@monorail yeah i found it funny at the time too :p
i just realized i didn't really explain why I felt that way at the time
@monorail tbf, I understand the problem 7-bag is designed to solve, as perfect randomness is inherently unfair (here's your 40 drought of I pieces, etc.)
I just think it should be 14-bag at a minimum
@unascribed (same game, same energy,)
excuse me, github
i don't think this is how dates work
it's that time of year
@unascribed @typhlosion i guess it just checks for messages starting with that and shows them differently, then? hm,
@unascribed @typhlosion matrix (or at least element) supports it, thankfully,
but yeah,,
@unascribed @typhlosion am I the only one that just uses /me anymore ,,,
(I really need to fix polls not showing up here)
@unascribed i resemble this remark,
@monorail @unascribed @Kat can confirm the bell is only there if you follow someone
@unascribed it's okay, it's mastodon's own fault that i'm super skeptical and worried any time any possible interference to federation comes up :p
@unascribed yeah, that figures
guess it's much ado about nothing, in the end
@unascribed oh, yeah, i never really refollowed many people after everything that happened to monsterpit, so that would explain it
i don't know how many of the accounts that i used to follow are even still active, anyway
@unascribed i do follow jenbot but i think it might be the only one i'm following anymore, *shrug*
@unascribed that's indeed correct
@unascribed that's going to be fun because i don't have an instance actor
@unascribed ah, the fun of delving into mastodon's source to see exactly what changed to try to 'fix' something that you're pretty sure doesn't even apply to you, but you need to make it look like you've fixed it
@unascribed that's the hackiest hacked up nonsense and exactly the type of thing i *don't* want to see the fediverse doing
