@jacob FWIW qoto.org has a quote tweeting function, so it's possible to implement in Fediverse even if it's not in the default feature set.

I think their codebase is open source, not sure if it's designed to be adopted by others, though. @freemo would know.

Ok, #TwitterMigration folks, I see a lot of people asking, "How do I find people on other servers on #Mastodon or the #fediverse.

Well, here's my #Feditip of how I went from 1 person alone on robot.rodeo to having almost 2,000 interesting people to follow in about 8 months...

#Mastodon rules: you fav to remind yourself. You boost to share with others. It’s not like/retweet on Twitter. HTH.

今天出门散步了，感觉缺一只狗狗和我一起

I'm here. That in itself is an achievement.

My first toot.

I'm eligible to apply for a diversity supplement for my NIH grant (https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-21-071.html). If you fall into an underrepresented group, are interested in building computational/ML methods for genomics, and are looking for a postdoc next year, get in touch! (note: in computing, women are underrepresented!) Please boost

Greetings. Curiosity led me here, however I’d already been seeking another digital multiverse given tyranny manifest elsewhere. May this space prove that the Y chromosome paired with money won’t spill venom into every corner of the ecosySTEM.

Conference Videos: "I’m a big fan of an “exploded presentation” blog post ... where you export all the slides as individual images and you write the spoken commentary"

Have you posted a photo on Mastodon and the preview image hides something important?

If you're using the web version of Masto, you can alter the focus of the preview image when posting photos. Just click "Edit" on the image and move the circle around. When you've finished click "Apply".

(And while you're editing, do remember to add an image description for blind people!)

The two photos below are identical, but one has the focus set to the right and one to the left.
