Just trying to wrap my head around this new platform.

Mastodon is the platform.

qoto is one of the many instances that are there of mastodon.

Correct ? Toople ??

@at Yes. Mastodon has no central server therefor instances are the servers which all have moderation.
What -exactly- federated means I don't know but it means about "connected".

@commandelicious

Can we see toots from multiple instances ?

My common sense says not but I think we can probably opt in to multiple instances that we are interested in.

@at In the federated timeline but that's uh, spamy.
You can search for hashtags though. There is discussion on github about multi-instancing, proof of concept exists.

@commandelicious
I see. Do you know the tech stack that is used to implement mastodon ?

@at Germany, the north-west part, and it's bedtime :D

@commandelicious
Oh ok :-)

Good night then. You are already late to bed I suppose.
