@hilarybaumann Quite an adventure, but I'm sure this place'll be great for you! :)

@kendmiller Go to your notifications tab. See a symbol with 3 sliding switches on it? (horizontal lines with some squares in them). That's the options menu for configuring how your notifications should behave, it includes options for playing the sounds.

@hilarybaumann Yes. I'd actually recommend using the mobile web interface, it's already very mobile friendly.

See, Qoto is running on a modified Mastodon instance, with many extra features added (see here: qoto.org/about/more ).

The problem is that most apps are made for default Mastodon, without all those extra features. Some apps might not work that nicely, others will simply show the default options, you'd miss out on all those extras.

Seeing as you easily can pin a site to your home screen via your mobile's browser, and considering that the web interface has a very friendly mobile interface, I'd suggest you could try that out first.

@hilarybaumann Downloading? I'm actually talking about the mobile web interface, not an app. Unless you meant that? ;)

@wbic16 Just start sleeping at the right times, even if you're not tired yet. No phone or screens at least a half hour before zzz to give your brain a rest (go read a book or so). Preferably no (late) afternoon naps either, otherwise your sleep cycle gets wonky again.

@hilarybaumann There's a dark mode, Settings -> Preferences -> Check out the many themes this site has to offer.

I personally have gone for Mastodon Default Theme (Dark) myself.

Welcome to Qoto and the Fediverse!

@lavenderlens Be sure to read the house rules of this server at
qoto.org/about/more

If the sole purpose of this account is to promote your book, you might be at the wrong place.

@nova Why is qoto.org even on that list? We're a STEM-oriented instance with many scientists. Does the Fediverse hate scientists?

This is why a blocklist like this is such a bad idea, who's curating this anyway?

@lavenderlens Not even a proper introduction or a hello first? Just self-promotion immediately? :P

@dosnostalgic I remember my 486 did cost around 5000 guilders... somewhere $2500ish. Looking at this image.. yeah that looks about right.

@hvangalen Zien ze er dan van buitenaf zo hetzelfde uit dan?

@lucifargundam Physical work, outdoors, nights.. and it's a volunteer job? :P

Norton Commander, DOS Navigator, and Volkov Commander. Three legendary orthodox file managers for DOS.
What orthodox file managers do you use, and on which platforms?
I personally can barely function without one.
#IBMPC #DOS #Computing #MSDOS #Software

@mariawimber You mentioned a different mariawimber from the fediscience.org instance. Did you mean to move there, or was it a typo and you meant to be here on qoto.org? Just making sure because it looks a bit confusing. 😅

@Sugarfreak I mean, you certainly could start talking about the band!
