Is it possible to add CWs to boosted posts?

I really, really do want to enjoy German railway services. But having the train stop and evacuate, then being left stranded in some province w/ 600 other people, with no way out other than an overcrowded regular service bus (that runs twice per hour) feels like bullshit.

They specifically sent taxis to recover their personnel.

I arrived 2h30 mins late on a 2h00 ride, incl a 40 minute ride standing in a claustrophobically-full bus.

Last but not least, they're claming force majeure, as someone had an accident down the railway, so I'm paying full price for my experience.

I'm absolutely fine with the risks involved in DB travelling, but leaving us stranded in nowhere, raising a middle finger and THEN cashing in full? Fuck no. At least rent a fucking bus and recover your passengers that can't get away from the station you left them at.

Renting cars is looking very attractive again.

Wondering how active everyone here actually is, because it does feel like only 10 or so followers out of 100+ are still active at all.

How often do you read your feed?

That's a first — I think the hardware of my four year old MSI 27" screen is giving up. It's been sitting on a desk for most of its life and today from one moment to the next it just.. had extra lines on it.

Tried different frame rates, inputs and sources. Does any of you with an affinity for hardware know if this is fixable, or straight to the bin? (Also, what actually happened there? :D)

Bonus: The second line from the top is white with grey dots flickering/moving inside

eBay has plenty of similar screens with different defects, so if it's a simple replacement/soldering job, that might even be possible

Honestly: Out of all the socials, Mastodon feels the most enjoyable and long-term stable. It's a shame there's so little traffic here!

Probably a question rooted in misunderstanding, but how come I'm only seeing very few boosts/favs/replies on posts that habe a lot of activity when viewed on their original instance? Instance blocking by meow.social?
