Lol… I had forgotten that the full quote of “Vox Populist, Vox dei” is Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, vox populi, vox dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit.”
it translates to:
"Do not listen to those who say the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the tumult of the crowd is always close to madness."
(Thanks to @goldengateblond@twitter for the reminder)
Update on the search for a good Masto client - Metatext (iOS) has changed a *lot* in just over a week. If you tried it back when Lemon Tusk took over the birdsite and gave up, it’s worth another look.
I repeat: Google AMP can Get In The Sea. It’s the wrong solution to every problem it claims to solve.

Ugh. Google AMP is now “improving the performance of mobile content and advertising” by jamming ads *into* photos.
