Happy Sunday everyone! I've been spending this morning trying to decide whether I should keep my account in this instance or migrate back to mastodon.social. No matter what I decide, it should be transparent to anyone (based on what I've read). Just in case, the recipient account will be

mastodon.online/web/@astromeca

and this one will be just redirecting to the new one.

@unperson thanks for the explanation! I made a placeholder account back in .social, but since everything seems normal around here, I’m just going to keep using this one for the time being. I would really like to keep only one account.

@unperson ok, I understand. So, you decided to migrate out then? Also, maybe I can ask you an unrelated question since you seem a lot knowledgeable than me on this stuff: I'm redirecting my older mastodon.online account to this one. In that account, there's an option to "stop redirecting". What does that means exactly? what happens to this account?

A las madres se les demuestra que las quieres con cada día, cada momento no con una mierda capitalista. Gracias hijos.🤗🤗

@unperson well, that sucks. How did you find all the servers that suspended qoto? Going one by one?

@skyblond it’s funny, because in their justification they admit qoto didn’t do anything wrong, only because it allows its users to decide if they want to see specific servers. There’s nothing preventing me from blocking anything I don’t want to see…

NGC 2768

Magnitude 9.9 lenticular galaxy located 65 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It’s an example of a Seyfert galaxy, an object with a supermassive black hole at its center.

@Exsangus Nice! I have simple system, but the Schneider controller doesn’t include the remote monitoring capability.

@citizen_astro yes it is! I would love to do some imaging, but it's been cloudy these last nights over here, so no joy for me... :blobsadrain:

For any new users wanting the look and feel of the official app but with the tl, check out app. It looks clean and very nice to use.

NGC 3077

Magnitude 10.6 small disrupted elliptical galaxy located 12.8 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by William Herschel in 1801.

Happy weekend to everyone! I'm planning to go for a drive 🚗 and find someplace interesting to eat with family, then maybe some tonight if the weather allows (it's new moon 🌑 these days, so we are in peak activity mode). If it gets clouded, then possibly play :blobpirate: or :blobcatgun: .

What are your plans for the weekend ❓

This is a good explainer on how post visibility works on . It may look a bit complex due to the decentralized nature of Mastodon, but in practice, it's a lot simpler than it looks for the vast majority of people.

A few years ago I made this flow chart of which Mastodon posts end up in which timelines! So, you can see how each instance will have a different l...
