Okay, this is possibly going to be controversial in some quarters, but it has to be said for the good of the Fediverse:

Mastodon.social is not a good way to join Mastodon. If you're already on mastodon.social, you might want to move your account to another server. I've done an article about this topic at:

If you want to move your account, there's a complete step-by-step guide to how to do it here:

@FediTips With all due respect...

Your main argument seems to be a fear that if offered a lot of money, that someone running a huge instance like mastodon.social will eagerly sell it if a large enough offer comes up.

My question to you is, what constitutes a "large instance"? Is there an exact number and if so, do you believe that all instances should be capped at that number and no longer allowed to accept new users?

Thanks.

@FediTips @colin @xepher @FinchHaven @mrfunkedude It's possible to be kind and respect someone you disagree with. I think that's something that is very lacking in today's climate.

Thank you for the kind words.

Due to losing control of our Matrix channel, we are officially moving over to Discord for now.

It's a shame, but we can't properly moderate our Matrix, so we can no longer recommend it.

@pixelfed What happened? You can’t dump this on us without the story! Cmon!

Do you have any questions about using Mastodon and the rest of the Fediverse?

Ask me in the replies, or by @-ing me or by DMing me, and I'll try to find you some answers.

Don't worry if the question seems too simple, it's fine to ask about anything!

@FediTips What do you call a bunch of people on Mastodon who like to debate a lot? 😏

Push Notifications have been added to @loops

I have some clever onboarding and networking features in development, it will be a very fun and eventful weekend I think

Mrfunkedude , 2 months ago

@dansup @loops I'm withholding judgment until the final app comes out, but I have a lot of questions.

What will discovery be like?

How will you handle the server load?

Is this just going to be vertical PeerTube?

How will you search between instances?

Will there be Public/Federated/Home timelines?

I'm looking forward to seeing the results!

Simple pricing, it's free. ✨

@dansup Ok. But how free is it if I pay yearly?

I wonder how many people have petitioned their email provider to defederate with Google or any other email provider who's record is questionable?

Mrfunkedude OP , 3 months ago

@flockofnazguls A point? What? Who? Me?

Naaahhh.

Never trust a man with a knife scar next to his dick.

@RolloTreadway Good point.

@FediTips Have you checked out Piefed yet and what are your thoughts on it?

Mrfunkedude OP , 5 months ago

@FediTips I created an account to check it out. I like the layout and it works well.

I'm interested to see your review.

The half-baked philosophical conundrum that keeps me up at night most often is simply: why is my consciousness limited to me in particular? Why am I not everyone? Or everything? or nobody? Or you? Or an ant? Or an ant colony? How did I find myself in this particular stream and what is the nature of the boarders that keep me within it?

This idea generally frustrates and freaks me out and I doubt there is a sensible answer, I doubt it's productive to think about, but I worry on it over and over.

Mrfunkedude , 5 months ago

@futurebird This idea is commonly known as "The Egg". Here's a video talking about it...

On my way to the ER. My jaw won't close and I think I have a lump.

Mrfunkedude OP , 5 months ago

Waiting for the results from imaging.

Look. They put a tracker on me.

Mrfunkedude OP , 5 months ago

All done. On my way home. they prescribe me muscle relaxers and painkillers. They want me to keep an eye on my lymph nodes for a week. i’m glad it wasn’t something worse
