@Xoktz Puedo intentarlo.

- Todas las instancias son independientes y se rigen por sus propios equipos de administración y moderación.

- pueden seleccionar un tema para su instancia, y establecer un tono local, o ejecutar una instancia más relajada y genérica.

- La moderación se realiza principalmente en el contenido generado localmente. No tenemos control sobre lo que otras personas en instancias remotas publican, por lo que es mejor no preocuparse por ello a menos que afecte a un usuario local.

- si esto sucede, un usuario local está siendo acosado por uno remoto, por ejemplo, podría ponerse en contacto con su equipo de moderación local, reportar las postes infractoras.

- Los moderadores locales examinarán las publicaciones, y si se consideran ofensivos, podrían ponerse en contacto con el equipo de moderación de instancias remotas y discutir el asunto.

- con su cooperación, es de esperar que podamos resolver el asunto y evitar cualquier escalada adicional.

- si el administrador remoto y los mods no cooperan, como último recurso podríamos desconectarnos de esa instancia, ya no recibir sus mensajes ni enviarles ningún mensaje creado localmente.

Esto debería resolver los problemas.

Original in English, translation above via Bing :

I can certainly try.

- all instances are independant, and governed by their own administration and moderation teams.

- they can select a theme for their instance, and set a local tone, or run a more relaxed and generic instance.

- moderation is done mostly on content generated locally. WE don't have control over what other people in remote instances post, so it's best to not worry about it unless it affects a local user.

- if this happens, a local user is being harassed by a remote one, for example, they could contact their local moderation team, report the offending post(s).

- The local moderators will look at the posts, and if deemed offensive they might contact the remote instance moderation team and discuss the matter.

- with their cooperation, we can hopefully solve the matter and avoid any further escalation.

- if the remote admin and mods are not cooperative, as a last resort we could disconnect from that instance, no longer receiving their messages or sending them any locally created messages.

This should resolve the issues hopefully.

@freemo Wow, that is a big list of new features! Amazing, thank you.

some of them I have seen mentioned as features in GlitchSoc (bookmarks) but most are new as far as I know. 😄

Thank you for taking the time to push the envelope!!

@venkatesh Hello, 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

We also have another new users guide, posted here : https://write.tedomum.net/rgx/suggestions-and-guidelines-for-new-users-written-by-mastodon-art-administrator

@freemo
That sounds perfectly correct, but an unlisted post will not be casually discoverable by people browsing the public timelines, so it would remain obscure unless someone knew about them, specifically.

For the Arxiv bots, unlisted wouldn't work for that reason, although it would clean up the local timeline.

@khird

@ErikaDesign

Yes, that sure is some serendipity at work. And the fact that you joined an instance that has a pretty liberal federation policy -- we only block an instance (currently two only, I believe) if there were problems with them, and they could not be resolved.

A lot of places have erected walls and blocked gab and their peripheral instances (yes ,there are some) since they first joined the fediverse, uninvited.

It was a big discussion at the time, I wasn't here yet but there are good articles on the net relating how it happened and what people said, did at the time.

@freemo @lol

@khird
That would make sense, to avoid clogging local timelines. But there isn't a privacy setting for Toots that matches that yet -- Federated but not local.

Unlisted would not show on Federated, and would make them hard to discover, unless the person knew they were there. And the next levels are even not occult.

@freemo

@freemo @lol Oh, really ?

Surprising, as it's not in the Mastodon project itself. Wonder where they got the code from, and how it integrates.

@QOTO Discourse Forum loading has indeed improved -- Wonderful. TY!!!

@Xoktz @miguel31416 Ah, bueno, gracias por mencionarlo, Xoktz -- sin duda no está mas allá como deberia.

Hay mucha documentación, en Inglés, ahi : https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

Que se puede veer con el Bing Translator en Español ahi : https://www.translatetheweb.com/?ref=TVert&from=&to=es&a=https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

@miguel31416 @Xoktz Hola y bienvenido a Qoto!

Si es nuevo en la red Mastodon, se puede veer un guia para nuevos usuarios ahi :

* "Guía básica de Mastodon para principiantes"

https://www.realdroid.es/2018/10/07/mastodon-guia-basica/

* tambien una FAQ (Questiones Frequentes) a este sitio :

https://github.com/tootsuite/documentation/blob/master/Using-Mastodon/FAQ_ESP.md

@freemo Found it, and indeed is listed on About/More page:

"* Full text searches - usually you can only search hashtags and usernames"

@lol
The Groups feature is present in Gnu Social, but not in any Mastodon version that I have seen or heard about, lol.

So it's not an easy thing to be added.

@freemo

@freemo I had suggested we could use the Dark Theme as the instance default, yes.

I think the site looks nicer on that than the Light colour one. Gargron uses the Dark Theme as default at m.social too. 🙂

Oh, the Joy of seeing the REAL large limit for Toots now showing in Pinafore as well!!

@freemo I will have a look, thanks.

@freemo I think we should mention somewhere in our About this Instance that we also have Full Text Search -- which most places don't have.

Great time saver, I can usually pull up what I need in short order.

More results in Search is great too. 👍

@freemo

Wonderful, thank you -- I am glad the upgrade went so smoothly, wooot. 😃

Great work, boss!

@mngrif

@freemo @mngrif

@freemo @mngrif success!! Tusky now shows 65,535 chars limit. Thank you!! 👍😊☀️

@freemo @mngrif testing now with Fedilab Lite, but it's showing me the char count, not the normal, reversed top down count.
