Hello Mastodon/Qoto hoping there will be some interesting conversations here and less meglomaniacs pretending they're the savior of humanity.

Been doing web development for almost 20 years, currently working with / , , , , and .

I'm interested in , , , , , and .

I have thoughts on and our current moment, but I'm feeling gluttonous at almost 500 chars for my first toot.

@gooseus Welcome to Qoto and the Fediverse!

500 chars? I presume you're using an app? I can recommend to use the web interface instead, it's very mobile friendly and unlocks all the extra features that Qoto has to offer including about 65k characters to type in.

@trinsec Haha, nope, I'm in the web app, I was just looking at the character counter and making a joke about how long my first post was in comparison to the max post on Twitter.

For someone like me, it's tempting to write walls of text that then take up a whole lot of vertical space in another timeline of someone who might not be interested in reading a 2000 word essay on whatever random topic.

Curious about the other extra features though? Also, how much of the UX is Qoto vs Mastodon?

@gooseus Don't worry too much about the char count, I believe that very long posts get cropped and there'll be a 'Read More' link below. Of course, that's not an invitation for random spamming around. :D

For a list of extra features, go check out the 'About this server' link. It's a good idea to check it out regardless because the server rules are also listed in there.
