Warning: fediverse scam alert
You've promised yourself that you'll sit down to just read a few toots and, two hours later, you've read 500+ toots, made six new friends, and installed Linux or BSD on your laptop.
What a scam.

Sounds like you've found a space you can enjoy 😇👍
@neil haha That happens to me when I open my Tito Schipa folder! "I'll just listen to a few songs and arias." Two hours later... "Where did the time go!"
@neil

@psile a friend said "some frogs change sex when there are too many males in the pond, and funnily enough this is also true of programmers"
ooh a memento mori, i whisper and settle in for another hour of scrolling
@neil I never thought about hosting my own cloud storage until I joined here! What is this place doing to my mind???
@neil 6 NEW FRIENDS
How is this possible
How is this possible
@neil Pardon, but is that Berkeley Software Distribution, or Bungo Stray Dogs?
@neil
Heh. I outsourced the actual installation process to my child, but other than this I'm in this toot 😅

@neil Oh, That's terrible
@neil Eh.......
@neil Followed by the restless nights wondering what is going on with those beige.party people.
@neil
And you've seen hundred of cat pics
@neil It should be called fedirabbitholeverse.
@neil Fedi’s biggest scam is the bookmark option.
Every post with an article I intend to read that I bookmark immediately and permanently disappears into the ether.
Weird how that works…
@neil *Oh.*
@neil
I even have Linux working on a business laptop - productive 🥹

I need a shower
@neil I've just downloaded Ubuntu again... What the hell? I wanted to be a Windows user!
@neil But I gotta pee!
@neil fediverse not even once, ohhh
@neil I believed you until you said “BSD on a LAPTOP” not likely. ;)
@neil Ah, yes, the Fedi Slop.
@neil Bloody engagement specialists, constantly optimizing to maximize the amount of attention they get from us
(Ok, by prioritizing content that is relevant, informative or pleasant, but still?!! It’s not fair!)
@neil without any AI, bots or algorithms. Crazy, isn't it?
@neil
Also, you’re a furry now.

@neil it's a rip-off, man!
@neil Yep, you got converted! LOL!
@neil I already have Linux on my laptop, so it's time to BSD then?
@neil The pipeline is real.
And it is beautiful.
@neil Dont threaten me with a good time
@neil Why "Linux or BSD"? Why not "Linux *and* BSD" either via dual boot or some VMs.
@karlauerbach @neil wise choice!
@neil
In all likelihood, you've also been inundated with cats in various states of unconcern for your well-being Neil.

"i'll just read a few toots. i can stop any time i want."
@neil Your account is being deactivated. Confirm your identity by submitted 10+ kernel bug reports or 1+ driver patches within the next 24 hours.
@neil *sobbing uncontrollably* Look away! The self hosting is hideous.
@neil
Haha yes, that's me.
Haha yes, that's me.
@neil Either that or some rando recommends you install Linux on your Nintendo 64 🤣
