This is super interesting, thank you for tagging me. After my migration last week I had 1,000 followers listed (down from before migration). By my approximation only about 20-25 of those could actually see my posts. It took me a while to figure this out.
All followers were (as expected) listed as following me. But essentially everyone had what natbas is describing, a pending follow request. I also donât have, and never have had, approval of follows activated.
So when follow requests fail, they get queued, and it tends to look like this. People who follow you think youâre not approving their request and you yourself think theyâre following you, because that is what their profile says. Very frustrating.
How long it will take for servers to try and renegotiate will vary but I have heard mention to me that Mastodon servers will stop trying after a week and then be stuck in this state.
@xian If it would mean killing all parallax effects on websites Iâm all for it.
@lee I canât remember if we talked about it back on Twitter, Lee, but Iâm a huge fan of your work. Your RSS and Wiki videos of course, but I also really appreciated the Art of Explanation as well as Big Enough. The former is definitely a primary reason I started making more explainer videos for clients which has been a huge success.
My first explainer video, almost 11 years ago now, was just sketches and hands pulling in those sketches (though all digital rather than true CommonCraft style).
That video explained the goal of a project (a national behavioral therapy platform for Sweden) with how people were using and managing this future product.
It took 3 years to develop the tool and when we were done it could do everything in that video and even the rough sketches matched the interface. That blev my mind. It was such a powerful tool for bringing a common vision to the team, where different devs came and went through the years.
When I hear you mention a platform I know youâve done your due diligence :)
@fiaewald Du Ă€r sĂ„ bra Fia! Tack för allt du skriver och delar med dig av. Ville bara fĂ„ det sagt đ
@xian Haha wonderful. My favorite transcription typo for my name is Paradox Bomb. đŁ
â ïž Rant about accessibility
@nickcolley @blindscribe
Had this conversation (yet again, sigh) with a client earlier this morning. This person being someone who understood though:
We won't make any progress if all these projects keep building first and then start thinking about accessibility later on. Accessibility has to be front and center. Otherwise you did not build a usable thing at all, and you likely will have to redo stuff to improve it and you won't because you'll claim resources are depleted by then and you'll start loving the excuse "come on, it works for most people".
And the appeal for help... "we built this thing, can someone help us make it accessible please (for free please)" sounds at first like a friendly voice but also says a lot about how low of a priority accessibility has been up until then and likely will continue to be.
Sorry, just needed to get this out of my system⊠People could very well be the nicest of persons and have the best of intent, but WCAG 1.0 came out in 1999. That's now 24 years ago. WCAG 2.0 in 2008. If you build stuff for the web, why are you deciding to ignore all this vast amount of knowledge that is available for free?
@krig Hmm, weird.
@janne Ah, nice one. I like it. đ
@Tattooed_mummy This truly made me laugh out loud.
@Tattooed_mummy Haha, that's what I wanted to hear. They have written 1 paragraph per question. I have written 5-6 đ
@krig Please do :)
@bkhl
I think so. I searched on their website before I posted because I wanted to make sure I wrote the correct one.
Interesting about the number of native speakers left!
@ChrisJKelly Awesome. I attended a jojk-concert last summer and in the right setting it can be absolutely stunning.
@LeoR1010
Tack, mÄste testa detta!
@ambivalena
@LeoR1010 @ambivalena Vilken veg-bacon anvÀnder du till detta?
@kallekn
Ah, det ringer en klocka om att jag kan ha lÀst nÄgot sÄdant. FÄr forska lite i det, men kÀnns som det ska mycket till att man ska blocka en mjukvara rakt av baserat pÄ att det finns nÄgra rötÀgg som anvÀnder den.

Verkar som jag att det faktiskt Àr dÀrför Akkoma skapades, för att bryta sig loss frÄn "free speech"-falangen(!)
@JoWa @jens
Hmm, har inte hört att det finns tydliga grÀnser för att vissa inte federerar med just Pleroma?
Men ja, Akkoma Àr ju en fork av Pleroma. Lite snabbare och smidigare. Jag gillar sjÀlv kontrollen över antal tecken, skriva HTML och markdown, samt kanske framför allt trÄdningen. Mastodon hanterar ju knappt trÄdning, men Akkoma lÀser in alla svar i en trÄd och visar hierarkin dem emellan. SvÄrare att missa nÄgot.
Ăr vĂ€ldigt förtjust i grĂ€nssnittet för egen del. Lite missar i tillgĂ€nglighet (kontraster och sĂ„) men man kan ocksĂ„ designa ett eget grĂ€nssnitt vilket Ă€r trevligt.
@JoWa
Oklart, haha. Har inte hittat en instÀllning som motsvarar den Mastodon har. Verkar snarare gÄ pÄ webblÀsarens sprÄk. Men engelska Àr nog default, Àven om jag satt att instansen ska hantera engelska och svenska (har inte listat ut vad den instÀllningen gör Ànnu).
Gissar att mina inlÀgg hÀr hamnar pÄ svenska för dig dÄ Mastodon tycker det baserat pÄ att jag svarar pÄ ett svenskt inlÀgg.
