And this is their 'doodle' in question.

PeerTube have updated their official app, you can now sign in with a PeerTube account 🥳

Unfortunately Apple & Google are being crap:

:apple_old_logo: Apple App Store users can only sign in on the built-in server list, Apple won't allow manually adding servers

:google: Google Play users can manually add unlisted servers

:fdroid: F-Droid users get a *much* wider server list and can add servers manually

You can avoid app store problems by using PeerTube's web app: https://fedi.tips/how-to-install-web-apps-for-mastodon-and-the-fediverse

3.5 hour internet outages...

When they want you overwhelmed, your rest is a rebellious act.

Gotta say, I've never gotten to make a whole ass asset sheet for the UI elements before, but since I figured out sub-regions... yeh it's neat stuff!

I'll definitely continue working on that more, though, but I like where this is going already.

If a friend mentions that a particular joke "has layers to it", you may not be ready to jump down *that* rabbit hole.

Sorry, I don't make the rules, neither am I the one to enforce it. That's just how it is.

For people wondering about what's the deal with Fosstodon:

The Fosstodon instance had (until yesterday) a moderator who not only held far right views outside the fediverse, but also was a moderator of a ton of subreddit where he seemed to have used his position to silence LGBT or anti-trump news: https://lemm.ee/post/59705025 https://fosstodon.org/@lo__@mastodon.social/114392446312715687

The response from Fosstodon admins has been underwhelming to say the least. Eventually said moderator deleted their Mastodon (and Reddit) account, but we have yet to see any real acknowledgement from Fosstodon admins.

Many instances have reacted by some level of defederation (from limiting to full suspend).

I actually cannot think of a sentence to post.

AAAAAAAAGH—

Today Melissa Lewis over on BlueSky pointed out that the font used nin the infamous "You wouldn't steal a car" anti-piracy campaign was actually designed by Just van Rossum, whose brother, Guido, created the Python programming language (bsky.app/profile/melissa.news/post/3ln7hx5rhcj2v)

She also pointed out that the font had been cloned and released illegally for free under the name "XBAND Rough". Naturally, it would be hilarious if the anti-piracy campaign actually turned out to have used this pirated font, so I went sleuthing and quickly found a PDF from the campaign site with the font embedded (web.archive.org/web/20051223202935/http://www.piracyisacrime.com:80/press/pdfs/150605_8PP_brochure.pdf).

So I chucked it into FontForge and yep, turns out the campaign used a pirated font the entire time!
