Child A's first wobbly tooth fell out yesterday at nursery, and they didn't even notice! We only spotted the gap in the evening when I was helping them brush their teeth. They were very upset they couldn't leave anything for the #toothfairy , or get a coin for it. But don't worry, #German paperwork to the rescue. I created a mini 'lost tooth' form that we've filled out and put under the pillow instead, I'm sure it'll work out 😉
Bugfix rate in the #curl project is currently racing to an all-time high.
(yes, presumably this also means we insert more bugs as well as there need to be something to fix...)

@esoteric_programmer this article describes FediNuke. A subset of a subset of the pleroma.envs.net blocklist, with receipts, for the worst instances on Fedi. It’s designed to be suitable for new admins who don’t know a good starting point but are wary of most blocklists.
The linked article describes how it’s made and the criteria I use. The bar for inclusion is higher than most lists: staff with Nazi imagery, staff participating in targeted harassment campaigns against marginalized users by sending shock content and sui-bait, staff posting anti-Black and antisemitic racial caricatures, etc. are all common reasons to end up on the list.
You can either scroll through receipts and pick which instances you want to block, or just import and review later.
Documentation on which Fediverse blocklists I offer, how they are made, their differences, their caveats, and their intended use.Seirdy’s Home
