To all mastodon admins:
Hi! I’m Evan Phoenix, the primary author of puma, the ruby webserver that powers mastodon!
Please reply or DM me if you need tuning help! I’ve got no officiation with the mastodon, just want to see you succeed!
(Quick Tip: set WEB_CONCURRENCY to core count * 1.5 and then tune MAX_THREADS. High thread values will see diminishing returns!)
@kelseyhightower nothing. You can verify yourself against a website though which is the Mastadon equivalent
@Jrz813 apparantly then its Lemmy you're after next ;)
@kelseyhightower https://bitcoinhackers.org/@mastodonusercount/109378378833035843 Friday what crazy, but the signups have continued at the same 3000 per hour rate through the weekend
@holly@mstdn.io the admin basically just let you Toot the length of the database field, so 65535 technically :) Also stuff like Markdown, Latex typesetting and things, bascially each admin can make their own decisions, which adds to the variety :)
You can also do stuff like, change your theme, and stuff in preferences, you'll find it pretty flexible, I believe.
Also with the mobile apps, shop around Android has Tusky which seems to be the best, iOS have a few different versions as well.
@holly@mstdn.io Try not to compare it to twitter and you'll probably find it a better onboarding experience.
I find, generally, the interactions are more and better with far fewer followers, in part due to the lack of quote tweets, and lack of ML based algo to push things down your throat.
Also, bear in mind, every server host is different, in terms of features, customisations and what they offer, so your features may not match my features, but the same goes for me because I can write a 65k character Toot and I bet you can't! ;)

Seeing people with coding ability commenting on features they want in Mastodon, many of them framing their insights as if there is a bug.
Almost all ideas I have seen so far could be implemented in a client or a relay. For ones that can't, there are pull requests. For ones that are declined, downstream forking is feasible.
It's #OpenSource & based on a truly open standard, #ActivityPub. How about we frame ideas positively & look for places to contribute? This is not a walled garden run by VCs.
@juliemc hello Julie stick your details into fedifinder.glitch.me/ and it will do it's best to match your Twitter folk with your Mastodon folk

It is so awesome to see a human-rated, deep-space craft... actually in deep space. For all of SLS and Orion's well-documented problems, this is only the second time in history that this has happened. Thinking back to watching the early Orion design analysis cycles internally in 2007-2010 and watching that heading towards to the moon.
