  1. Oh geesh. I've reached the 4K follower milestone! Thank you all!!!! I'm so glad I made the leap from "X" to Mastodon! This is waaaaay better! I have "pen-pals" from all over the world! And I support my instance! #MastodonRocks!

  2. Removed Gmail from my bottom the screen links on my Pixel phone.

    Facebook immediately jumps onto it's spot.

    Me : "yeah not you, Facebook" and immediately drags Tusky into its position.

  3. Einer der Dinge die mir bei Mastodon auch sehr gut gefallen ist, dass Menschen hier von ihren ganz normalen Alltagsherausforderungen erzählen.

    Vom chronisch Kranken, aus der Werkstatt, Erlebnisse mit Kunden usw

    Das fördert die Empathie ungemein.

    Wir 'wissen' zwar, dass jeder sein Päckchen zu tragen hat, Details darüber zu lesen macht aber einen riesen Unterschied.
    Danke fürs Teilen Eurer Geschichten!

  4. @Viss

    I went thru my follows to delete any brid.gy accounts - there were not any. But I did see a lot of really cool people that I follow!

  5. WELL.
    We have a newly installed @linuxmint version on an old #EndoOf10 laptop.

    All user files have been moved across (will require some organisation still, and that alone will be a shock to a GenZ used to just dumping stuff on the cloud - honestly the desktop looked like my parents... 😱 ).

    Most important programs are there (I had to explain difference between program and app along the way too).

    And overall it's been a pretty positive learning experience for both of us. I have had to compromise on a few things and teenager has a few programs installed that I'd rather not - but let's see this as a gateway out of #BigTech if at all possible...

    There will be a few more follow up points I suspect but thanks all for your friendly encouragement and helpful hints so far

  6. I love the Fediverse!

    I told a contact living in Finland via direct message that I was trying to buy a gift for my brother living in that country and there seemed no easy way to do that from Canada. This great girl found a store selling the product in the town my brother lives in, sent me the address and url of the store, the manager's name and email address and even gave advice on how to word my email to avoid my contact email going into their spam.
    I know she is a very busy person with a lot of cares and responsibilities in her personal life, so her time is precious. She nonetheless told me to tell her if I had any trouble, saying she would phone the store for me and talk to them in Finnish! I won't mention her here so she doesn't get inundated with help requests. But she knows who she is.
    Thank you, dear Fediverse friend.

  8. It's interesting that the Mastodon translation feature actually can make you friends/followers.

    Just noticed somebody who mainly speaks in another language is following me.

    I guess that I at one point used the translation feature and then replied.

    From the interaction this person liked me and followed or liked something and followed...

    The software is great...it's just that we're facing a horde of trolls

    culprit = unknown?

  11. There are some social platforms oligarch money can buy. For everyone else, there’s Mastodon.

  12. Elon likes his money
    He has a lot they say
    Spends his days counting
    In a Tesla on the motorway

    And Jesus, he wants to go to Mars
    Leave humanity behind
    Take a starship and go sailing
    While Xitter slowly dies

    He was born a robber baron spawn on a blighted day
    When the New York Times said, "God is dead
    And the war's begun"
    Oh, Alvin Toffler has a son today

  13. An artist friend on mine on Insta is now the latest victim of a scammer pretending to be her. All of her close artist circle filed a report, and Insta said Nope, no biggie, bye! Never liked IG, and now I'm seriously considering leaving. Mastodon, you are the best. Don't ever change. #Mastodonrocks #MastoArt

  14. @Mikal I had the pleasure of meeting @Rusty_invader in person, because he lives near my in-laws, is a #RetroComputing and #RetroGaming geek, and I had an old Atari ST 500 to give away to a loving home. #MastodonRocks

  17. I don't think I've said recently how much I love the #Fediverse - on no other platform do I scroll through one thing after another I enjoy. Not just the lack of ads but the lack of trying to force me to find content other than what I followed.

    It's not even down to following people. Follow hashtags for subjects you want to see more of and bam. #FindYourBliss #MastodonRocks
