- I try to be open and honest in discussions. I don't answer toots that are clearly in bad faith. I've made the experience that deep discussions are not possible on Mastodon.

Please.
- Photos with watermarks – It's art. Either gift it to the world or don't.
- Toots with > 5 hashtags and/or synonymous hashtags – It makes discovering by tags harder.

@LilahTovMoon How do you come to the conclusion that an asterisk is wrong? Wikipedia mentions US patent 3920926 patents.google.com/patent/US39 which says “sextile or asterisk”. There's a PBX Software called “Asterisk” named after the key. And ITU rec E.161 itu.int/rec/T-REC-E.161 explicitly calls Figure 2/E.161 a “Star” (which is another name for Asterisk according wo Wikipedia) and doesn't mention the words Asterisk or Sextile.
