Space Karen should eat his heart out, thanks to him mastodon is better than ever. 😂
Just enabled search on my public toots in the settings on Fosstodon.

Good #Rules of thumb for #Toots #Posts
(Condensed from "Please Don't Judas Me" a song by the Scottish hard rock band #Nazareth)
Please DON'T:
- Judas
- blacklist
- analyze
- sacrifice
- chastise
- despise
- categorize
- head shrink
- debase
- annihilate
- number
- anger
- frustrate
- manipulate
ME
Please DO:
treat me as you'd like to be treated
leave me as you'd wish to find me

All of us have a lot of #Toots that got a lot of #Likes and #Boosts, but , honestly, didn't really deserve them
And we all have a lot of toots we are proud of, but that got zero likes and boosts
Among your orphans, what is your fav ?

As @zachnfine was writing, one first fix would be that #FollowersOnly #toots should NOT be visible to nonfollowers mentioned in the toot. To take an email comparison, it forbids the To:victim BCC:mycrowd type of #harassment. And this can be implemented on the "good #server".
Then there are the blocking mechanism issues which are multi server issues, more complex...

@ThePlant #hashtags, if people #hashtagged all the #nouns (and some #verbs) in their #toots #everything #would #be #more #discoverable
and then you'd just follow the hashtags you like
Sometimes I scroll through the timelines on Mastodon, and I see so many #toots I can't figure out what are you all even talking about... 😅
Many toots here feel like comments out of context. And when I tap on one to hopefully see some context, very often there is none, that's the OP.
Can we have an option to set Trending Posts by topic on #Mastodon?
I only want to see #toots that gained traction on the #fediverse for a certain category, such as tech, music, art.

@PapaFriki A mí lo que me sale es esto en todos los clientes que he probado. Creo que hay algún límite en el número de #toots que se pueden cargar de una vez a través del #API.

#Toots & The Maytals werden auf #Mastodon übrigens viel zu wenig gewürdigt.

Over there on algorithm-driven social platforms I thought I sucked at #hashtagging because my posts went largely ignored. Mastodon has taught me that I probably suck at creating content.

Gerne möchte ich eine #Medien-Erfahrung mit Euch teilen & fragen, ob sie nachvollziehbar oder gar „korrekt“ ist. #Tweets auf #TwitterX erlebte ich als „kompetitiv“: Wir Nutzende wetteiferten gegeneinander um die #Aufmerksamkeit, um Werbeeinnahmen zu generieren. #Toots auf #Mastodon erlebe ich dagegen als „kooperativ“ - als Beiträge, um das #Fediversum mit Leben zu füllen. Hier traue ich mich sogar, über die #Wasserkrise zu informieren - und erfahre kaum Häme dafür. 🤔💧📚 https://blumeundince.podigee.io/3-wasserkrisehafermilch

On #Mastodon and in the #Fediverse you are your own #socialmedia #algorithm; hence, #hashtag your #toots liberally and do not forget to #boost others #toots. #TwitterMigration #Tips #Feditips

Question for more experienced mastodon users:
How does one post a series of messages which are related to each other ? Usually they are numbered. Is there an accepted etiquette for this on the network?
@compi federation on the most basic level is strictly defined by follows. So anyone who follows someone from your #instance, has that person's #toots federated on their home instance. Since you are on your own server, this is more prevalent because if other users were on your server, your server would get federated more easily and more servers would see your toots faster.
#hashtags are the only searchable thing on #mastodon without elasticsearch which allows you to search your own toots or toots you were mentioned in. BUT your instance can only see the hashtags from toots that your server is federated with.
I hope this clears some things up.

Breaking news: #Left leaning #liberals find a higher purpose through calling #AntiRacism activists #trolls for countering #MicroAggresive #toots, #tweets, #spouts, etc.
I’ve definitely hit the temporal follow horizon on #Mastodon. That’s where a steady thoughtful encountering of each of your #toots in my Home page no longer leads to a refresh pull for more toots. The timeout hits and enough toots fill that ^^It never ends^^ it may slow down during the night in North America, but even still. Even. Still. If you were a novelty junkie, this is the point at which you’d reach for Kleenex.
It occurred to me why finding interesting people to #follow can be hard.
I look at the popular #toots that have been boosted a lot and often they don't interest me. And often it's the same people on the explore tab.
I have #niche tastes, see? And anything that gets a lot of #boosts is less likely to be niche.
That is all.
Maybe we should all do that follow Friday thing more.
I almost always #translate #toots that are in a #language other than #English (I'm not even #bilingual 😢😖). I spend a lot of time on the #Explore tab, where they appear pretty frequently and if they're there then I reckon it's important enough to find out what it says.
How often will you take the time to translate a toot to find out what it says?
(boosting helps!)

Quick question about the #fediverse :
Is #boosting a lot bad here? Will people discard my profile as not interesting if I #boost a lot of #toots regarding my interests? It's important to me to #share content but I know doing that too much is sometimes badly seen on some platforms.
#feditips #mastodontips
Welcome everyone (re)joining #mastodon!
Reminder: do _not_ subscribe to @mapcomplete@botsin.space as it toots out three messages everyday with statistics and pictures of contributions to #OpenStreetMap
Of course, those three daily #toots will be subtracted from your daily #TootLimit, leaving only 997 other toots to interact with!*
(* The exact number might change in the future, depending on the mood of #elonMusk)
:deadbird:
Welcome everyone just joining.
Whatever brought you here the truth is this does not work like #twitter .
Discovery here works two ways.
You add #hashtags in your #toots so others can search & follow them.
And you search and follow hashtags you like.
Some mastodon servers have text search but most of us don’t have that luxury.
Other than that mastodon will not push any traffic to your home timeline.
Happy tooting.
Sorry.
The first post in this convo that I can see in #toots! is David's: https://mastodon.world/@davidho/110623610771558930.
Was there another before that?
But great if people think in this direction independently of each other. 😀
@GrimmReality Hum, I thought the total hate tweets were a bird thing. :(
#Toots are usually constructive here.
No thanks / grim avatar. Bill
Is anyone else on mastodon.social or elsewhere on the Fediverse not getting all their notifications about mentions?
I've noticed on my most recent posts that I don't get notified about people's commenting unless I go back and click on my post, or happen to see them in my timeline. I wonder how long that's been going on?
#Fediverse #Mastodon #Toots #Notifications #MastodonProblems
My favourite thing about living in the port part of my city is that late at night when it gets nice and quiet I can hear boat toots.
Was ja wirklich nützlich wäre in der timeline, dass man toots, die man schon in der timeline hat, nicht mehr angezeigt werden, wenn sie durch jemanden geteilt werden. Mich verwirrt das mehr als ich eh schon bin... :mastoinnocent:
It would be useful in my timeline, if toots will not appear again in my timeline if they are shared again by someone else. This confuses me even more than I am... :mastoinnocent:

I think we are forgetting that on Mastodon #hashtags are king.
Change practice; open or follow tabs based on hashtags searches & one can see all #toots that have it.
We had Stockholm syndrome by the likes of #twitter where we are made to do things a certain way.
Once you understand & use hashtags search becomes useful.
Expecting perfection from #mastodon is wishful thinking.
Toots having a #hashtag from allowed server can be found via search & follow.
Tootfinder is a third party opt-in site that lets you search public toots. Why not? https://tootfinder.ch/ #toots #search #TootFinder

We need to come together and make our voices heard. We can make the #Fediverse a #SafeSpaceForMuslims, but we need to put in some work.
Demand better #moderation of #Islamophobic #toots and #instances. Call out #admins for #Islamophobia as soon as you see it.
Contrary to what you may be told, this is NOT “dogpiling.” #Bigotry has NO place here. Fight back. Use your voice.
I wrote a tiny PHP tool to backup (your own?) Mastodon posts (“toots”) to a SQLite database. It doesn’t have a UI to browse them yet, but I feel better knowing that in case an instance disappears, my posts are not entirely gone.
Can be automated eg. via cron.

Yes, but as discussed in the last couple of days, for some of us, bringing their #toots with them is a must-have.
As #GDPDR requires only that I can download my stuff, for me, this is a no-go.
We had a small discussion group, and one of our our participants went back to to his admin why important them is not a standard feature.
He came back with the answer that this is for liability reasons.
Summary: there is no difference between importing older #toots to s.o...
:fediverse:
The Challenge with :deadbird: other-site mindset:
It is great if people come from other social media sites to Mastadon. 🙂
Please dont think this is like the other one.
Please be open to re-learn.
Yes there is a way to engage with users here, but it comes gradually.
I have learnt to engage with others here & still learning, but didnt happen on day one.
Think of it this way; we all had Stockholm syndrome; we need to re-learn how to use this now.
:fediverse:
Tips to get through Mastodon toots:
1 - I turn off Boosts & replies in my home feed.
2 - Spend about 40 minutes once a day to go through all of the feed once.
3 - Usually skip the toots that dont have a headline or main sentence starting the para describing it(No CW required).
4 - Relatively shorter toots grab my attention.
5 - At this point I am getting most of the news from Mastodon as I follow BBC, Hacker News etc here.
There is another option:
Do what you do anyplace else:
Scrolling, "scanning", and
selective reading.
Whereas I can see in the fraction of a second if a #toot interests me, it might take me considerably longer to decipher such a CW ("USpol" is easy enough, but I still wonder about quite a few, having read 1000's of #toots).
I can see the point for content that might really upset a significant number of users.
However, I don’t need a "reading nanny", so to speak.

Here is some worthwhile #FediHelp for #Fediverse-#newbies #NewToMastodon:
https://masto.ai/@broximar/109797846815697059
9. Follow MANY and follow the #hashtags (!!!) that interest you, as there is no algorithm.
10. Follow @feditips
11. Follow back after vetting of #posts and #bios.
12. Post interesting #toots.
13. Always reply to serious answers.
14. Boost posts of (avid) followers but generally generously #AAB--#AlwaysBeBoosting.

@joelnet yes they do.
As you know there is no algo on mastodon to promote your content, hence the only other thing is hashtags
People search for them & when they do they will find your toots.
I for example have various tabs open at all times that are searches I have pinned in my view, so new content based on these hashtags pops up as soon as someone adds them to their toots.
You can also follow hashtags, so any toots with them show up in your feed.
Billy don't be a #hero, #tune into Anthony Unleashed instead. From 9 AM US Eastern, or 9 Pm, we will run through the jungle, being chased by Tammy because I didn't want to do any ballroom dancing. If, one of these days I'm in a New York state of mind, I'll rip it up, and play a song for Guy. We say hello, and then goodbye, but don't pity me, I'm going to hold on to the night. Also, can't you see, in my house, I'm having a lot of fun writing these #toots? #FloydOnFriday #MushroomFM
@JesseSkinner I agree that is a challenge, wonder how that can be resolved.
As I was looking at people I follow I could see I havent seen alot of their #toots its difficult to catch up with everyone.
If only there was a separate timeline for personal #toots vs #boost ed toots.
