And now @julian is getting more serious

@julian shouting out Fediscovery and the Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider for better discovery tools on the Fediverse

@quillmatiq @julian

That is spot on

@julian talking about the work he's doing so users can sign into other instances using your handle.

HELL YES

@quillmatiq @julian This is something I've been working on too: https://codeberg.org/FenTiger/FedIAM

Maybe we should collaborate.

Is there (or will there be) a video of this talk somewhere?

@FenTiger @julian Yes! I believe @reiver will be posting all of these soon after the conference is done

@quillmatiq @julian

I've been in all three of these scenarios!

@ahimsa_pdx @julian many such cases!

@quillmatiq @julian

I'm also very familiar with "Open original page" when certain replies aren't loading, or when images aren't loading.

@quillmatiq @julian hashtags are part of the text which encourages people to use less hashtags so that they can write more actual text instead.
this also reduces the searchability because people cannot append appropriate hashtags that the original author might have forgotten.

if tags were a separate list they could be added to similarly to how we can add emoji to other people's posts and they wouldn't subtract from the space for the actual text.

loganer@mastodon.social actually...

> if tags were a separate list

They are, per the protocol. For the same reason I derided mention spamming in my presentation, tags don't need to be in the post body either.

@julian but in the interface you still write it in into the same area as the rest of the text and it still counts on the character counter. #AsYouCanSeeHere
