mastodon
If you're on the mastodon.social server you may have posts missing from your timeline. This is apparently due to technical problems on mastodon.social:
https://status.mastodon.social/cm6i55duu000ijwc2g6f4t3kx
If this is happening to you it's not your fault, it's your server that is currently a bit broken.
Other Mastodon servers are unaffected by this and should be working normally.

3️⃣66.1% indicate their professional Mastodon use would increase if their organizations were present on Mastodon
Stay tuned for more results.
Ce petit bout d'interface est vraiment génial sur Phanpy. 
En gros, il apparaît sur tous les pouets où l'auteur ou l'autrice a répondu directement à son propre pouet, ou est la réponse à un de ses propres pouets, créant de facto un thread/fil.
Comme ça, on comprend tout de suite que soit il faut « ouvrir » le pouet pour voir la suite, soit qu'on peut comprendre le contexte avec ce qui a été publié avant.
J'aimerais vraiment voir apparaitre ça sur toutes les interfaces

There are many post visibility settings on Mastodon:
🌎 Public - Everyone can see it
🌘 Unlisted/Quiet Public - Everyone can see it but it won't show up in search results or trends
🔒 Followers Only - Only your followers can see it
@ Mentions/Specific People - Only people you mention can see it, often used for DMs
WARNING: If you mention someone's account (if you @ them), they will be able to see that post on ALL visibilities.

So about every other Home feed post is about #Bluesky which I have filtered out
"Show anyway"
OK, show me
Damn, man, if y'all are so hot for Bluesky why are you wasting your time here on #Mastodon?
Trying to pull people along with you to validate your own choice?
One thing about Bluesky that I've never understood is that it's only a web site
Given a web browser and a valid URL and you can go poke around to your heart's content and see if you can find what it is that's missing in your life
I spent about 30 minutes yesterday doing exactly this and came up empty
OK: you can't reply or 'like' or whatever they call it over there, but wander around and see if you can find what you're lacking in your life
bear with me for a second:
a million reasons, but a big reason the #democrats lost is because the center of gravity for #media has moved to #socialmedia
where the #trolls and #disinfo play. enough dum dums bought the lies
the democrats didn't play that game. because what game can they play in that shit?
it's literally owned by #plutocrats and #fascists
so... how do we fight?
we need our own
and what do we have
#mastodon and the #fediverse
we need to grow like a fucking weed
am i wrong?
By request, I've tried to do a guide for organisations that are interested in joining Mastodon and the Fediverse:

Any kind of feedback would be appreciated, especially if you are running an organisation's account.

Hey, if you haven’t yet, be sure to try the Elk client for Mastodon. It’s one of the best around!

@trunksapp My contribution to #GlobalSwitchDay? I've just finished the translation to Dutch of the magnificent #trunks for #Mastodon app 😇. So glad to reach the 100% mark this Sunday evening!
▶️ Become a #translator as well! Check out https://crowdin.com/project/trunkssocial. The #Crowdin interface is user-friendly and offers translation suggestions to speed up the process. I spread the translation over multiple weeks. You could also look for a partner in crime 😉.
Happy tooting!
#DhaagaUpdates v0.15.0 will be out tonight 🎉
I am excited to introduce Collections™!
Bookmark implementation in #mastodon is pretty weak.
And #bluesky does not even have bookmarks yet!
Also, unlike #misskey, there is no way to organise them into folders, for example.
With this update, #DhaagaApp will let you create bookmarks and organise them into collections for ANY #fediverse software.
The saved posts can be viewed anytime, offline from your device.
See you next release,
Deb

One of the nicest things about individual Mastodon servers is they have custom emoji 
These emoji are visible to other servers so everyone can see them, but only people on a particular server can post them.
You can access custom emoji by clicking the 🙂 smiley button within the app or web interface. (On mobile apps, the non-custom emoji are accessed by clicking the other smiley button on your phone's keyboard.)
More info at:

A friendly reminder that #Mastodon is a free open source social network without ads and tracking!

in #Mastodon #Akkoma #Pleroma #GotoSocial you can hide your follower and following lists from public view
Currently, a display and handle "regex blocklist" feature is far more urgent than the quote post feature for the #Mastodon software—and other #Fediverse software too.
We seriously need to be able to prevent anyone from using software names—like Mastodon®—anywhere in their handle and display name, just like how we do it in the gaming industry since MUD/MUSH era in the 90s.
Any tips for a center-left German into politics, tech, photography & music on how to get started here and find their crowd? #mastodon #gettingstarted #help
