I guess I'll have a look into the #Mastodon API. I wonder if I want to auto-mute all accounts in my timeline with >1000 posts and <10 followers 🤔
Or has someone done that already?

That was a first, today I met someone who said: “I know you from #Mastodon“

I think transition from Twitter is now complete

Something the web interface in #Mastodon doesn't have but should is information about who posted something with a filtered expression in it.
I sometimes click on them just because I'm curious about who posted it, which kind of defeats the purpose of filtering in the first place.

New on m.s and coming in #mastodon 4.3
You can now filter notifications from people that you don't follow, people not following you, new accounts or unsolicited private messages.
Pretty good change.

Twitter=CNN

What would it take for #Mastodon to become that political organizing app instead of Twitter or Threads? Isn’t it a much more logical place?
Anybody trying to make it so? Any reasons that speak against?

Despite Meta’s promise to crack down on political content in the app, Taiwanese activists are using it to organize.

Noterar att X blivit förvillande likt Bluesky på desktop.
Samtidigt har Jack Dorsey hoppat av Blueskys styrelse och – att döma av rapporter i branschmedia – börjat närma sig Musk igen.
Stabilt det där med miljardärer som garanter för socialamedie-plattformar. Eller hur?

Gotta love when someone uses the mastodon or Fediverse hashtags to show their ass, dogs, cats, flowers, etc or even say they haven't seen spam. All adding to the actual spam on those hashtags, making them unusable.
Don't you LOVE that, Fedi?

Do we have #sockpuppets on #Mastodon? Because sometimes I think I smell the smell of something that smells smelly, like...socks
Sockpuppets? In MY /r/Scotland? It's more likely than you think. : r/Scotland

Wenn das milliardste #emoji hinzugefügt wird, raucht #mastodon ab.

PS. What would REALLY help this is a feature similar to Misskey's antennas. It allows you to add AND exclude hashtags/words from a list. So I could start excluding hashtags that people use to abuse these other tags...

Are there any videos, images available that explain Mastodon easily?
I just see some ppl being interested but I can't throw just plain text to them - and I don't think it scales if I do it all individually.

Do you want to know what I've just discovered? Instead of preselecting photos in Thunar, then clicking "attach" in two browser windows, finding the same images again in chooser dialog, I can just drag-and-drop them from Thunar into the browser.

Wiecie, co właśnie odkryłem? Zamiast przeglądać wstępnie zdjęcia w Thunarze, a następnie w dwóch okienkach przeglądarki po kolei klikać "dodaj zdjęcia…" i odszukiwać powtórnie te same pliki w dialogu, mogę po prostu przeciągnąć go z Thunara w okno przeglądarki!

Seit 10 Monaten sinkt die Anzahl der monatlich aktiven #Mastodon-Nutzer. Ich war hoffnungsfroh, dass wir es schaffen, das erste unkommerzielle Social Network zu etablieren. Stattdessen scheint es nun wieder in der Bedeutungslosigkeit zu versinken.

Again, for the naysayers
My Twitter feed, politically, is nearly active and on the correct side of history as my feed here on Mastodon
threads is the only one that's mostly on some bs

RE: #Fediverse #Fedi #Mastodon

Is there a list somewhere of all the ":smileys:" available through this syntax on #Mastodon?

Fediverse ≠ Signal.
This is Social Media.
If your posts are set to public, you should have exactly 0% sense of privacy here.
There's 20,000 instances with more every single day that could be doing anything they want with your posts.
Furthermore, if you're on Mastodon, your account has an RSS feed attached that someone could be reading, completely without your knowledge.
Fediverse isn't some sort of safe haven for privacy. Not sure where that idea came from, but it's completely false.
#Fediverse #Fedi #Mastodon

If you use a "woman-facepalming" or "man-facepalming" #emoji in #Mastodon web interface, and try to delete it via backspace, it will turn into a "person facepalming" (which for some reason is missing on both of my instances).
This is because both these emojis are a ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequences:
🤦‍♀️ is actually 🤦 (U 1F926) ZWJ (U 200D) ♀️ (U 2640 U FE0F).
🤦‍♂️ is actually 🤦 (U 1F926) ZWJ (U 200D) ♂️ (U 2642 U FE0F).
Note that U 2640 is plain ♀ ("Female Sign"), while U 2642 is plain ♂ ("Male Sign"). U FE0F is "Variation Selector-16" which turns a "plain" #Unicode character into "emoji presentation" (though apparently Mastodon implicitly turns the former into the latter after publishing).
You can also combine them with skin tone modifiers. Curious enough, these don't use ZWJ (I guess because they're modifiers by design):
🤦🏿 is 🤦 (U 1F926) 🏿 (U 1F3FF, "Modifier Fitzpatrick Type-6")

If #mastodon had plugins I would totally make one with hundred of animations when you like or boost a post.

That moment when you have to block a mutual follow because they're spamming hashtags and engagement baiting...🤦‍♂️
If I see you do this and you're in my circle, I'll most definitely block you when I notice. People that browse hashtags don't deserve to be spammed with irrelevant posts.🙄

The little nuances of Fedi are still sometimes confusing to me, even though I've been here for almost a year, in realtime cause I have insomnia😬.
For example, I have an alt on mastodon.social for browsing certain stuff but when I login, some replies I've made from my main (this account) to others, don't show up on the home timeline. I have to go into the thread to see them...🤔and no, they're not "unlisted".
Strange....

Holy crapoli!
I just realized I crossed the 900 followers mark.
That's insane. That's like 300x more people than I have around me IRL!
Thank you to every one of you who decided to interact with me over the past year. I'm coming on my Fediversary at the end of the month and it's been such a wild ride so far.
There's lots of ups and downs, ins and outs, and little nuances about Fedi, but overall, having my own little corner of the internet where nobody can tell me who I can or can't interact with, has been fantastic!
I love you all. May you all be as federated as you wish!

Anything older than that is just an inaccurate view of the Fediverse at this point, I think.
