So maybe the quote isn't talking about the tools if the whole enterprise, but the master's *personal* tools; the ones he keeps neatly in a workshop in his home. Maybe these tools would not dismantle a house. Why not, though?

As so often, @evan, this historical quote taken out of its historical context does not completely encapsulate the meaning.
A more complete quotation of Audre Lorde's words:
“For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change.”

But maybe there's something in here about a rich and dominant man that might make his tools inappropriate for house-dismantling.
Let's consider a man who owns an estate, maybe a farm or ranch or something. If everything there belongs to him, does that include all the tools, too?
On a big enough property, there'd have to be tools for demolition too, right? Sledgehammers and axes and various explosives or whatever?

It'd make more sense if the person's profession was one that used vastly different tools than would be required by the dismantling process. "The printmaker's tools will never dismantle the printmaker's boat." "The stonemason's tools will never dismantle the stonemason's newsletter."

There is no roadmap. I don't want to make this "tiny"ap very big by adding too many features.
But There is also no plan to quit.
I use tinyap for everyday use as a main social media, and please let me know if you have any feature requests or issues!

Reminded of the Audrey Lord quote by @majorlinux: "For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house."
This is a weird quote because it doesn't really follow within the logic of the metaphor. Why wouldn't his tools dismantle his house?

@andypiper oh no! Well, one trick is to stick some info in the metadata section.

@evan
is the nodeinfo repo still maintained? That has never been clear to me. I have unmerged PRs there from 2+ years ago. YMMV!

I've worked in tech for over 20 years, and I've never been threatened for not using particular tools until this year. I think that says a lot about where we are.

@dansup oh that's good at least. No need to do special work; it should smooth out eventually. I started a discussion on the nodeinfo repo about how to indicate bot or group actors.

@evan Yeah that is true, the reason why tags.pub isn't appearing is because it triggered our stats filter (used to detect and auto remove instances with sudden large increases in stats), and a few other small things, I'm working on it now!

@evan Polls that would summon the inquisition in another time.

Saw that @adele was offering space and a person can use #publii ... I downloaded that once, but never did anything with it. May investigate it again ...
