter to get product/service support a lot. Because complaining on Twitter works better and way easier than writing an email or calling them. I hope we’ll see some companies comes to #Mastodon too. Mastodon would be even better also for companies since this is an open app and protocol that they can freely automatize and integrate within their systems.
The <img> element now supports lazy-loading, async decoding, Priority Hints and more. I wrote about some of them for the StackOverflow blog: https://bit.ly/soimgs
Helpful if optimizing UX & performance.
Oh. My. God.
Every time someone on Twitter tweets a link to joinmastodon.com, the following message pops up:
"We can't complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful. Visit our Help Center to learn more."

We are extremely proud of the work accomplished at #W3C in the Social Web group, culminating in 2018 in the release of the #ActivityPub standard, a notable implementation of which is... #mastodon !
We are also humbled and inspired by the energy that we are seeing on the Fediverse, the good will, how constructive and helpful discourse embodies truly social interactions.

Hey there, Admin of the Internet Archive Mastodon here. I've seen some people speculate/rumor that the Archive's mastodon instance is set up to be an involuntary vacuum spot for all toots passing back into the Wayback, and it is NOT that. Any archiving of toots would be some other project (and outside my knowledge) but the Internet Archive Mastodon is just another instance, doing the mastodon thing. Communicate with us at will.
Another design consideration re: Mastodon is that it works well for ephemeral asynchronous communications, but for many reasons should not be counted on as an archival resource. Media attachments are periodically purged and may not be available after a week, or a month, etc. While some servers may try to preserve content forever, this may be costly and unsustainable. Creators, researchers should treat this as an ephemeral resource and make provisions for self-archiving anything important.
About an hour ago there was an explosion in İstiklal Street, #Istanbul. According to the early information and images there were several casualties and likely a bomb dropped in a bag.
But right now we can’t have more information because government media watchdog banned any news about it and according to my OONI Probe test results from couple mins ago, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube access is blocked in #Turkey.
I feel resource requirements of #Mastodon is an important topic for others’ joining here. Everyday I read posts about how a viral post of theirs effected their servers and they needed to pay more and more for their servers.
We are used to have peace of mind about the cost of being viral in current centralized social media. If being viral costs a lot, this will not be acceptable for indie content creators. We need more optimized Mastodon as well as more affordable hosting services.
