For fellow #Education arrivals, @freemo (the amazing Qoto.org admin) shared a Domain Blocking List.
If you import this comma-separated values (CSV) file into your Mastodon account via the Preferences, that can help keep spammers and bad actors out of your timelines/feeds. I know some folks have complained about it.
Here's the Domains Blocked file in Google Sheets. You can go to File ->Download->CSV to get a copy of the domains blocked list.
Then, once you have it saved, import it via your Preferences -> Import->Domain Blocking List as shown in the screenshot.

I know, right?
This thing is crazy. From Steven Pinker. It hurts my eyes too look at, I actually have too look away. But the center white is the same brightness/color as the radiating white (that's with the black). I think our minds just recognize it as the sun, but still create a physical response. Even after 15mins, I still can't look at it for too long.
ELON MUSK’S “FREE SPEECH” TWITTER IS STILL CENSORING DDOSECRETS via @micahflee

It makes me smile how well Mastodon caters for niche interests. There is even a hashtag for people who like tree trunks:
#ThickTrunkTuesday
😂🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
Related, Elon Musk wants #E2EE DMs in "Twitter 2.0" and has enlisted the help of Moxie Marlinspike, the founder of @signalapp and the architect of the #Signal protocol.

Whatever your opinion of Twitter is, E2EE improves security for everyone.
I am fine with conflict and arguments. I actually have trouble getting people to disagree with me enough. I get more annoyed by people agreeing with me too much.
Name calling, etc. annoys me.
I am finding the fediverse more pleasant and people more informed/open than the bird site.
Maybe the lack of algorithmic incitement to hate has something to do with it.
@slider7420 better?
For no good reason. Here's a glamor shot of the KX1 with a set of @n6ara Tiny Paddles. What a pairing! #QRP #MorseCode #HamRadio
@mrcippy How's that steam deck going. Can you give me a resolution comparison? I know it's 720p, but what does it feel like in relation to a desktop? 1080p, 1440p, 4k? I figure because of it's size and distance from your (stupid) face it has to feel higher than 720p.
pronounced (Obi) oh-bye. I like logic.
