    this is my #feditips for new people's #intro into #fediverse

    i'm mostly on #android and i'd recommend people to get the yuito app, it has reasonably good amount of customizable options that can match the look and feel of certain other platform

    there is probably a similar app on iOS that keeps things simple and familiar

  4. I have wondered which posts I see when I search a hashtag (or if it's in a column, or I follow it...). This flowchart (axbom.com/mastodon-tips/#flowc) by @axbom seems to say that the search scope is the local instance + federated timeline. Posts get to the federated timeline if someone on my instance follows the tooter or boosted or replied to the toot; or if the instance uses relays to grab public feeds of other instances then it's all those toots too. :ggbridge:

  5. 🤯 If you are a long-time user of Microsoft Forms, you have likely run into the annoyance of ending up with a new spreadsheet every time you go to download a copy of your Forms response data.

    If you are tired of juggling multiple spreadsheets of survey data, then you are going to love that Microsoft Forms just rolled out an update to make your life easier! Say goodbye to manual updates, outdated data, and confusing tables. ✨

    You can now have your data up to date and in sync automatically and can extract valuable insights from your data in just a couple of clicks. Check out how in my latest short video: buff.ly/3uUSvCY

  6. If you've ever tried to install #software or use any #Linux distro you may have seen terms like "GPL License" or the "GNU General Public License"

    These are the licenses needed to legally operate the software or distro.

    Even
    #mastodon requires the GNU Affero General Public License before safe and legal operation. You can learn more about acquiring said licenses at https://www.gnu.org/licenses/

    Remember to always have a certified license before operating sophisticated software.

  7. #newbie question - if I fail to put the whole text of a poem in the #alttext of an image, is there a way to edit it, or do I have to delete the image and re-type the alt-text to include the words of the poem? #newbiequestion #Feditips

  8. @Raskolnikow Wejdź w „Kanały na żywo”. Będziesz miał do wyboru:
    - Ten serwer - gdzie indziej zwany jeszcze „Lokalne” - to, co piszą na 101010.pl
    - Inne serwery - to, co ludzie piszą na innych serwerach. Jeżeli nie filtrujesz według języka, to śmietnik
    - Wszystko - gdzie indziej zwane jeszcze „Globalne” - połączenie dwóch powyższych w jednej osi

  9. Here's how to check whether your server federates with Threads:

    Search for the address @[email protected] on your server. If the account shows up in the search results, your server federates with Threads.

    If you want to switch to a nice well-run server which blocks Threads, here's a curated list:

    If you need help moving your account to another server, here are step-by-step instructions:

  10. #FediTips If you're trying to escape #TwitterDrama and focus your feed on new friends and the cool stuff they're doing here ... a screenshot of my "Birdsite Mess" filter 🎉

    Notably, I'm not entirely hiding mentions, just putting it behind a warning because I _am_ a rather curious individual :P But if it was consuming my feed or my headspace too much, I'd go in there and change that setting so it's removed. I'm also not applying this filter to conversations, notifications, and profiles.

  11. Command line fans!

    You can post to your @writefreely blog on the Fediverse through the official Write Freely command line app:

    github.com/writeas/writeas-cli

    It's available for Linux, Mac and Windows.

    @gorskon is the go-to guy for #antiantivax #snark and uses #MacIntosh so I will ping him and recommend everyone follow him if you are mammalian and susceptible to #virus #infection. Oh, and did we remember to mention #vaccinessavelives ?

  13. So @woollyapp now allows you to choose which account to repost from. Useful for those like me with multiple accounts #Feditips #Woolly

  14. Brand New Video Today now that I am back at home! 🥳

    A lot of people liked the Personal Bookings page in #Microsoft365, but what if you don't have M365? What if you have Google Workspace (or even just good old Gmail)? 🗓️ Most people look to other tools, generally paid ones... But not anymore! Anyone can do this simply by setting up Appointment Schedules seamlessly within Google Calendar. ☕

    💡 Learn how to customise time slots, set availability, and prevent double bookings, all while enjoying the perks of real-time updates. ⏰ No need for external tools – it's all right there in Google Calendar!

    And you can even share this link pretty much anywhere! I like dropping it in my email signature as this makes it super easy for someone to slot in time with you without needing the constant back and forth about availability! ⭐

    I've just been hit by that same bug when uploading an audio file - ALT text was gone after upload, but stayed once editing the post.

    I'm pretty sure that didn't use to be the case in earlier versions of Mastodon 🤔

    If you reply to a post but do not want your answer broadcast into other people’s (federated/home/local) #timeline select unlisted. Your reply will still be visible to all who view the original post (if you only want the person who wrote the post to see your reply, select mentioned-only).
    Can be useful when replies are not informative out of the context of the original post (e.g. “Agree!”, “Did it work?”).

  18. #FediTips: use hashtags, lots of 'em! Mastodon doesn't support keyword search on the text of posts (not sure about other fediverse software), so tags are a great way to get more eyes on your posts. Please use CamelCase so people with screenreaders can make sense of your tags (same with compound brand names etc). For your job offer post, I'd suggest stuff like #jobs, #JobOffer, #SituationsVacant, and of course #CivicTech.

  19. @FediTips I’m absolutely convinced that #treads will be the stinking, unmoderated stream of shite that every part of Zuckerbergs empire is.
    It will give enough reasons to defederate in no time.
    Still I find those dramatic pleas to defederate more than exhausting and I can’t help myself from hearing them in #KatieBritts voice.

    Hi everyone,

    I have got a question.

    I have quite a few new followers, which I would like to vet fairly, i.e. first-in, first-vetted.

    However, of the 3 #Android apps I use # the PC browser version, none seems to be able to either (better) filter the Followers for people I do NOT yet follow back, or at least show them in reverse chronological order (which would also be important to eliminate inactive accounts, e.g. #MAGA and #Russian #SleeperCells .

    Any idea how to solve this?

  24. @feditips I wish you wouldn't create serialized hellthreads.

    Have you tried moving to another, more capable platform that can accomodate your posts? The one you're on cannot - that's for sure.

    And who cares what happens to mastotron .social anyway? It's just a deprecated, monolithic silo that has outlived its usefulness. Just block that instance and move on - away from all of that #November Rain trash left over from the initial #twitugees that returned to Twitter now that the big freakout ended up anything to nothing at all when Elon took out the trash.

  25. Question for our admins here at seocommunity.social
    Due to the outage at mas.to today, we're wondering if there could be some type of off-site notification regarding server outages, or other issues?

  26. @feditips On Android you're advised next to test what app, UI and functionality you like best.

    Test at least also Tusky, Fedilab, Yuito and Twidere.

    All have unique and/or convenient features.
    Twidere, less known, but it is nice if you can't do without the blue bird feed. It incorporates your Twitter and Mastodon feed into one home feed.
