There's a buzzin' in my brain I really can't explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed. (he/him/his)
It's available on kbin and can be accessed (to some degree) via this very Lemmy instance: https://midwest.social/c/Buttcoin@kbin.social
I did just learn that users on lemmy.world can't access that community until a patch is installed that allows connecting to kbin magazines with capital letters in their names, so we have a leg up on them.
How does one get flair here?
Also, because I'm bad at image-memeing, blåhaj sounds like what you do when you've had a few and a cop pulls you over.
I hope that this doesn't lead to fracturing the way it apparently did on Mastodon, where every instance that federated with a set of known-bad instances was itself added to the list of "known-bad" instances that the main instances ought to de-federate from (or maybe it will have to be that way to keep out the trolls); to put it another way, I hope that whichever side ends up being the more useful one in this split (beehaw.org or lemmy.world & sh.itjust.works) is the one that midwest.social gets to keep federating with, if it comes to that, or else I'll need to bother joining beehaw or sh.itjust.works directly.
(I forget whether I had to go through an involved process to register on midwest.social, but I know it's not one of the instances with open registration.)
Hello from midwest.social
This server seems to have some trouble at the moment, and I'm testing the ability to subscribe and post to communities outside of one's own instance.
I joined a while back (after the rise of Mastodon following some edgelord's purchase of Twitter, although I had heard about both that and Lemmy long before), and I still probably won't be active on Lemmy until Reddit dies off; I joined this instance because it's the most relevant (nothing akin to Mathstodon, where I have the same username) and I was advised against just flocking to the main one.
I was most active on /r/learnmath and /r/Buttcoin and I might go to refugee communities related to both, and to things like /r/learnjavascript (where I was active until a few years ago, also as an answerer of questions) and /r/badmathematics.
