#mefi — Public Fediverse posts

In the past, I've posted scores of short story recommendations to #MetaFilter. As part of the current fundraiser, I'm interested in making further front page posts recommending short #scifi and #fantasy stories you can read for free online!

For the rest of August: MeMail me to tell me you've contributed USD $150 to #MeFi, and I'll make a post. $225 if you want to specify some kind of theme.

@mostlymartha an instance is a server. Someone explained it as being like email-there’s gmail and yahoo and hotmail, and they all communicate with each other.
The way this place works is, you do an introductory toot and put hashtags on everything. Then everyone retoots it. And everyone who sees it follows you and retoots it. There is no algorithm here, so no one will see anything unless it’s retooted or they search on a hashtag.
