TWITTER: “use first name last name if you can — it looks professional”
MASTODON: “Hi I’m fluffy at homosexual dot party”

PSA: if you see a remote toot and think "wow that is an amazing toot, why does it have 0 favs/boosts/replies"? It probably doesn't. It's just that nobody from this instance follows someone who fav'ed/boosted/replied to it.

One thing I found useful is to just eagerly follow people you see in the Federated timeline saying stuff you like. You can always unfollow/block later.

The Masto experience gets fleshed out the more you use an instance. Keep in mind toot.cafe is 4 days old. 😄

This comic speaks my truth.

mastodon is boring right now but twitter is even more boring.

If I said you had a beautiful body would it mean anything in a universe where beauty is subjective even within the narrow bounds of human form, or would the comment still resonate as a personal judgement of aesthetic quality and therefore bring a smile to your face regardless?

i am running low on water, the expando lists are coming for me...i see them, with their folders winking in the dark...

I like that I can't see the favorite/boost numbers.
I am not biased by the perceived popularity of a toot

If that guy was a Mastodon co-founder then I'm a Certified Mastodon Engineer with 10+ years experience

Would anyone be interested in an #ADHD mutual aid group on mastodon?

For people who only do the thing they know they should do, when they are accountable (sort of) to someone who is waiting to hear back from them that they did the thing. And similar needs.

We can do it privately, just tagging those in the group to request help. And then when someone agrees to help, they can talk between the two of them.

Or something like that?

im pretty sure "but in an eldritch unknowable geometry" improves every single game

Another night of protests in the streets of Budapest Hungary against the right wing govt with new law to shut down a world famous university for political reasons. Thousands of students now in the streets at midnight to protest new law signed by the president. on the 12th will be another massive protest against an anti.NGO law.

Shit's going down.

I'm only saying this because I've seen someone claim to be a Mastodon co-founder, not to toot my own horn.

For the record there are no co-founders of Mastodon. Not in a startup way (it's not a startup) nor in a development way (I started the project on my own)

I've never felt dumber for not knowing a second language than I do when using this site.
