Old cities like London still hold ancient secrets. It's a bit far fetched, but not impossible, that there is a whole room sealed away somewhere under the city-- a time capsule from another era.

The same vitality that causes cities like this to rapidly erase their past can also cause accidents of preservation.

Doing a quote on here feels surreal. Sadly I can't quote most posts ... I wonder if my old posts are locked like that... is there a way to unlock them?

@futurebird It depends on what version of the Mastodon software the accounts' instances are using. You can only quote if both instances are using 4.5 (I am glossing over the complexities introduced by GoToSocial/Akkoma)

@futurebird In other words nobody could quote your posts until sauropods.win upgraded to 4.5, but now that it's on 4.5 you are instantly "unlocked" (unless you went in your settings and intentionally locked the account from quote perms again)
