[03:20:14] It's just that I don't want to hear about politics [03:20:27] The "not interested in this post" button does jack shit [03:20:48] Maybe you need to unfollow some people and follow kitty posting accounts [03:21:04] I looked through my followers [03:21:09] I'm just following games and anime and stuff [03:21:19] [1/2] I get a lot of this in my twitter [03:21:20] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1246302534532857959/db602b14ff9400e23acd1afc48b51d3f.jpg?ex=665be52f&is=665a93af&hm=83dd1bb9cb3d2268195a87043ef934898d1459ff6509cd29d2834ff2f23acea9& [03:21:22] I just logged in to check [03:21:23] cute [03:23:30] catu [03:23:58] [[c:File:Cat in basin.jpg]] [03:23:58] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cat_in_basin.jpg [03:23:59] [03:30:55] lmaoo [03:31:01] yeah its cute tho [05:49:54] https://archive.is/J85kL [07:25:16] XD [07:25:27] I'm someone who blocks very liberally [07:26:12] My blocklists contain everything from neonazis to people with annoying hot takes, to people who just clog up the tag I wanna search [08:00:00] I can see quite a strong bias in this one. I think I need to write a 2000 word essay that will be unbiased [08:06:44] I remember blocking one dude who was a total rando (when my tweet was aimed at friends) and very persistent [08:06:50] otherwise it's always bots [08:07:18] and I just mute everyone who shits in search [08:07:43] I don't happen to have arguments etc, I'm chronically unpopular lol [09:30:54] I don't use the block button except blocking people in mw [09:44:31] Shall we make a page listing Discord servers of Miraheze wikis? [09:45:04] if not, or at least not now, then I'll prepare a list on my wiki [09:51:33] [1/2] Block or ignore buttons are more than fine, if you aren't using social media as an indicator of how real life actually is. I mean, if you are aware they're basically a platform used for social intoxication, there's nothing wrong on blocking those users who make your experience disgusting or don't allow you to focus on the content you were seeking - as long as the eco-chamber you'll cr [09:51:33] [2/2] eate for yourself doesn't lead you to believe that the messages you'll be reading are the real truth. Because they won't, they'll just be the other side of the spectrum.

Ie i use this account with my irl friends [16:35:55] Fair [16:36:42] signal been hyped up recently a lot [16:36:47] same lmao, my irl friends know way too much about me to bother creating a second account XD [16:36:48] haven't tried still [16:36:58] I've used it for years [16:37:14] I already had a hard time to get my friend into discord after deleting vk [16:37:22] (they still don't check) [16:37:47] and I hate telegram [16:37:48] Mostly to message myself but I do have one good online friend who I shared phone numbers with because we both had Signal and I've known them for probably 3 or 4 years now [16:38:19] I originally created my account to join the server of a Tumblr blog (both are now gone), forgot about it for a while, and then started using it again when I met one of my IRL friends and she wanted to add me on Discord [16:38:38] Awesome lol [16:55:35] yeah tbh I know many don't but I've got a different Discord account for any IRL activites [16:55:44] I like to keep my Miraheze life separate 😄 [16:56:22] [1/2] There were a few instances where I did see the text of an article on the part where there is a link like "X is a character...", no joke [16:56:22] [2/2] I don't remember any specific example though. [16:56:27] I don't really like my IRL identity being connected with my wiki identity [16:56:35] Yeah [16:57:20] Interestingly enough I've never given my phone number to anyone on the internet before [16:57:43] also because most people I know are from the US so they wouldn't really want/need to contact me there anyway and it would cost them unless they use an app like whatsapp/telegram/etc. [16:59:17] I do know that most people in the US tend to use SMS/text messages but in my experience in Europe it's very different and almost everyone I know uses WhatsApp or Signal and almost never regular texts [16:59:21] [1/2] tbh I do [16:59:21] [2/2] I've been editing wikis for almost a decade, the whole hobby is just part of me, and something I could include in a resume [16:59:35] and it was the bridge to me getting to computer science [16:59:42] yea i put miraheze on my resume [16:59:45] Yeah that's fair, that makes sense for some [16:59:49] speaking of which, I finished my bs :p [16:59:54] And I have attended irl wiki events [16:59:57] HELL YEA [16:59:57] Nice! [17:00:00] thx [17:00:18] IRL people knowing your wiki identity is probably better than wiki people knowing your IRL identity tbh [17:00:24] yea [17:00:37] especially as a steward/director, it's not nice knowing that people you sanction might retaliate somehow that way [17:00:49] Most of the people there are established and trusted members of wikimedia and om not super memorable lol [17:00:51] I put wikis, didn't specify, cuz I've worked and continue to work on all wiki platforms tbh [17:00:53] there's some not nice people on the internet [17:01:01] You don’t say [17:01:10] I do know that someone actually got a "hate mail" letter at some point, though I won't say who [17:01:15] so this isn't a remote possibility either [17:02:24] Yeah those things are one of the big reasons why I don't give out my irl identity, even if it's a low chance I get nasty messages every now and then and I think it's best to keep my online identity sandboxed [17:02:47] I know people who actually got stalked/harassed/swatted irl because they pissed someone off online which is very unfortunate [17:03:32] I do real some info like my irl name, age, and country, maybe some other things I do irl, but not much more than that [17:03:37] Yeah exactly. Many disadvantages and very few advantages [17:03:43] Yea [17:03:57] yeah I mean general info like that is fine, I think pretty much everyone here knows that kind of info about our volunteers [17:05:08] I may have already shared a lot of my RL info on Facebook or Wikimedia projects [17:06:18] Most people online know how old I am and what state I'm from and some of my backstory on how I ended up using the Internet so much and some emails and social media accounts that I use for online activity but only a very small amount of people (like 3 people) know more than that, they're people I've known for years who I trust with more personal info [17:06:21] normally not name but country and general age ja [17:06:33] Yea [17:07:00] yeah name is a bit much for some. Country or at least continent is definitely known or probably easy to find out [17:07:08] Yea [17:07:18] timezone from activity [17:07:28] A lot of volunteers are from the US anyway [17:07:29] although no one here actually follows sleeping schedules so [17:07:38] yes lol, I wouldn't say that's a given [17:07:46] 🦅 🇺🇸 [17:07:49] if you look at CA's activity you'd have no idea! [17:07:55] I could probably have obfuscated that if I really try to but I thought it wasn't worth the effort [17:07:57] here in Vietnam is midnight actually [17:08:13] Lol interesting [17:08:16] BTW, just for my interests, are there schedules when the PRs on Github are merged? [17:08:18] 7pm here [17:08:27] lmao [17:08:41] There's no schedule no, people just merge when they're around [17:08:45] From my experience not really (and I've had some PRs stay open for weeks) [17:09:00] if that happens do feel free to ping me or someone else in Tech [17:09:05] unfortunately it's easy to forget PRs [17:09:05] Alr [17:09:22] It's 10 am here, I just woke up lol [17:09:35] Got it [17:09:40] Always kinda fascinating talking about timezones and such and realizing how it's possible to talk to people from so far away [17:09:56] btw just cooked something for the UploadWizard [17:09:57] now you've revealed in which part of the US you're in heh [17:10:07] Yeah I've said it before lol [17:10:27] yeah, usually I tend to talk to US people during the morning and for them it's almost midnight [17:10:32] Yea [17:10:43] so I always end up having to say good night to everyone when I've barely woken up [17:10:52] Yea rip [17:10:57] Ah cool [17:11:23] we Miraheze people seem to love talking about timezones as this isn't the first time in #offtopic [17:11:28] I remember a long timezone conversation a few months back [17:11:49] Ah yes, there it is: https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/615786602454581249/1224454478632194179 [17:12:04] Ah cool, I'll read it [17:12:17] It's very history intense [17:12:37] TL;DR - timezones are arbitrary and based on rivalries between countries [17:27:54] 8:27pm for me [17:28:11] middle eastern boiii [17:31:00] ESEAP here lol [18:00:03] I forgot to post this when the discussion started [18:07:44] Ah yes... that discussion 😂 [18:21:02] lol [18:21:21] time zones are always a great discussion [18:23:19] And after that comes the half-yearly discussions about daylight saving time. 🤣 [18:23:45] lol yes [18:23:54] daylight savings time [18:24:07] aka the conversation that I don't have any interest in [18:24:12] lmao [18:25:23] I always say... you win some and you lose some, only in half-year intervals 😂 [18:25:30] exactly [18:25:39] to me its the difference between [18:25:47] gaining an hour of sleep [18:25:51] or losing it [18:25:52] so meh [18:26:08] idk what else to say about it lol [19:06:34] What?
