Continued thread

A couple of bits of advice about hosting & playing #SarlaccPit & #HangTrek. Your mileage may vary.

Separate underscores with spaces in poll toots. If the answer is SPOCK, use _ _ O _ _, not __O__. The latter isn’t even clear how many spaces it is or exactly where the O is. Note that some UIs, like the #Trunks app, interpret single underscores as Markdown separators & just remove them, giving you boldface blank space. I guess just don’t use Trunks with these puzzles unless you can disable the Markdown interpolation or something. That’s the only UI I’m aware of that doesn’t display them properly. I also use the standard Mastodon for iOS app, but I almost always use the web on my laptop to post the puzzles. That is the least common denominator UI. It’s best to make sure the puzzle is clear there.

There’s also no law against separating the puzzle blanks across multiple lines for clarity. A lot of hosts use slashes (/) to separate words for additional clarity.

Re: #mastodon apps, reviewed

Most do exactly what #megalodon does and some weren't great to use. #Moshidon is exactly the same but with different colours. Keeping that.

#Fedilabs has an annoying colourful reddit-like vertical line set in front of replies, which messes with my brain; #trunks had the smallest font and that's not ideal; the official mastodon app logs out when you go back one step too many which is not ideal.

I still don't have a translate button😤

warhammer.socialErik (OLD ACCOUNT) (@erikcats@warhammer.social)#mastodon nerds As I'll be migrating to a new server with the warhammer.social server closing up shop, I'm also on the lookout for a new #Android app. Have used tusky, which was meh, am now using megalodon, which is better, but there must be something even better. Would like to have: - swipe to move to different timelines and pinned hashtags - translate button - font size management Any suggestions? Sharing is caring ofc
