A public service announcement, to clarify once again that "Public" posts, are, as the name implies, "Public".
As in, people can see them. Anyone, from anywhere. Dooh, if you don't like that idea, Mastodon has a number of Privacy settings for posts that might offer more control if desired.
Noelle has an excellent Guide to Mastodon, and the image on this post is a screencap of the part of it which clarifies this.
RSS feeds are created by default for everyone's Public and Unlisted posts. The noise some people were making about the Misskey feature, now present here at Qoto.org, which allows easily subscribing to anyone's public and unlisted posts is just the same as using an RSS feed reader to subscribe to that user's RSS feed.
Disinformation, paranoia and rancour have caused some to de-federate with Qoto.
Maybe it's for the best, if they are that obtuse.

So in 2005 i reverse scammed a online scammer. They tried to steal money from my grandmother but luckily didn't get it. I spent the next few weeks utterly destroying the scammer, I have full logs and pictures to show it.
First I convinced him I was a crime lord that lived in the USA and wanted to take him under my wing and teach him how to "really" scam people. This involved a few days of trust building.
Next I got him to take a picture and hold up a sign that said "Mia Azzburn" to prove he trusted me, he did it, lol
Next I convinced him I would try to get him into the mafia but if he wanted me to do that first he would have to do something to win over our god father.. .who happened to have a soft spot for santa clause. So I convinced him to dress up as santa clause and take pictures of it and send it to me so I could give it to our godfather as a "gift" so the god father would accept him into the mafia. He got it wrong but I got him to redo it like 3 or 4 times continually sending new pictures.
It was hilarious and priceless but in the end despite all the hurt he did to others I still kinda felt bad for him, especially after scamming him. So I told him he was just scammed and encouraged him not to do it again. At that point we became friends, I told him my real name, and for years after that I would help him learn programming so he could make a real honest career for himself.
Just looked him up online and he even wound up going to university, got a degree, and lives a seemingly honest life now. I'm happy for him. But man I still LOL at this.

This is priceless.

DissidentKitty "leaving fedi" - Very long.
DissidentKitty,
Your behavior is nothing less than a cancer on the fediverse. Over 8 months ago, I predicted a situation like this, and I'm happy to see that (mostly) cooler heads have prevailed, and that your behavior has been called out as wholly unacceptable.
Not only have you tarnished the image of the fediverse as a whole, but you've also tarnished the image of social justice, that cause you claim to fight for with all of your being. Using someone's race or gender as an excuse for your indefensible behavior towards them is racist, sexist, and only gives more ammunition to the far-right, because it shows that you aren't inclusive, you just want to start political drama and be patted on the back for it.
This debacle is the logical result of a few large instances incentivizing and glorifying callout culture. Ironically, it took calling you out to SBC's hosting provider for your admin to actually put a damper on it.
Don't let the socket hit your ass on the way out, consider doing a flip, and be assured that the fediverse will happily continue on without you.

Glad to see Noelle over at the wonderful elekk.xyz instance make this post. In all my dealings with her she has always shown to be a person of excellent character. My only fear is I hope this post isnt used against her in some way.
She has my sincerest thanks and respect.

#WhatsApp is so popular in #Africa, even knock-off versions are used more often than Facebook https://qz.com/africa/1804859/
GB WhatsApp, the most widely used WhatsApp mod across major African markets, allows users operate multiple accounts, restore deleted messages and send and receive larger media files (up to 50 megabytes compared to 16 megabytes on WhatsApp). #GBWhatsApp also offers users more control of privacy settings, including hiding features that notify others when users are online, recording a voice-note or typing a message.

after the doxxing incident I don't think its a good idea to send them non public notices. I doubt they can be trusted not to read DMs at this point.

here's something about kindness from @neilhimself@twitter.com that I think about all the time
It looks like scholar.social is starting to engage in doxxing too.

This channel was promising and suddenly she got a concussion and nothing new in a year. Poor girl. I hope she gets well enough to post more! She deserves more than less than 100 views per video!

So would seem that recently Sunbeamcity.com has stated that their administrative position is to support and protect doxxing when they deem it appropriate.
This puts people at real danger especially considering the poor reputation the person doing the doxxing has (a laundry list of false accusations with no evidence).
The question I want to ask, should the QOTO policy be updated t include a clause where we defederate from any instance that supports doxxing?
Vote if you'd like but ultimately the comments will decide where I stand on the issue.
