i compulsively like most toots that are directed at me. i’m trying to be more intentional about which ones i favorite/like.
@cyberlesbiab hi, your music is really good.

hi I wish the CW show more button had a keyboard shortcut or at least weren't so small!!
@Hedonprincess
Could be something much more complex at play here, too.
It's not well formulated in my head yet but: by not CWing posts you might have built an audience that responds to non-CWed posts, and the audience that responds to CWs stopped following. Or something like that.
Or maybe it is as simple as you said, too.
@morganth
Of course my strategy of 1. go to the subway station, 2. then look at Mastodon has failed me here.
Thanks for the heads up!
@Hedonprincess
I'm the opposite! I usually make one pass through reading just the CWed posts (the ones I'm interested in, anyway), and then if I have the time and energy I make a second pass for the non-CWed posts.
mastodon tip:
definitely consider using a cw as a subject line over threads of toots even if they don't need a cw
makes it way easier to know what your talking about when we see "Harry Potter" or something in the CW instead of just stumbling upon the fourth paragraph in a thread without context 👍

Tumblr, Blogspot, LiveJournal, Ghost, Medium. This isn't me recommending any, just listing some.

@acepoohbear and to echo what Heather said but in another way: Switter is part of the fediverse. We highly encourage you to find an instance that reflects your needs and the kind of support you want: https://instances.social/
@Laurelai I've watched you reply to them and been impressed every time. You come off as a fantastic admin.
@HerraBRE You're getting an impressive number of technical solutions in the replies. All the spam I've seen has been social problems -- individuals ignoring social norms or generally not caring about whether they are spamming. What do you think?
@MistressEmelia I really like the idea of advertising small issues that newcomers can try!
Have some programming skills and have thought about contributing to @mastodon?
Here's a good issue for you to try and implement, you'll need to know Ruby and HAML (it's like HTML).
@keverets Definitely!
And at the same time, is that such a bad thing? Like. Maybe growing by people slowly trickling in isn't a horrible terrible thing, maybe it's just absolutely fantastic? :D
@MistressEmelia
I always do a separate method for that kind of thing.
