@keithpp While I understand that the way #mastodon works can be confusing, the concept between #twitter and #mastodon are different so the "ID issue" is a non-issue => you just need to understand that the instance you are registered on *is part of your ID* (which is also why there is no need to *verify*, just spin up your instance with your domain, it will therefore be you)

Once this concept is integrated, every thing will make more sense

@ikea_femme @willhopkins I'll let you know the results. Probably going to try next week as I'll be alone at home for most of the week

@willhopkins @ikea_femme Well you know, in the spirit of decentralized and DIY, I have this PI so I should make a use of it, sounds like a nice little project that I can run from home

And it's cheaper too! 😄

@ikea_femme Aye, I know the ethernet and usb port share the same bus but for an instance with only a few users (talking about 10 max) I would hope it would be sufficient.

Although, I haven't really looked at the architecture of #mastodon yet so what I'm saying here is total speculation for now 😁

Bottom line is, needs to be tested!

Got a #RaspberryPi 2B that I don't use anymore. Could that host a private #mastodon #instance just for me an few friends?

Toot yourself people, you can even boost this status if you feel crazy enough

Any #video editors on mastodon?

I'm looking for a RAID array to store AND edit my video from there, not too expensive if possible. Any suggestions?

I found the LaCie 2big which looks nice with double Thunderbolt 2 connectors: https://www.amazon.co.uk/LaCie-Thunderbolt-Professional-Dual-Disk-Desktop/dp/B00KYFU5YM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491749297&sr=8-1&keywords=lacie+2big

Seems like spring finishes today after only one nice day yesterday in #scotland

Means that it's time to play on the simulator with my new #taranis #qx7 😄

#quadcopter #freestyle

So #tusky started to work with octodon.social but there was no update. I guess the instance admin did something about the auth and SSL setup.

nevertheless, it's great news that it works now!

Is there a way to #toot on our instance only?

The only option I have are:
- public
- unlisted
- private
- direct

#mastodon #faq

Looks to me that #dji is going for a selfie #drone with this one, not racing as they already have products line for it (#takion ESC, #snails motor, even a frame that has been reviewed by Rotor Riot)

@IMJ84 Are you able to connect to octodon.social instance? All android apps failed on me

Right forgot the basics, apologies for that.

So my interests are as follow:
#code
#quadcopter
#video
#science
#movies
#tvshows
#meme
#cats
#geek

@IMJ84 Indeed, but open-source and decentralized so ultimately better I would say

Welcome @IMJ84 😄 🐘 🎺 💨

Looks like there is no #oEmbed integration yet... But there is an issue on GitHub 🙌

https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/955

Same for #markdown support:

Let's see how #mastodon handles videos (from #vimeo)

BTW, this is my latest #video of #malta. What do you think?

@greatheight well, cannot logout as I cannot login in the first place 😁

@anders hum interesting, thanks for the info. I'll use the the browser then
