Hi Twtxt people! I'm The Canine from @thecanine Some people say Yarn is better than Mastodon, so now I'm here to test - I guess. I'm and IT student drawing pixelart, have a few sites and code in C#. Just going to test posting my profile picture as an image here and try adding a few hashtags, to see if those work. #PixelArt #Art #FirstPost #Test `Console.WriteLine("Woah, this place has a code embedding feature?");`

(#phupz3q) Nova, well at least they posted "twtx > fediverse" in a XMPP chatroom we share. So I thought I'd check this thing out. I've never heard about it before, but it works pretty well in browser, so that's a positive surprise. I'm a bit disappointed the image only showed up as link (probably have to look into that image feature a bit more) and that me saying `@thecanine@mstdn.social` somehow got automatically shortened to @thecanine here. 🤔

(#wslehwa) Glad you like the profile pic. Also speaking of the instances, I was actually wondering if there was an instance list somewhere, as I was only able to find this instance and the We💚Privacy one. There were three listed on your site, but it looks like the third one no longer works. 🤔

(#qjwta3a) I'd be happy to. It's pretty impressive you have an app this close to release already. Mastodon didn't have one for a really long time and only got an official one recently. It's still iOS only and in my opinion useless compared to the unofficial ones, as removing a timeline makes it completely unusable for users like me + the fact I'd never buy an Apple doesn't help it either. 😄

(#phupz3q) I get that, but shouldn't it only shorten `@thecanine@twtxt.net` and not `@canine@anything`? 🤔

(#wslehwa) Maybe you can add Reddit style upvotes and downvotes along with some basic source search tool and get $2 M in EU funding. I've heard that's the winning strategy these days. 😂

@prologic (#lzfgc3q) What is the difference between forking a conversation and replying in it?

@prologic (#lzfgc3q) but I also saw you quoting other messages, so I guess that's the third option that I wasn't able to find yet. 🤔

@prologic (#7x6gora) You still have a lot to learn from the Mastodon devs. You need to present this as a feature introduced to prevent the spread of misinformation, by making it impossible for people to change their old posts and making the likes (that this site doesn't have*) and replies look bad and all that. *not having likes might be both good and bad, good because I don't have to worry about them and bad, because now I only have the follower count to fuel my unjustified sense of self importance. 😂 But I guess I can add my own like footer: ```Likes: 9999 Shares: 9998```
