Years ago, Pew Research Center identified 6 types of Twitter conversation networks. How many are common on Mastodon?
Definitely #2 (unified, tight networks), maybe #3 (fragmented networks united by hashtags on popular topics).

I love the way how mangal beech parks are organized in Turkey.
The best place to spend some quality time with family on weekends.

“I think we [journalists] got lazy as a field, and we let Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and, god help us, Elon Musk and their staff decide all these major journalistic questions.”
I couldn’t agree more with journalist @adamdavidson in this thoughtful and reflective Q&A about joining #Mastodon

Super funny, I woke up inspired to write something today. 🤔
I'm going to write a post about the basics of smart contracts, writing them, and using #golang to build app and write tests.
I had some fun today with connecting toots to telegram channel.
It's pretty easy from mastodon side and I have to give credit to mastodon for that!
I am not convinced that I will keep this in production, since I don't really need this.
I did it using https://github.com/littlebear0729/Mastodon2TG as a reference code, btw.
Just for fun I'd like to repeat this with #rust.
Going to try tungstenite crate.
There is exactly one thing that is regrettable about mastodon.
It's all those endless conversation about mastodon.
Daily in timeline:
- A few hundreds of short how-to's "how to post in mastodon";
- Tens articles "what is different about mastodon vs something";
- A few attempts to enforce some rules like: "YOU MUST USE CW WHEN I PERSONALLY WANT IT FROM YOU" and other virtue signalling.
The rest is "why twitter is worse".
And there is no any trend of reducing this.
God gave us strengths to survive this period.

Hello Mastodon. I post random photos from the NW Highlands of Scotland. Mostly from Torridon.

Hey Linux geek, you can use PGP, parsed by @keyoxide, to be verified on Mastodon. It only takes 12 minutes:
Too much? here's an easy HTML way, too:

I wrote about why your zsh starts slowly and how to fix it
Now I have another challenge with pixelfed and mastodon.
If both are the same protocol, if I even can use the same mobile app for both.
What is the difference then?
Why have both of them? Just because of WEB UI❓

Now and then I give up to be a nerd and travel a bit.
Can you guess the location of this photo?
Can you guess the location of this photo?
Finally, I found a way to start my own pixelfed server.
(Pretending it was hard and not it's me being stupid)
Now, it makes much more sense.
And my previous question what is "fediverse" in "pixelfed" appears to be stupid.
I apologize for that.
Do you understand what notion.ai offered us today?
