** To all the nice people who follow my account at Qoto.org : **

I have started building up and using a new account at Muensterland.social, a new instance for me, which is the home for all my Blog Publishing from now on.

Details ? here : write.tedomum.net/rgx/muenster

If you are interested in what I post here -- be i the photos, the Fediverse reporting, my opinions, news and commentary, etc, I would suggest you consider following this, my sister account : @rgx@muensterland.social

I am a Staff member here at Qoto, and don't plan to change that - but for my personal Writing content, I see this diversion as a needed move.

And it's already working as I expected, thankfully. Soon I will write a new page detailing and explaining my reasoning - and I look forward to publishing it.

Thank you for your attention and support in my personal journey.

[ a growing account and part of the Feline Lovers crowd so powerful there. ]

WA/FL has stunning, beautiful and I recommend a Follow and visit. friends, take note, on of the good things to be found on twitter.

Sometimes I get a good chuckle while checking emails. My Mod account has a filter and all the New Member applications go neatly into a special Folder.

And there I found this. 😜 ❤️

..and a better view?

...produced the official Release post : muensterland.social/@rgx/10431

I won't even copy it here in full as the formatting will be mangled by mastodon, argh.

But this is what it looks like if you open that link in Pinafore, or on a Glitch or Pleroma instance. Try it. ❤️

* Superb new Themes in a GlitchSocial instance *

Just finished the Blog post for today.

I made a quick draft at the Discourse Forum, linked in a previous post.

That was most of the writing, and I made new screenshots in dual sizes for the blog; 640 p wide for normal, and a click on version at 1200 p wide.

It's quite pretty, I think, and a tribute to a dedicated fellow Fediverse enthusiast, who puts many hours and currency every month to keep his instance online.

...And I just had the pleasure of Approving 6 new incoming user applications.

People who saw our Questionnaire at the Front Door, and provided Proper Responses! What a Thrill.

Honest, not trying to be Ironic -- most of the new applications are Reject outright since :

* there's zero input from their side.
* there's irrelevant small talk
* worse there's a sample of their intended Viagra advert stub, URLs and all.

Not kidding, so finding Human responses, with appropriate answers makes my day.

Welcome to you - and I hope you enjoy our instance and the Fediverse.

I would love to post a screenshot, as it's a special view, but not doing for privacy reasons. You are all in, new Friends.

And the post can look So Much Better with formatting love added.

* Why the World can be a Better Place with MarkDown ?

...just see my fresh new post. Here in the Discourse Forum for now, but it's practically ready for a Write.Freely blog post.

Mastodon cannot even come close to displaying content that well, sadly. Friendica can though.

And -- my favourite platform, the elegant and fast Write.Freely blog I love.

Forum thread here : discourse.qoto.org/t/superb-th

Thank you to Tom, @emuz for all his work at his instance -- Recommended by this

Love to see someone using the fantastice BeOS -- I remember, when it came out I was very active on the OS/2 op system support groups.

Thanks for the post, @claudiom@mastodon.sdf.org

@realcaseyrollins@mstdn.social @catbot@miaou.drycat.fr

Thanks - - I didn't know the account, added it now.

I made a post this past Friday, on the hashtag, and even started a new one or Felines Follow Friday.

Will update on my records and add this nice new one next week, thank you! I get lots of Boosts and Favourite notifications, plus new followers, everytime I do a posting run. 😺

@freemo Well done, very good.

And excellent work on implementing that feature, new in non-Japanese instances (in Nippon they created that for Misskey).

I was honoured that you pursued this feature to serve my own nomad lifestyle, lol, but I need the real thing, to join and post as a Local in any instance I am interested it is my modus-operandi.

Thanks to the power and flexibility of the great Pinafore client for Fediverse instances, each of my current 11 or so are ONE click away; I do keep various tabs of Pinafore open, with the most frequently used instances loaded in each.

As I have stated and explained before, this is a personal choice, for a inquiring mind and mid to advanced level users. Not for the average user, who is better served by locating one good instance and staying with it.

Qoto.org has Many good things, and that is the reason I volunteer and put many hours and thousands of posts here.

But that's only one side of me; and I have interests that make having various accounts desirable; and I act on them, as you know.

This morning I am connected and actively communicating from 3 instances atm; each with a focus and local feature set that makes it interesting and useful.

But the feature you are referring to, and which got endorsed by a well created poll, is not an important one for me (reasons stated above).

Getting a better software instance is Number one -- I am moving to Glitch-Social as much as possible. Pleroma awaits a thorough evaluation, which I plan to publish in my Blog.

Enhanced text formatting is so satisfying that I dread anytime I post something significant -- like this very post, which I will use as part of a Blog, real soon -- in an instance which doesn't off me that.

I remain a user here, but Nomad is my heart.

And if you know me, you know I am a free thinker and a curious Traveller in this of ours.

Just joined a new community -- the Mastodon instance for the Write.as company, who are the developers of my beloved Write.Freely blog platform.

I wanted to be close to them (already been a member on their Forums for months), so I can see new ideas, comment and suggest my own, be an active contributor to what for me is a GREAT project.

write.as/

and the free open source site at writefreely.org/

Big thank you to Matt, @matt , the project leader - great work, friend.

I will be signing in as @rgx@writing.exchange there.

Why we are always open to new aspiring leadership -- staff volunteers here at Qoto.org ...

...'cause, lots to do.

Talent always wanted and volunteers appreciated.

Desired Features for new staff?

* ACTIVE participants in our community.
* Well polished in written communications.
* Foreign languages are a nice Bonus, so we could serve more people in their native tongue(s).
* Knowledgeable, yet humble in interactions with others.

Which in my personal view are all great qualities in a human being.

See my personal views in great detail on my November reflections, before I was nominated for a staff position here.

All orange cats are tabbies. Even if their stripes are faint, they’re there. So, while all orange cats are tabbies, not every tabby is orange. A Calico with tabby stripes is known as a Tabico or Calliby.

Let's see some cute…
