That 500 character (uconfigurable) limit in #mastodon is extremely annoying. I have to move over to #friendica every time there are anything to explain. Hrrrrmmm.

forks have their own problems, I guess, but I do not want to spend too much time on microblogging which I don't really like. I am way more verbose than that.

Aww. I see. Well this gts instance has 5000 chars, enough for me I guess. But also no bad in being verbose. :) Makes for better explanations. :)

If you run your own server, you can migrate to the glitch-soc soft-fork, where you can set the limit to a considerably higher value, and still keep the rest of Mastodon.

You also get plenty of other nice goodies, like... drumroll Markdown formatted toots!

ooohkay, you're the second imaginary friend suggesting that, I'll check. 😁
in reply to grin

whaat? Wait? Are we imaginary friends? I am offended. I will suddenly become a "bugger" now. :P Hometown used to be nice, but it was suddenly goodbye maintenance. So, sad times. I think cafe also is a fork but I know nothing of it, I was registered a year or so ago, and just left, looks a little bit like, glitch is, with its flavours and what not. :)

I'm your imaginary friend, you're my imaginary friend. We're all virtual! Algernon is also virtual.
Glitch is real, but by god, it's even crappier than mastodon. πŸ˜ƒ

Gasps. So if I come to visit you and say hi, I'll still be virtual? Noooo. I protest against being virtual. :D I should round up every EU follower I have and we should all have a meeting in like, the middle of EU. :D Dreams are free, right? also. I don't know how crappy it is Masto just, takes up lots resources, so we don't even run it. I don't like the interface, anyway. But don't tell it to mastodon, it might decide to "glitch" for real, one day, then you'll be blaming me. because I said I dislike it. LOL

Way back when in my late teens, I was fascinated by weird philosophies and personalities and whatnot, so I asked myself how many personalities I have. I received one response, and 514 did not respond. So I concluded I have -513 personalities. As such, I am very much virtual, indeed. @grin 's observation is, therefore, correct. At least about me.

Also about glitch. But I have that contained.

Unfortunately, I no longer remember. I only remember this part, because I like to drive my mother crazy with it.

Hahahaha. Good good. Out of an endless number of personalities, I was virtualised few years ago. I no longer feel virtualised. I have received nice human treatment, free of medicine human treatment. You see, non-virtual things can be helpful. But yeah, for real. The voices in my head. Are gone. I feel more normal. Alright, I am still considering myself slightly, virtual, but that's, because we all are, aren't we? :D But all my imaginary friends and foes are gone. Hahaha. Only nice virtualised but real friends stayed. So, you could say I was fascinated with my own health, at one point, too. and that included personalities. Wasn't exactly a teen though, I think, when I decided to pay attention to my daily glitches. ;)
