Pro tip: You don’t need to use NFL (Not For Laffy) on days when I’m not live-posting trial threads.
NFL is only applicable when I need to skip your replies (they pile up enormously even on non-trial and slow days), but no need to extend that courtesy on non-proceedings days.
And thanks again for being considerate enough to use it when I need you to. It really helps.
@GottaLaff Mastodon, at via least the web UI, pre-populates the reply with an at-mention of the account being replied to. For "NFL" comments, does it help you any if we remove the at-mention of you from the reply before submitting? (And thanks for all that you do!)
Well I will now. 🤓. Along with NFL, when appropriate.
(Seriously, I'd never thought to mess with the pre-populated @'s. I still don't know how that affects toot threading, but I'll try it out in your busy mentions.)
@GottaLaff I figure I don't have to reply to everything, so on your thread days I just say it to myself. It's the reverse of "never interrupt your enemy when they're making a mistake": "Never interrupt your ally when they're knocking it our of the park."
