No but, disgusting things aside, I just feel things and then I have some words and pictures that come naturally, or a way of dig into something that inspired me. But I have no voice telling me the words, I translate what I feel.

Ich jage das alles durch #MastoPoet und poste es dann auf #Facebook. 😉Allerdings hat bisher nur ein #Merz-Video von "AliceFuerDeutschland" auf Insta (KP wo es her kam - ich bin da nicht) ein Qualitätsniveau gehabt, um es auch meiner Mutter zu schicken...

de la infancia tuve que salir deprisa porque
se estaba rompiendo
escapé con lo puesto
en un cayuco de tiempo hacia el futuro
y llegué hasta este aquí
que no tiene nombre
desde luego hubiera querido quedarme
a seguir siendo niña
en una tarde soleada de mayo
no tuve suerte
la historia me parió más adelante
y yo cerré los ojos por el camino -
M'he ficat #Mastopoet al servidor i ara puc generar “captures” maques dels toots.

It’s been exactly one year since I joined to the Fediverse. Let me tell you my Fediverse story. It does not fit in 500 characters, but glad I have 10000 here.
It first started with Musk tweeting about the sink. I had already given up on Twitter couple of years prior this, but that was the final straw. I saw people talking about Mastodon and I was skeptical. First I looked at mastodon.social, but quickly noticed the username rolle is taken. "That’s it, then", I angrily tweeted that I do not want to join with another nickname, I’m rolle eveywhere AND THE NICK IS TAKEN. Someone immediately pointed out that I should join another instance. An instance, what's that, huh? I then joined to a Finnish instance mastodontti.fi and quickly learned no English is allowed. A moderator pointed out that I should remove my post. Again, I angrily tweeted THAT'S IT THEN, MASTODON SUCKS, STUPID RULES. Another user politely explained that each instance has their own rules, why don't you create another account. An instance, huh?
I quickly learned about the nature of the service. I vaguely remember favoriting tootsuite/mastodon back in 2017 and thought it was just a forum-kinda software back then, for one small community. I consider myself quite witty but I didn't realize Mastodon servers are interconnected. So I joined mstdn.social. And how fun was that! I was elated! My head exploded when I realized how active it was and how amazing the community is.
But then the sudden influx of users made mstdn.social slow and unresponsive. I was thinking about building my own instance, after all I'm a server guy. During 5th of November, 2022, I got my instance up and running, #MementoMoriSocial was born: https://mementomori.social/@rolle/109293139965069879
I wanted my instance to be well federated and active from the start. I followed everyone, I still do. I use a dozen active relays. I managed to finance the instance through my company and get a bit more powerful hardware than necessary. I was alone on my instance first, then invited my wife, colleague and my company.
What I liked in the Fediverse is that I can build my own tools, I own my data and I can help making things better. I have contributed to things via form of:
- #MastodonBirdUI
- #MastoAdmin
- #FediOnFire
- an idea about #Mastopoet
- #TheMastodonList
- #MastodonLista
- and some other things that have been affecting in the general development of Mastodon.I'm very pleased I can have fun and make my own things while other people like it as well. I first thought all this would be a huge cause of mental stress but it's been on the contrary.
After a couple of months of successful running I opened my instance to the world. Now there's about 150 active users from companies to regular folk and everything has been running smoothly. I have been able to moderate because I require a reason for joining to my instance, so I really do know who the people are. I also welcome each user personally. I know my shit thoroughly and completely. This is why it has been easy to moderate. I've been able to be mostly absent during regular week days from 8am to 6pm, but still be aware of what's happening via effective monitoring, good apps and infrastructure.
For me the key thing is to optimize everything to the tooth. I also regulate my own social media usage, because I get too easily hooked. Mastodon and all its tools have taken an enormous amount of time, but it's been really fun, didn't even notice a full year has passed.
As for the Finnish community, there were thousands of active users, I kept a list. However, for some reason lately the narrative everywhere about Mastodon is that it is difficult and it has no future and people have mostly left to Bluesky. I kinda get that, because even for me starting last year was messy. But things get better, I wish more people would see that.
Mastodon is special. The Fediverse is special. Here's to another year! 🎉 :neon_skull:

An interesting thing I have observed is that despite all the fuss about "quote posts" (and if they should be natively supported or not), is that it's a thing I do frequently†. Yet, I have not had a single complaint so far. 😉
† I am working around the lack of support by linking to the posts I want to quote, adding a screenshot and adding to that all the contents via alt text. I use #MastoPoet to simplify things https://github.com/raikasdev/mastopoet
[See my last couple of posts, where I quote post myself]

50 stars 🌟 on #Mastopoet 's Github repo 🤩
Wow, did not expect Mastopoet to get this much fame at first 😄. Big thanks to @rolle :keanu_thanks:
My second most popular repo only has 17 stars ⭐, and it was also a tool for Mastodon (Mastodon4 Redirect web extension).
It was more like a quick patch until more established addons could catch up with the changes of Mastodon v4 -
:novo: Tem novidade na Bolha.one!
A partir de agora você conta com uma instância do #MastoPoet por aqui. O MastoPoet permite pegar um toot e criar uma imagem toda bonita para compartilhar.
Basta acessar o novo Bolha Print e informar o endereço do toot. Você pode personalizar como vai ficar a imagem final.

God morning @raikas
Just wanted to say that i enjoying #mastopoet.Are you in the mood for suggestions? If not, i will shut up and keep enjoying it as it is 👌 ☕
-
@raikas Glad you got that feeling with #Mastopoet ❤️ for me it's been that with open source in general but Mastodon has kinda boosted it x100 like with #MastodonBirdUI and other tools.
But not only that, the instant reactions and more natural discourse are great here. I agree everything what you said about the barriers, well put.
As I'm someone who has lived through the growth of the Intenet, I really believe we can achieve the mindset of learning things again, the new more healthy and natural way of using social media. I like this movement and I hope this change continues. I'd like to see that someday people see what nowadays Intenet is doing to us. I'm hopeful.

@gimulnautti @kissane @rolle It's more chill. Lower barrier, no need to try optimize posts for the algorithm, because there ain't one.
Over the last few days I have found the fun in Mastodon and the community when developing #Mastopoet , before that I used it more randomly, to check what rolle has posted, etc. But I haven't really touched Twitter in the last few days, just to inform people I'm now here.
Seems like I have got enough dopamine from the interactions to the #Mastopoet posts 😎. And I enjoyed a lot creating a tool for the community, and to see people actually use it.
This also is because of some other things about my projects in the past not getting finished/released properly, and this project now being finally in a good state.
I enjoy writing here a lot. Thankfully on #MementoMoriSocial we have the 10k character limit here, even though I have wrote only about 4000 characters in a single post, this far. I probably should write more. I tend to write very long posts, this also being over 1000 characters now. Whoops. Just get the inspiration and feel to write for some reason.
-
@kissane I have to say, I understand these people. I'd say that Mastodon is a hard platform for non-tech people to find their place.
Hashtags feel foreign to me, as they aren't used as often (anymore) on other platforms. With Twitter, they are kinda discouraged because of the character limit. It's sometimes hard to find the right hashtags, or even come up with right hashtags for your post.
The "build your own feed" philosophy seems still bit hard for me. The "follow everyone, unfollow if don't like afterwards" also feels bit foreign to me, as on platforms that have a recommendation algorithm, I just follow the people that I want to see the content more often. Like, that person has to prove their worth to me, before I follow them.
From 0, finding people is really, really hard, especially out of your instance. If you have to leave your own home instance to for example view older posts, it might be an other frontend, theme or software even. And interactions from other instances work, well not very greatly without any browser extensions.
I am currently at a point that I have started to get my own little bubble big enough that I have new content on the feed pretty regularly and notifications pretty often (especially now with the release of #Mastopoet). But still I miss being able to scroll away and have new suggestions provided by an algorithm from accounts I haven't seen before. I didn't use Twitter before the algorithm was introduced, so I don't know a time before that.
It would be very likely that I would not have started to use Mastodon actively if it wasn't for @rolle moving here. I actually created my first account on March 2022 on social.isekai.fi, an instance that was deleted at some point, RIP. Oh yes, instances. Didn't even cover them!
Instances allow to have a lot of variety, but for a normal user, they probably don't care that much. For them the most important things are probably:
- people there, same interests
- rules in which they feel safe
- possibly themeMoving instances is bit difficult, especially if your instance has a WebFingered domain (like social.vivaldi.net being vivaldi.net on Mastodon). Got confused when I transitioned here.
It's also difficult, because your posts don't come along with you. You leave them on the old instance. And instances get deleted sometimes (like the first instance I was on, and the popular mastodo.fi here in Finland soon). You get your followers (if you transfered in time) and your following. Otherwise you are left with a blank slate.
I mean, I like it here. #Mastodon is amazing in it's own ways. I love the API, the developer community here, but I understand it's challenges with the non-techy people. It's just too hard for them to get their feed built and get to that dopamine rush by scrolling.
Twitter and other commercial social media are designed to be addictive. To feed you dopamine. To get you to be more active and use the platform more, to get more ad revenue. Mastodon doesn't aim for that, so people get withdrawal symptoms and resort back to Twitter or other social media.
That's my personal analysis.

Things I did not know I needed until I saw it exists: #Mastopoet by @raikas for turning mastodon-posts into images sharable on other social media. Love it, makes writing all those blog posts referencing the notes I write here so much simpler. First thing I did is take my best note of the week to LinkedIn. https://mastopoet.ohjelmoi.fi
