Canadian, occupying land resulting from bad faith deals with indigenous peoples, between Toronto and Ottawa. @ 314.8 PPM CO² . Privilege is transparent to the privileged.

I'm aphantasic. I process abstractions. Abstract algebra is intuitive to me.

As a sighted person, a 23-character long all-lowercase hashtag made from several words is hard enough to parse. For a visually impaired person or a screen-reader, it's friggin impossible. Use CamelCaseInYourHashtags! for the cost of a few shift keys, you'll make it SO much easier for everyone.

@neil @Gargron As much as I love regexes, simple wild-carding would do, and avoid excessive load. For example: "#*politic*" would make a lot of people very happy (not me obviously, but I bet this would be in wide use).

and on a related note, it would be good if @thunderbird updated the social media links on their website to include Mastodon (and in an ideal world stop supporting a racist, fascist turd by removing their links to X, but that might be too much to ask).
[Edit: they do have the link on most pages, it seems I was on a specific landing page that missed the Mastodon link.]

@willbeason I know people who have been using this, with tweaks, to write their marketing blog for months now.
