@War_Kittens I wonder if that's how our parents must feel too (but a bit worse).
@War_Kittens
Honestly, there's only a few suggestions I can make when you want to connect with your buddies on a server that blocks us:
- You move to a server that can connect with them.
- They move to another server that can connect with us.
Additionally, you or them can create a 2nd account.
That's totally up to you all, and that's something you'll have to discuss among yourselves. But the reasons given for the blocking is ancient, and some detest us because _we_ don't block the same stuff like they do. You can't please everyone I guess.
@imasdemase
That is correct.
The only exception to unlisted is if the bot "looks" like it is a real person. That is, they respond to comments and are otherwise active in the community.
If it is just an informational bot that provides no responses, then it must be unlisted.
@War_Kittens
Qoto is blocked by a few instances, not a 'decent amount'. This is one of the most connected servers around.
We also have clearly defined rules as per our About page: https://qoto.org/about/more
So if there are instances blocking us for trans/homophobia, they're very mistaken. @freemo would be absolutely livid if one of the users on Qoto would be expressing trans/homophobia.
The thing about Twitter is that it really lacks a lot of the features you'd expect from a true Mastodon replacement.
For example, there's no way to edit your toots (which they, confusingly call "tweets"—let's face it, it's a bit of a silly name that's difficult to take seriously).
"Tweets" can't be covered by a content warning. There's no way to let the poster know you like their tweet without also sharing it, and no bookmark feature.
There's no way to set up your own instance, and you're basically stuck on a single instance of Twitter. That means there's no community moderators you can reach out to to quickly resolve issues. Also, you can't de-federate instances with a lot of problematic content.
It also doesn't Integrate with other fediverse platforms, and I couldn't find the option to turn the ads off.
Really, Twitter has made a good start, but it will need to add a lot of additional features before it gets to the point where it becomes a true Mastodon replacement for most users.
@HagbardCeline Excellent!
@HagbardCeline I thought that instance blocked us but I'm not seeing qoto.org in their blocklist...
Alright, the better way to follow people is to copy the URL address of their profile page in your Qoto's search bar. That way you can follow them from within Qoto's interface which might be more convenient.

@savourtardis The best result you can have is 5 swaps left. In this case you have 4 swaps left (4 stars) which is also pretty good.
@ceoln Yay, keep it up!
Mastodon Feature Wish
@imasdemase I see, you are making a bot. Keep in mind that bots are bound to rules.
The bot needs to post unlisted and needs to be marked as a bot in the profile.
If you want to test a lot, do it unlisted as to not spam the feed.
@imasdemase Yes.. can we try not to spam?
@War_Kittens I like voids.
@pganssle Uh oh. ;)
@knuppelbeer
Oh je leest het prima hoor. ;)
@knuppelbeer
Ja jij zou maar een winterslaap houden daar. ;)
@bobbensonbill Have fun at your new home. Life long and prosper!
Mastodon Feature Wish
@ceoln I actually like the current behavior. That way I can scroll-by-comment. ;)
Though having a toggle for it wouldn't be a bad idea I suppose. Suggest it at the Mastodon github or wherever they have this stuff?
Main account is now on @trinsec
I've resigned as moderator on Qoto.org since 29-aug-2023.
This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
