• https://bahn.social - for #rail enthusiasts

The tools people are using to find the Mastodon/Fediverse handles of their Twitter friends.

The first two are similar, they search for Mastodon handles in profiles (with false positives). The third one lets you specify an account, encouraging repeat visits to see if friends have added theirs.

Use at own risk (data scraping possible). Revoke access after use.

Time for an #Introduction! I'm a Professor of Psychology at NDSU. I'm broadly interested in #VisionScience, esp. #FaceRecognition and #Texture. I'm very interested in #STEMEd and science outreach, esp. hands-on demos and observation.

I tend to post about cool research, Indie #Comics, #Chess, #VisualArt and #Illusions. Always happy to talk about any of these topics and excited to meet folks here!

Somebody help me make/connect a blog to my website and I’ll post the literal dozens of lists of academic job interview questions I have (because of course I took notes and made lists) and some various #AltAc advice I’ve been collecting. I’m feeling like doing light work today

Researchers in digital technologies, law, policy and society in the Fediverse/Mastodon, fill in the form to add your handle to the spreadsheet, and consult the results to see if there are people you'd like to follow! (Inspired by @konrad's effort to gather historians)

Form: https://forms.office.com/r/mPLptbqccP

Results: https://liveuclac-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/ucqnmve_ucl_ac_uk/ES11jfqXsNVNpd1roXFokNkBzRux6n2xThtV4CsgqpSj8g?e=rKrajY

(I tried to host the form on my NextCloud server in federated spirit, but forms there don't support sharing results live yet).

It's Friday and version 1.2 of "The many branches of the Fediverse" is published. Thanks everyone for your interest and engagement.

There is a changelog at the bottom of the post with more info, and you are welcome to download hi-res PNG and PDF versions of the diagram.

Do feel free to use this visual in any way you like, in your presentations, publish in your own spaces, etceteras. I'm just glad if you find it useful.

#FediTips

KEEP IN MIND! #Mastodon doesn't work like #Twitter!

Have you just made the #Twexit or the #TwitterMigration?

Favorites ⭐ - they're not "likes". They don't "elevate" posts, they just the poster know you liked their post.

Boosts 🔁 - these push someone's post into your friends feeds (and help discovery).

So if you ⭐ my posts, that's great (and I love you too)!

But if you 🔁 posts, then more people see them!

OH! - #Hashtags are how you search!

Hey all,

First time finding out about the fediverse and the multitude of associated spaces! Thanks for having me, looking forward to finding out how to use this properly, and then hopefully convince others to leave the antisocial networks when I've got a better grasp on it!
