I promise not to "quote toot" like this often but my reaction to @shengokai 's thread is to jump around and loudly yell THIS THIS THIS! zirk.us/@shengokai/10936234190

folks who are deeply skeptical and havenโ€™t yet experienced any joys or reassurances on the fediverse yet are experiencing a lot of painful grief right now and will struggle to adapt to this new world so we should try to be welcoming and helpful when they arrive

@RipUpTheEnding Yep. You have to set everything up the way you want on desktop and use the website on a browser tbh. I have fedilab for android and tbh, I prefer using Chrome. ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ But... Once things are set up, it's really powerful. I have a list of the main instance feeds. A list of my fandom keywords. I just need to set up more of those.

Hello new people! ๐Ÿ‘‹

If you need help getting started on here, have a look at:

That can't do the adding instance and hashtags to on mobile is one of the biggest mistakes is making currently. This would make a huge difference for the new folks. I rarely have access to Mastodon on the desktop.

Exclusive: Ex-Russian spy flees to the #NATO country that captured him, delivering another embarrassing blow to #Moscow

"Artem Zinchenko isnโ€™t just any spy. He was the first agent of Russiaโ€™s military intelligence arrested by #Estonia, in 2017, then traded back to Moscow a year later for an Estonian citizen in Russian custody. Zinchenko has now sought asylum from the very NATO country that unmasked and imprisoned him for spying against it."

If you just like something, star it to let the poster know you appreciated it.

If you REALLY like something and want others to see it, BOOST!

@brewcitychaser@ohai.social She is a good baby!

BTW, I think you might be surprised how much more engagement your stuff gets here (videos, photos) when you post them and you use hashtags.

RT @ArmsControlWonk@twitter.com

Time to let the cat out of the bag! @tylerni7@twitter.com and @michaelnute@twitter.com have been writing code to detect missile launches like tonight's North Korean ICBM test in GPS data. Missiles make ionospheric disturbances that GPS records. The yellow ripple is the ionospheric disturbance.

New folks, just remember that boosts are what people see not stars. There's no algorithm. If you like something BOOST IT! :boost: :_stars:
