@kaniini @rysiek Yeah, I woke up to reading this thread. I was like Nope, Fuck this shit.

I'm also very tired of the "very bad people" shit I hear anytime someone asks about pleroma, and if other people would say shit about mastodon because of incidents by masto people (inside and outside of dev), they'd get so fucking upset.

Nope, this isn't the culture I want to cultivate here.

Don't wanna talk with them? Then nope out and suspend/silence.

On Flirting.

Cute of today

I actually want to issue a warning? If you're on a server were your admin doesn't actually seem active any more, you should definitely back up your data!

As a lot of instances were spun up a year ago in the rapid growth we had then, they might be left to expire. And having a backup account just in case may be really good.

Even if they are active, it's easy to forget to renew a domain and having it get eaten by someone else.

#PSA

Omg Someone made an instance called "birb.site" :D LOVE IT!

Hey, would anyone want to make an Anniversary / Cakeday bot, that pulls from the API when your account was created and tells you happy anniversary? :)

So, I have this thing where I accept everyone with an open heart. But I guess I don't talk about it a lot?

If you're trans, autistic, enby, cis, black, white, whatever. It doesn't matter to me, as long as you're trying to provide something good to the world I will cherish you.

And if you don't feel like you can't provide something good (we all feel like this), it' sokay to feel like that. And maybe one day you can.

Either way, you're valid, and I love you <3

#mastodev or just any #dev?

The difference between what other people think #itakemypillsbecause

and what actually happens:

The bad habit of clicking through CWs since people always used it for jokes?

Yeah... Well that was just taken to a whole other level since #switter joined the party.

😅

And to everyone else! Feel free to mute people, anyone, even me, if you feel like they only provide you with noise!

You can also use filters, ofc, and filter out RT I guess. Or #ad :D etc etc

If you are an avid reader or just interested in books, I highly recommend the #amreading hashtag.

It's a remnant from the early federated protocols where we had a group for it, but I've been trying to revive it on Mastodon, and in the #fediverse again (as mastodon doesn't have groups yet).

@sydneyfalk ~ You forgot 🍍 and :pizza_pineapple:

~#gameing

~"i'm" ---GAY

~CW jokes....

We have a lot of veterans here on Mastodon, you'll get the hang of the memes eventually. A ton of us joined in April last year. It's been a crazy roller-coaster year.

We do welcome you with open arms, just take notice of your instance rules which can be found at your instance.domain/about/more usually!

If the rules do not apply to you, or you see someone else seeming unaware of them, do report! Admins and moderators are here to help!

So much to teach... Friendly reminders: Content Warnings are there for a reason, it is not to censor you, but to allow people to engage with content they are comfortable with / ready to engage it.

Typical subjects can be: Food, Politics, Sex/Lewd, Selfies/Eye contact, or animals typical of phobia.

etc etc.

Just consider it, and consider that it doesn't hurt to use it. :)

And, since you're new here: Mastodon doesn't run ads, we do not sell your data to survive.

However the project has a patreon, and liberapay (and there's bitcoin and paypal info under the Patreon!)

https://www.patreon.com/mastodon

https://liberapay.com/Mastodon/

If you can afford a little bit every month, feel free to chip in! But if you can't that's okay too. $1 goes a long way!

Also check your local server for info about their #patreon to keep the servers spinning!

#InstanceAdmin's now may be a good time to update your servers profile on https://instances.social/admin if you haven't already!

Very few servers have introductions / information!

What makes your server unique?

Hey! If you're new and reading this, remember that you don't need to bring your old behaviors from birdsite and fb to here.

We enjoy genuine conversation, because we can fit in all the words, finish our train of thoughts.

Get to know your community, and how they behave. See if you find something new and novel.

Now that we have better email notifications from Mastodon, anyone feel like start poking people who haven't been here in a while?
I believe an interesting @ could bring anyone back, and if they didn't turn those mails off, we may see them within 14 days.
Just don't do it in reply to this post, or enmasse. Make it personal and unique. Let them know you miss them.

I've been bad at doing this lately.
Hi! I have a Patreon, which I'm using along side of my Twitch channel and Liberapay, to build up support for myself.

I'm unfortunately incapable of keeping with a normal job, due to #CFS, but I'm looking at alternatives. One is to provide content online, mainly Twitch streaming right now.

If you want to make a contribution to me I appreciate any support!
