Inzwischen gibt es so viele Medienseiten auf Mastodon, dass sie mir die Timeline verstopfen und ich private Postings nicht mehr finde.
Die Listen schaffen Abhilfe: kennt ihr schon diesen praktischen #MastodonTip?

After a couple of weeks I logged in into #Twitter / X ... Yeah - #mastodon is really my new home.
No Algorithm madness, no engagement farming, really the most *social* network since IRC

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.

Sprzedany i to przez #Mastodon @…! Siła Mastodona! 💪

Installed Shinigami Eyes today.
Didn't know it also worked for #Mastodon
I see some peeps on #mastodaoine that are green 😃

Twitter=CNN
Threads=MTV/BET
Mastodon=CSPAN
Bluesky=VH1
#socialmedia #mastodon #twitter

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.

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?

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?

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?

Do we have #sockpuppets on #Mastodon? Because sometimes I think I smell the smell of something that smells smelly, like...socks

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...

Hallo #Fediversum, ich bräuchte in #Mastodon bitte noch eine Funktion um Lesezeichen zu kategorisieren - Ordner, Tags oder sowas. Damit ich die ganzen Podcasts und Dokus schnell wiederfinde. Danke im Voraus! #Fediverse

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.

May I just say that not being able to set your own fucking character limit on your own fucking Mastodon instance without having to fucking fork fucking Mastodon is a fucking pain in the fucking arse.

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.

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.

Kann man mit #Mastodon eigentlich einen Unterthread ausblenden muten? Also bspw wenn ein Diskussionsstrang entgleist ist, aber man die Beteiligten nicht gleich muten will, aber sie das @ vom Originalpost immer mitschleppen bei ihrer 2-Personendiskussion ?

This is a very nice feature, #mastodon. Very nice indeed...

Yikes....I Issued a Fediblock recommendation for obvious spam activity from a single user instance that follows 48k accounts after joining 3 days ago.
Only a very small number of instances have actually blocked the account so you might wanna do it yourself as a user-level block.

Recently I told my wife about the folks you here, the adventures we share and where some of you come from.
She listened interested and finally said: "it's so astonishing, great, .. that your hobby and technology connects you with people all over the world and you're befriended with them"
Yeah indeed! And that's why I'm here for!

I kinda wish I didn't have to click the Translate button on Mastodon.
There should be an option to translate everything that's not in the preferred language set in the settings.
That'd be great.

Web #mastodon is, again, doing it bs of wasting tons of gpu and cpu alledgedly decoding videos that aren't there.

What if there was a #mastodon option where anyone could signup but they start in limited mode. Maybe they would then need to be promoted or could be auto promoted after X amount of time.
Would help with fighting spam accounts.

If you want to shout into the void, please do us all a favor and go back to Twitter. If nobody ever replied to anything, I'd bet most people wouldn't be here...🤦

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

Anybody know what triggers a profile re-fetch in #mastodon ?
After an instance accessed a remote account for the first time, it fetches name, avatar, number of followers etc. When will it fetch it next to potentially update?

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

Just so you non-english folks know, if you don't correctly set your post language, I cannot effectively translate your post, making it unreadable and useless to me...just saying....

So, I've just been told that "Followers only" posts can also be scraped easily as well and that they don't necessarily just go to Followers.
Is this true? Is there any proof of this happening?
That'd be wild...
#Fediverse #Fedi #Mastodon

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?

Overall I'm really happy with my Fedi presence. I DO miss people sometimes. But that's life.😬in terms of my presence here though, I'm very pleased that I (somehow) managed to get a few hundred followers and converse with a good number of folks regularly. What else could I want? 🤷‍♂️😁
#Fedi #Fediverse #AvtivityPub #Mastodon

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.🙄
#Fediverse #Fedi #Mastodon

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....
#Fediverse #Mastodon #Fedi

After 9 months, I FINALLY follow enough people to have a "decent" Trending page with 6-7 posts!😅
It sucks that single user instances have to deal with this issue, but it's unfortunately how Mastodon decided to build the feature. It does leave me wondering though, if it could be changed to federate "Favorites" or, if it's too heavy on the servers, make it an option to turn on or off as wanted?
I don't know if it's possible, but I just know the Trending feature on single-user instances are almost completely useless most of the time.😩
