incidentally every one so far has been from mastodon.social so...folks, you're gonna have to federate out at some point

interesting, been seeing a lot of complaints of the federated timeline becoming unreadable, but it's still pretty manageable / good content here.

so...find yourself a good smallish instance, i guess?

And.... here we go! The main Mastodon Network Monitoring dashboard now features a #realtime #worldmap of #mastodon users!

let's learn some japanese phrases!

Mastodonへようこそ!
Mastodon-e youkoso!
Welcome to Mastodon!

はじめまして!
Hajimemashite!
Nice to meet you! [for the first time]

よろしくお願いします!
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
Nice to meet you! [Please treat me well!]

一緒にパオりましょう!
Issho ni paorimashou!
Let's toot together!

There are a lot of new Mastodon instances now than there were this time last week.

A gentle reminder to the fledgling #Mastodon #admins to sign up for the mailing list, so you can stay abreast of releases, instance-breaking bugs, and community issues.

And just chill out with your fellow Mastodon admins.

i think part of the reason i'm sticking with masto as opposed to when i tried out app.net is the people who were here when i got started

adn was full of techie startupy people and the conversation wasn't really one i was interested in joining

masto was full of queer people and furries and the conversation (while still often about the service itself) was a bunch of quirky memeing that i wanted to stick around for

and that's why i'm still here

Current level of video game incompetence: I died in the prologue of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (on NDS).

There should be competitions for people who like to play but are terrible at it, maybe I could finally achieve something in my life... :<

Oh boy, I got an alt on Oulipo and it's already so much fun!

Some Japanese call Mastodon as "鱒丼",That means bowl of rice topped with trout sashimi.
It's because "鱒丼" is pronounced "masudon" and Japanese pronunciation is similar to Mastodon.

*puts down The Big Book Of French Swears and picks up The Big Book of Japanese Swears*

it's a new era

Instagramming on Mastodon, 4/many

Today, the Scottish passion for crenellations! And no, it's not just on castles and battlements and what not...

Appli android Mastodon:

J'aime beaucoup TootyFruity :
play.google.com/store/apps/det
- multicompte
- design frais
- bonne gestion des statuts (DM, unlisted…)

Particularité UX: le détail d'un toot se fait en "slidant", pas par double-tap. C'est un peu déconcertant au début mais on s'y fait.

#MastodonEntraide

remember when somebody said this free opensource community service should be monetized so it would be better?

man i love good comedy

non urgent aesthetical requests:
* a settings dialog that mirrors tweetdeck's so that you dont have to leave the One Big Page With All The Stuff would be nice
* being able to position + crop avatars and headers would be cool
* have expanded statuses open in the column you expanded them in
* actually just a general "more column customization would be nice"

there's so many mastodon bots for things that could be just features built in
statsbot: just put it on a page at /about/stats
followbots: all you need is to have simple exporting and importing lists of federated users and for large instances to export lists
captain haddock: what you should do i[pulled off stage by security before i can finish thought] NOT AGAIN

When you design a CoC for your #Mastodon or #GNUSocial instance, remember that you want enough strictness to:

- Kick ESR off if he shows up
- Aggressively ban botters & 4chan
- Shut up the nazi-brigade when they come
- Protect your users from abusive third parties.

Since there are newbies filtering in, this is a good time to mention that we have a Code of Conduct: toot.cafe/about/more

And I have a getting started guide here: toot.cafe/@nolan/13056

If you see a remote or local account that looks dodgy, report it using ≡ (hamburger menu), then "Report." The current moderators are @ohhoe and me; more will be added.
