"Why didn't I figure this out years ago department" stuff...

I tried setting some of my favorite accounts to "receive all notifications" and that was a big mistake! So, I've been putting those accounts into an A-List list so hopefully I won't miss any posts from my favs (without blowing my notifications up).

New guide on our blog covering top features in Microsoft Word for effective document creation (Styles, Track Changes, etc.). Hope it's helpful! What's your favourite 'hidden' Word feature? 🤔 Read the post: https://itbyjim.co.uk/top-features-of-microsoft-word-for-effective-document-creation/ #MicrosoftWord #WordTips #Productivity #MastoTips #TechTips #OfficeSoftware

Overwhelmed with the #doomposting? (Yes, even Doomsday over here needs a break). Take a walk in nature (ideal), but if you're stuck indoors, create a list of artists, photographers, cartoonists, etc. Anything that make you smile! And then visit your list when you need a break!

With Mastodon, there is a lot of control in your hands about the content you want to (or don't want to) see.

You can use the Filters feature to hide certain keywords or topics that you do not want to see.

Reposting a critical tip regarding #searchability from @[email protected] - particularly aimed at MSM outlets that simply tag their articles with #press.

https://mstdn.social/@feditips/108380464458646658

"Do you want your posts to be seen by as many people as possible on here?"

If so, it's important to use hashtags. Hashtag searches are the main way people find posts on the Fediverse. If a post doesn't have hashtags, people probably won't see it in search results.

Don't worry about using too many tags! As long as they are relevant, it is fine to have lots of tags. Many put a long list of them at the end of the post.

Also, if you are using tags, it's important to set the post's visibility to "Public" so that the post appears in search results.

On Mastodon you can set a post's visibility by clicking the visibility icon at the bottom of the post when you're writing it (the icon looks like a globe 🌐 , lock 🔒 or @ sign).

You can set your default post visibility by logging in through the website and going to Preferences > Other > Posting Privacy, select the default you want and click "Save Changes".

Merci pour ton questionnement, partagé de mon côté 🙂
Oui la masse critique est là !
Je me prononcerai pas sur le point #3 que je ne maîtrise pas
Pour le #1 : c'est la durabilité de l'activité qui va convaincre les medias de s'investir (effet boule de neige, comme pour les utilisateurs)
Pour le #2 : 10000% important

#FediTips #MastoTips #Video #VideoCompression

🎬 I know a lot of people struggle with posting videos on Mastodon as the file limits can be very strict, so here's my guide:

🗑️ 1. There's a million tutorials about video compression, but unless you're interested in the technical details, you can ignore them.

📥 2. Go and download Handbrake, a free open source video converter that works on Linux, Win and Mac: https://handbrake.fr/

📂 3. Open it and drop your video file in.

🎛️ 4. Ignore all the complicated settings, instead find the preset button/dropdown.

🎞️ 5. Select a preset: I recommend 'very fast 720p' to make your vid even smaller. It'll still look good, I promise!

📽️ 6. Set a file name and click "Start". Wait for the bar to finish and then your new video is ready to be posted!

🗜️ About 1min of video should be around 6mb this way, which is smaller than most animated gifs!

🔃 If this post helped you, please boost!
Help your instances by keeping their hosted media small!

Quand on n'a pas ajouté de la description textuelle des images d'un pouet (notamment utile pour les malvoyant·e·s), on peut toujours le faire à posteriori en utilisant « Éditer » pour le modifier sans le supprimer (et garder les réponses/boosts qui vont avec), mais il faut quand même supprimer et renvoyer les images en question.

What’s important, here, is to interact in real conversations and... who cares about “points” received from people that don’t interact?

...but are you still tangled in a #Twitter mindset?

Are you still searching for the #TrendingTopics that will impose to everyone today’s obligatory #conversation topic?

Are you searching for “people to follow” instead of “people to interact with”?

Are you still planning time-wasting things like hashtag wars instead of doing something real?

Are you searching for emotional and social gratification in the number of retweets you receive?

Are you still judging a post by the number of likes that it received?

Are you still writing #cool posts to obtain likes insted of writing interesting things that stimulate discussion and interaction?

If so, please pay attention: there is still much Twitter inside you! And it takes some time to heal... 😉

Okay here's a thing I need explained to me; You can verify yourself by putting an element on your website which corresponds with something on your masto profile.

What is to stop say, a bad actor, from using wix or github pages or something to verify themselves, appear legitimate, and only be found out by the people who bother to check the link? Keep in mind I don't think I've seen any verified profiles on here.

Are you having trouble using Mastodon or PixelFed accounts on the official Mastodon app?

- You can use the official app for accounts on any Mastodon or PixelFed server, including servers not on the app's own list. When you're signing in, enter your server name and it will work (even if it's not on the list). Just type the server's name in full, and then your password in the password section.

- You can sign in with multiple accounts at once on the official app by pressing the account icon in the bottom right corner until it says "Add account". You can use the same menu to switch between accounts.

- To sign out of an account in the official app, select the account you want to sign out of, then go to the ⚙️ Settings menu, scroll down to the "Spicy Zone" and select "Sign out".

@jshmlr #scanlines #peertube instance is https://videos.scanlines.xyz

it strictly focuses on audio/video art DIY projects and it only federates with similarly-themed instances, like https://archive.vidicon.org
https://algorithmic.tv
https://sleepy.tube

my personal advice about instances is just disregard the "Discover", "Trending", or "Local videos" links, and just subscribe to individual interesting channels (here's how: https://scanlines.xyz/t/misc-things-about-peertube-and-federation-video-art-cooperative-sites-archives-streaming/469/25)

and here's a search engine for Peertube videos:

Do you wish there was a way to type your favourite emoji without stopping to use the picker?

✅ In Mastodon, you can choose an emoji directly by typing : (colon) and then a keyword or name of the emoji you want.

For example, :sun will bring up all the emoji containing the word "sun". Choose the one you want with the arrow keys, then press enter.
