You are welcome!

And -- if you decide to open another account in a new instance, or move your account totally, you can easily Export the full list of the Blocked Domains to a .csv file.

That file can be imported, very easily, at the new place, and all the Blocks are in place there too.

Pretty neat, in fact. Used it myself, works as advertised.

Joining an interesting discussion. Groups, as in the Facebook Groups? These are one of their better features, and would be nice indeed.

Not sure it would happen here, though.

There is a Groups project that I am involved in, in testing phase, called Guppe Groups.

See it here: https://gup.pe/

@sendgaurav Hello Gaurav, and welcome to Qoto.

Enjoy the network and all it has to offer. If you are new to using Mastodon, there's a good guide here: https://lifehacker.com/a-beginner-s-guide-to-mastodon-1828503235

Any question, just ask, and someone will try and help out.

Have a good day!

@Sphinx I thought Telegram was all encrypted, no? Which one was Mr Snowden recommending?

Even WhatsApp is all e2e.

Tried Telegram and it seemed very nice and lots of features.

@TheMadPirate @cowanon

As Mad Pirate pointed out, if you opened the freespeech.com/web page, you should have the full Mastodon web interface, and similar to what we have here at Qoto.

Keep plowing, friend, we are all learning, everyday.

I just started here a month ago. And loving every minute. Cheers!

@evaristus @freemo

@realcaseyrollins Good point, yes!'

That's it, being a boost it won't show on "Local" feed, but will show on "Home" one.

I do see them in your profile. Thank you, and congrats on your good taste.

Felines rock! 😺

@realcaseyrollins Its funny, but my Local feed doesn't show those posts.

Maybe because I also follow the same Cat Posting bot, possibly.

And -- white background, ouch. Hurts my eyes...

Dark Mode for the Win!!

Screenshot, as I dont see these posts below your "I like Cats" post.

@cowanon
Well, you have the same software as I am using here right now. The home instance loaded into a browser for use. You should see the menu like I did.

BUT -- you need to Search for the @sinblr account in your own instance's Search box.

Notice on screenshot how I am using the search box, from my own instance, qoto.org, and lookign for "@sinblr" (without quotes.

If you do it from here, you have the options, all of them, Follow, mute, block, block whole instance.

@evaristus @freemo

@cowanon @evaristus @freemo
that could be not from the server, but from the client software you are utilizing.

Mine is the default Mastodon web interface - you can get the same if you open the qoto.org in a browser in any device - mobile or desktop.

Try that, is my guess you are on mobile and client is not full featured.

@Sphinx Wouldn't know, as I have not used it. Saw some long discussions about the app and the fact it's development is done in the USA -- and subjet of their laws.

Not very comforting when we have seen all the revelations Edward Snowden made about huge spying on the citizenry by their own country inteligence services.

Suggestion? Telegram.

@kosame Great to know you are trying out new things, Kosako, way to go. It's fun.

I never installed Fedilab itself, seeing that a Lite version was available -- but it's only on the F-Droid store, not on Google Play.

Look forward to your impressions after trying it. I found it pretty nice, but mobile is not my thing (unless traveling).

@binsrc LOL... 😜

@realcaseyrollins I haven't seen any yet. Did you post them here with the Qoto account?

@cowanon @evaristus @freemo

It's easy, as freemo described. Present in all user profile dot menus. Screenshot here for one.

@realcaseyrollins Couldn't tell, have you posted any pics yet? 😺

look at them kitties... #cats #mastocats #meow

@chikara Very nice work, Cikara, thank you for sharing it. 👍

@chikara That is so neat, I had never heard about it. Thank you, Chikara!

I love the rice paper lanterns, a Japanese and Chinese invention, the light they give is so soft and gentle. Relaxing for a quiet time at home.

@thegibson @lordbowlich This site also has other books by Jack Kerouac.
