If you see this toot (yeah this one right here), can you boost it for me? It will help my new server federate with the wider Mastodon network. 🚀 🙏
Thanks to anyone who can do this. It is really appreciated! This server is small but will be hosting several #peace #SocialJustice and #Humanistic groups, so it is for a good cause.

My husband's funny.
We just got a puppy and he asks: "when are we putting up the Christmas tree?" @Nickrizzo
The following is a copy and paste of my #Science hashtags:

I hope some of them are helpful.
For good or bad, #Twitter was an authentic #hivemind / #crowdsource.
Someday it'll become it's own official fork. Officially 3.2.1, but new mainstream Masto features usually get adopted ad hoc.

I want to be happy here.
But my Black friends keep getting banned for doing justice work.
Or just... Existing.
At a much quieter volume than I do.
If people didn’t know me or who I’m connected to, would I be gone by now too? 😔
How do you exist in a world where your cultural norm is frowned upon?
Why do I always have to compromise with the oppression dynamic
or get removed? 😭
It’s painful.
And there’s no reason to it.
And all the “solutions” include bowing to that same dynamic.
UPDATE:
#Pleroma instance public.garden appears worthwhile.
My <a rel="me" href="https://qoto.org/@EubieDrew">Mastodon</a> account
My instance #QOTO.org has this by allowing you to follow domains (#instances) and put them in your home feed or on a list feed.
Checking out feedly right now.
If you really want to understand #Russia, #Russians, and #RussianHistory, you have to closely follow @kamilkazani (#KamilGaleev). It takes some effort, but it is worth it. I hope he realizes someday he needs to be on #MastodonSocial.

Comparing :Twitter: to :Mastodon:
Pretty much everything I valued at #Twitter has moved to some extent to #Mastodon. So why do I still visit?
I've come to realize that the main factor is simply scale. The content quality on the pachyderm 🐘 is an order of magnitude better, but also pretty thin when looking at any sufficiently narrow subject.
And, in the other direction, your audience reach is more engaged, but much smaller. (That's actually a feature, not a bug, for me.)
I do NOT feel in touch with the world when on the #Fediverse, compared to the #birdsite 🐦 . News eventually arrives, but hardly instant.
So a long way to get to asking:
Are most of the shortcomings of #distributed #socialmedia just about scale? Can we grow into a more satisfying experience.
Or perhaps, there by dragons?

My three favorite things are eating my family and not using commas.
