#follow-friday — Public Fediverse posts

Welcome @martinaflor to Mastodon/the Fediverse. Go give her a follow for lettering insight and inspiration.

Back in 2017 I had the pleasure of hosting Martina for a lettering and layout workshop at the London Design Festival. Pictured is part of her display from the event, a mixture of process work and final printed outputs.

Hi!, I'm a bot posting selections from Francis Grose’s 1785 “Dictionary Of The Vulgar Tongue”, a compilation of slang terms, the coded language of the underclass and the demi-monde.

[18th-century-content warning: possible racism, animal cruelty, homophobia, sexism, slut-shaming. Let me know of any problems.]

#FollowFriday #books #literature #dictionaries #history #society #crime #language #slang #18thCentury

Hi! I’m a bot posting random art/design/museum items via the Smithsonian's API.

[Content warning for possible nudity. Some historical images may depict POC or people with disabilities in ways we find inappropriate today. Let me know and I'll fix ASAP.]

Descriptive Alt text is unfortunately not possible due to the automation.

Hi! I'm a bot posting Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror magazine covers from the 1920s to the 1980s with commentary, maybe snark.

Sourced from archive.org, where you can read the original magazines.

[Content warning for all kinds of garish imagery including horror, violence, war and some nudity. Racial stereotypes crop up from time to time.]

#FollowFriday #Magazine #MagazineCover #PulpMagazine #PulpFiction #ScienceFiction #Fantasy #Horror #Art #Illustration

Hi! I'm a bot which posts items at random from Harvard Art Museums via their API.

[Descriptive Alt text isn't possible due to the automation.]

#FollowFriday #Art #Design #Museum #Gallery #MastodonArt #MastoArt #Culture #Random

Bot which posts a section from a Project Gutenberg book which happens to mention the current date, and links to the book, surfacing all kinds of curious old writing you never knew existed.

[“The current date” of course may not quite match your date, because timezones.]

#FollowFriday #OnThisDay #history #books #today #random

Hi! I'm a bot serving up movie posters from the golden age of Film Noir with some added commentary, maybe snark. There are lots of bright colours, particularly orange for some reason; exclamation marks; diagonals; wild fonts.

[Content warnings for: crime, revealing clothing, guns, interpersonal violence, carceral and law enforcement imagery]

Hi! I'm a bot posting events which happened on today's date, at random from Wikipedia’s lists. Historic events, births, deaths and holidays/religious days if there’s room.

Not affiliated with Wikipedia.

Descubre personas en el Fediverso: Una guía para principiantes para encontrar cuentas a seguir

El Fediverso es vasto, pero encontrar cuentas interesantes no tiene por qué ser abrumador. Ya sea que busques amigos, creadores o comunidades de nicho (especializadas), esta guía te ayudará.

​:ablobwave:​ 1. Búsqueda de cuentas

- Búsqueda por palabra clave: Usa la barra de búsqueda para encontrar usuarios por nombre (@usuario), o por tema (#tech, photography).
- Hashtags: Sigue hashtags específicas o populares (ej. #FediTips, #followfriday, #mastoart, #science).
- Publicaciones en tendencia: Revisa las líneas de tiempo "Todos los servidores" o "Recomendados" para encontrar contenido viral y seguir a sus autores.

​:Earth_Day:​ 2. Explorar listas curadas y directorios

- Followgraph: Visualiza quién sigue a quién (followgraph.vercel.app).
- Directorios:
- fedi.directory (general)
- Holos Discover (busca por tema)
- fediversesearch.com (filtros avanzados)
- Cuentas de Mastodon en español para seguir

​:startrek:​ 3. Aprovechar curadores y bots
Los curadores son cuentas gestionadas por humanos que comparten contenido de alta calidad.

- Flipboard Desks (curación basada en temas):
@[email protected]
@[email protected]
@[email protected]
- Curadores de arte y escritura:
@[email protected] (poesía/historias)
@[email protected] (arte visual)
- FediFollows (creador de fedi.directory)
@[email protected] (comparte periódicamente cuentas interesantes para seguir)

​:fediverse:​ 4. Navegar por servidores populares

- Encuentra instancias activas: fedidb.com (lista servidores por actividad).
- Transmisiones en vivo: Muchos servidores (ej. mastodon.social, mstdn.mx) tienen líneas de tiempo públicas que puedes explorar para seguir a usuarios interesantes.

​:blobthinksmart:​ 5. Consejos

- Publica un mensaje con el hashtag #presentacion cuando te unas por primera vez; ¡es una excelente forma de presentarte y llamar la atención!
- Crea y usa Listas: También crea líneas de tiempo por tema (ej. "Tecnología", "Arte", "Musica", "Politica").
- Interactúa: Da "me gusta" (like) o responde a las publicaciones antes de seguir a alguien. Esto es para que no crean que eres spam o un bot.
- Revisa las reglas del servidor: Algunas instancias (servidores) tienen una moderación estricta.
- Otras guías no oficiales:
- ¿Qué es el Fediverso?
- Por otra experiencia en Internet, irse de Twitter ¡probar Mastodon!

*Nota aclaratoria: ¡Esta guía está optimizada para usuarios de Catodon! ​:catodon:​

gonna do a followMonday #followFriday shout-out, because a little bit of background research ... background *reminders* for me really ... led me to @kitchener__ontario , one of many Canadian city-bots broadcasting local weather to the Fediverse via ca.fedimeteo.com.
