It feels like Friday but it's only Thursday. I imagine there's a really long German word that specifically describes that feeling.
Did I just "quote toot" by mistake? Looks like it! It also looks like I'm plagiarizing @rateldajer. I only meant to reply :confused:
Me peeking in at the #catsodon hashtag
I wrote a little Mastodon 101 yesterday.

If you are hosting a server/community and want me to blurb it in the post send me a message, with the blurb!
Already having to learn new terms on here - for example #fediverse. Some user-friendly onboarding could be a great addition in future.
Must find #DoctorWho mastodon before the new season starts :robot:
Totally tooting at work. Productivity: :chart_with_downwards_trend:
Quote toot would be nice. One of the very few improvements Twitter ever implemented. Although at what point do I stop comparing this to Twitter, and start thinking of it as its own thing?
It's kinda weird to think about a social network where businesses own their own presences, rather than relying on a capricious third party service like Twitter or Facebook. Imagine NBC or The Verge running a Mastodon instance for their reporters to toot from, or Bethesda operating an instance for PR and customer support. No more lost business when Facebook changes their algorithms again because they need more money from boosted posts.
Weird, right?
Add yourself to https://mastodon-bridge.herokuapp.com/ so we can find you!
It's the remix to Twitter, all those devs they be bitter, users rollin in content but ain't no ads up in hither. Gimme that toot toot. Don't gimme that tweet tweet
More or less picked this instance at random - what do most people base their choice on?
#onhere because I can't sleep at the moment, mainly! Read an article on the potential for an open source Twitter years ago, interested to see how this works.
