new as of this update: in the web ui if you go to App settings -> General -> Layout options on a computer you can change it to mobile view which will now be the enhanced 3-column layout ported from upstream :)
we're back! there were some issues starting redis for a little while there, because i had just disabled ipv6 (it was misbehaving badly). this caused redis to be unable to start as it was trying to bind to an ipv6 loopback address. all fixed now!

@jamey also, 1 calorie is defined as the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water through 1 °C -- so because ice cream is colder than your body, it's negative calories

@jamey also if the ice cream is green, it counts as a serving of vegetables

So if I use gummy vitamins as an ice cream topping, that makes it healthy, right? I'm pretty sure that's how nutrition works

I just thought I'd draw attention to the latest #tootcat upgrade, which now lets you edit the names of your Lists(!) -- as implemented by our very own @kity (ash) in less than a day and now part of the GlitchSoc distro.
I mean, like, wow -- how long has it been since Lists were introduced, and they couldn't be renamed until now? dafuq.
Anyway, I sent ash a tip for adding that leetle oversight; please feel free to contribute to ash's future work on this and other projects (see @kity for links).
actually gonna reboot real quick while we're at it
hi holy hell we're back!!!! that was much smoother than expected, direct all issues to me at @kity thanks!!
