Letztendlich bekommen die, die sich auf #Mastodon einlassen, das ganze #Fediverse noch dazu!

@Someone @jantietje @johnnythan innerhalb der ersten 3 Tage kommen ausreichend Kommentare die exakt darauf hinweisen. Ich behaupte es ist nicht möglich"neu auf Mastodon" zu tröten ohne innerhalb von 36 Stunden auf die Vielfalt des Fediverses hingewiesen zu werden.

Ich nutze #Mastodon jetzt was länger. Aber ich glaube noch immer blicke ich nicht durch. Ich folge für mich interessanten Accounts, ich schaue regelmäßig in der Suche nach Hashtags und Co aber ich habe irgendwie das Gefühl ich mache was falsch.

Hey everyone,

@casey and @rania40 had the honour of speaking to three families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Esraa (@esraa_ii)
• Raghad Rajjae (@Raghadaln18)
• Abeer_adel14 (@Abeer_adel14)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

💕

"The fediverse is only half built on an open standard."

Good read.

A beautiful woman with twin braids wearing a navy colored t-shirt featuring the slogan "I write alt text" next to a cartoon reproduction of the Birth of Venus, with Venus portrayed by a cute elephant. Next to the painting, there are two other elephants, one of who is wearing dark glasses and is holding a cane, while the other is guiding him and describing the painting. Underneath, there is a textual description of the above design.

The European Commission has registered a new Citizen Initiative, calling for a European social media platform.
In detail: The initiative invites the Commission to establish, through a legislative act, “a public social media platform at the European level”. That "would form an alternative to the current platforms and work as a service for the society, be funded by the society and be under its oversight”.

Just getting this out there. I've had a few DM's now about this image and reuse (you very polite copyright respecting people)

I created it (it's a title card from my stream) using downloaded assets but in compliance with their licenses although correct me if I'm wrong.

I absolutely do not mind anyone using it for any purpose if it's boosting awareness of the Fediverse.

Support the Fediverse. Social media is better without the billionaires.

🚨 Mastodon DOES NOT ask you to verify yourself, EVER. 🚨

Currently there are scammers who want you to click a link by acting like #Mastodon staff

Please REPORT these accounts so we can ban them across the #Fediverse

WE DO NOT VERIFY PEOPLE ON MASTODON

⚠️ Scam warning: there are accounts posing as Mastodon admins claiming to offer "rewards" or "payments" or "partnerships".

These are scams. There are no reward or payment schemes on Mastodon. No genuine admin would ever send this kind of post or reply.

If you see scam posts like the ones in the screenshot below, report them by clicking ⋯ on the scam posts and then selecting "report".

I've always wanted to be able to filter my #mastodon feeds by people I'm following or hashtags, instead of one huge noisy feed of both.

I've got enough working now I'd love for others to give it a shot, everything is stored in your browser, no tracking or servers collecting data.

if you have a few minutes I'd love others try it out or reshare

You can find it here: https://elefeed.app/

Mastodon.bd is finally up and running.

It’s the first Bangladesh-focused Mastodon instance on the fediverse. I’ve been wanting to see something like this exist for a long time, so it feels good to finally put it online.

Even though the focus is Bangladesh, the instance is open to everyone, regardless of where you’re from.

#bangladesh #fediverse #mastodon #asia #dhaka

#Sengi 1.9.0 is out! 🎉

It can now display Quote Posts properly (Creation and Notification will come later), and thanks to the work of @rpetti we now have an updated emoji lib to support more types!

If you see any visual bugs on Quoted Posts, please open an issue on Github.

#mastodon #pleroma #app #client

I’m building a new tool and looking for volunteers to test it! A #fediverse linktree.

It’s designed for two types of people:

Normies / newcomers – Think of it like a free, privacy-respecting Linktree. No trackers, no ads. But here's the cool part: it's a Trojan horse for the fediverse. Your profile link is itself an ActivityPub actor. That means people can interact with it directly in the fediverse, and it encourages exploration of open platforms.

Fediverse users, If you have multiple accounts (#Mastodon, #Pixelfed, Loops, a federated blog…), you know the struggle: sometimes you just want one persona to follow. This tool gives you that. It doesn’t post on its own (read-only), but it boosts all your other accounts and even has its own #ActivityPub inbox. PLUS it can receive and show your badges issued by @badgefed !

Interested in testing? Reply here, I will reach out in the next 24-48hrs with an invitation link.

For once, in an article looking at alternatives to Big Tech the Guardian has acknowledge (and indeed given a half a paragraph to) Mastodon....
