Hi everyone, I am new here and learning the platform. By way of background, I am a chemical biologist and glycoscientist on the Stanford Chemistry faculty. Known for creating a field called #bioorthogonal chemistry (for which I shared the 2022 NP) and launching biotech companies with new therapeutic and diagnostic platforms, mostly rooted in glycobiology. Passionate about interdisciplinary science, diversity equity and inclusion in STEM, peanut butter, gyms and 70s funk.

This is a big problem for Mastodon.

Canadian journalist Erica Ifill just had her mastodon.online account suspended without explanation. She's been sharing stuff critical of Mastodon re: intersectional issues.

I get the decentralized structure and idea that each server has its own rules. But this Reddit-style moderation, where moderators with god-complexes make mysterious and arbitrary decisions, is going to cause people migrating to Mastodon to flee in droves.

It’s amazing how much I’ve gravitated to using open source projects in the last few years. #Blender for my 3D art. Darktable for raw photo editing. #Krita for digital painting. Running @elementary on my main laptop. Nice to be able to use an open source alternative for my social media as well.

@freemo Thank you! And thank you for standing up for LGBTQ users!

Well, lets see if they care anymore if I expose this shit on twitter. If you have an account there feel free to show some support:

@doctormo Hello there! Migration apparently successful - that was shockingly easy.

Also, many thanks for the #inkscape work on #PDF imports and fonts. I just watched your update today and it all looks wonderful.

At some point I'm going to have to go hunt down whatever your most recent build is to test. I've actually got a relatively large PDF file to manipulate and the font selector looks lovely.

RSS fans!

You can follow any Mastodon account via RSS by just adding ".rss" to the end of the account's public profile URL.

To find a user's public profile URL, click on their profile image within Mastodon.

For example, if you click on FediTips' profile image you get this page in a new tab:

mstdn.social/@feditips

So, to follow FediTips through RSS, use this address:

mstdn.social/@feditips.rss

This will only show that account's public posts. Other posts will not be visible on the RSS feed.

#RSS #MastoTips #FediTips #Mastodon

if you are running into an issue following somebody being stuck in "request sent" and their account normally doesn't screen their follows (or their server is not silencing yours). go to the web page and cancel the request before trying again. theree seems to be a bug either on 3.5.3 or its interaction with mobile clients #feditips
