    @paco A is correct, apparently UNLESS you have one or more cats, who also find A to be more convenient for unwinding toilet roll, so you should* choose B

    * where should is to be understood as in rfc 2119

      @paco depends on whether or not you have cats. Closest to the person is perfect for cat shenanigans. Well…. actually, it doesn’t matter which way if your cat is into that kind of shenanigans.

          I do have a cat. But the one time he did this was when the toilet roll was out on a table. He hasn’t done that to a roll in the bathroom despite us hanging consistently in the most shenanigans-friendly way. 😀

            @djm62 @paco 🤣😹 luckily we haven’t had personal experience with such shenanigans with either of our two cats, but oops, I’ve probably jinxed that situation now. 😺

              @paco According to the toilet paper roll holder patent, and also every sane person, A is correct.

                    @revk What a shocking omission from the patent. I’m going to patent the same thing with the same image just flipped left to right. When they challenge my patent I will point out that these are completely different ideas. Mine is literally 180° opposite. And I’ll try to make it so that toilet paper made for one won’t work on the other. 😀

                      We had a kitten who liked to unspin the roll, and we had a puppy who wouldn't tamper with the roll, but once unspooled he'd pull it all through the house.
                      Teamwork.

                        I'm not sure if it's helpful, but it will lead to users of theforkiverse.com not seeing themselves as part of the #Fediverse, but rather as an independent network. The first problems have already been encountered by Mastodon users. Suddenly, there is a hashtag CatsofForkiverse next to a cat picture with the hashtag CatsofMastodon, with no mention of a Fediverse.
                        The point is to integrate and involve the people who are joining the Fediverse with the new instance, not the Forkiverse (!). I am not doing that with this separation.

                          @visionaire It’s all opinion, not fact, but I think it’s different. Lots of instances have a distinct culture AND they federate. Infosec.exchange where I am, mastodon.art, beige.party.

                          When I hear what they say about “forkiverse” (particularly in the podcast episode from its creators) their entire point is federating with the wider fediverse. The creators even understand the difference between mastodon the software and fediverse the network of compatible systems.

                          We can debate their intentions and likely outcomes, but only time will tell.

                              "Three podcasters who’ve spent years critiquing social media companies try to build their own small alternative social media."

                              LOL OK, that's *one* incredibly disingenuous way to say "we stood up a Mastodon server." SMH.

                              @rossgrady it's painful to listen to, but getting more mainstream is good.

                                  @paco I find closest-to-the-wall makes it hard to rip off sections one-handed, but I think the presence of housecats or kids makes it excusable.

                                    I assume that people spending time arguing about this probably aren't spending enough time on wiping.
