I use BSD instead of Linux because I think Torvalds is a jerk I use Lyft instead of Uber because I think Kalanick is a jerk And now I use Mastodon instead of Twitter because I think Musk is a jerk @litherum@masto.ai

@TiroTypeworks @mekkablue @Apple All of this comes from 3 inescapable truths: 1) PCs were designed around 1 physical pixel = 3/4 typographic pt 2) Macs were designed around 1 physical (non-retina) pixel = 1 typographic pt 3. Integral non-fractional CSS px values should be crisp on both

I am at the point where I advise people who want to use variable fonts to not use @InDesign or other @Adobe apps anymore. Apparently they stopped caring about type. They have the MOST buggy implementation of variable fonts today. Even beats the 5y old @Apple Safari opsz bug.

@Litherum I think you can opt to run your own server with just you on it - it just takes some work. You won’t have a local feed but I think most people looking for a Twitter replacement want the federated feed anyway. You can apparently trivially transfer your full presence between servers

I don’t understand how to sign up for Mastodon. I have to choose a server? What happens if the people running the server take it down? Is my account just gone? Why do I have to distinguish between “game developer litherum” vs “social litherum” vs “tech professional litherum”?

I guess I should pick @mastodon.social because that is the least opinionated name and probably the least chance of them just deciding to turn it off

Twitter was trash anyway. Can I have Twitter if you decide to throw it away?
