does anyone use wasteof for android for anything other than notifications? i’m not trying to be negative at all, it’s a great app and micah did great work on it but it’s just a bit weird to use compared to the website, i’m not sure why

hi can people stop complaining about repost chains please. it really bugs me, since it’s meta about people just having fun. there is, as far as i’m aware, no strain on the servers from doing it (i would imagine they’re simply a reference to the post, which is then dereferenced n times for the api representation). on the website, you have to explicitly click to reveal sub-posts, meaning it’s your fault if it gets large, and you can reload if it screws up your layout. as for wasteof for android, you can just Not Look At The Post. that’s an option. sure, it’s a little bit annoying to scroll past, but you are using a third party client (even if it’s labelled official), that isn’t developed by jeffalo. it’s also probably on micah’s to-do list. additionally, like tumblr, reposting is the only way to add a comment to something while making show as an original post. jeffalo could do like tumblr did and change the post to show on the same layer as the original post, meaning it doesn’t fuck up the layout the further in the post gets. then, there could just be a view more button like the current implementation.

i’m unironically going to use gnustep as my de when i reinstall. i watched that nextstep video ages ago and thought “damn that seems really good” and i happened to recieve gnustep applications on my computer when i installed the objective-c compiler, so i tried a few and it’s absolutely amazing

just wanted to remind the people here that children (and all the other kinds of people who deserve to live) are still being bombed and starved in Gaza

I know that this is mostly a site about things like programming or art or other generally casual topics, but I do feel like this isn’t being talked about enough on here, I haven’t seen anything about it in my feed for weeks, if not over a month

Please at least think and/or talk about this crisis, thank you

due to a spam attack by japanese skids, the approximate user count of the fediverse shot up from roughly ten million to fifty million in a week

i know a large percentage of my followers/wasteof community are software devs or are at least somewhat familiar with software, so it would be funny if i made federated wasteof clone and we all self hosted

there could be a fork of wasteof.mobile that supported servers, too

EDIT: and i’m expecting to see a lot of javascript repls and stuff. that would be cool! i would support that
