I noticed a new cirled question-mark icon next to my Fediverse address on my Mastodon account.

Tapping it exposed a pop-up.

It seems like it is a message to me.

reiver is your username on this server. Someone on another server might have the same username.

mastodon.social is your server that hosts your profile and posts.

Just like you can send emails to people using different email clients, you can interact with people on other Mastodon servers โ€“ and with anyone on other social apps powered by the same set of rules as Mastodon uses (the ActivityPub protocol).

    Following on from yesterday's blog post about the new design for profiles coming in Mastodon 4.6... here is the video of @imanijoy recent talk at @fossdesign where they discuss the challenges and detailed thought that goes into the design of new features (and the redesign of existing ones). ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ

      CW: Spicy take about Mastodon (specifically) [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

      If you really believe in the silly 250 character limit, then why the heck is everyone posting "3/12" continuation threads?

      Either the limit is a good idea, and nobody should post multi-part toots, or its a dumb idea, and should be retired (in favor of a ~6k post limit). One or the other. Cut the crap, already.

      I'd 100x rather see long posts shortened with a "See more" button than yet another toot that ends with "1/" ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

      Forcing people to create threads just to get their thought across is terrible UX, and I'm tired of being diplomatic about it.
