Hey, uhm, because I'm hearing that a lot of ppl would feel more yay about possibly joining mastodon if a "move account to different instance" feature existed (that included toots and maybe followers)…

what is the status on that? Last time I saw it discussed the likelyhood of it happening seemed to be "never ever", is that still the case?

#Introduction

I've been using Mastodon for awhile over at @chaognostica@witches.town.

I like
#comics especially YA ones written by and focused on women/girls

#writing which I do both for fun and occasionally for money as a freelancer. But mostly #blogging

#witchraft / #paganism / #polytheism / #chaosmagick / #loki

#autistic self-advocacy and general sharing/learning

Internet communities and communication

#queer / #asexual / #non-binary / #panromantic / #polyamory

Trying to play my #ukelele

lets make #urbansketching a thing here: https://witches.town/media/GxPk-1d-7JTwvNV0c1A https://witches.town/media/2T02Wj5pk33BpgqFtAY https://witches.town/media/7Uk_V85SkjJKKKzseCM

I put these calls out every so often so here goes:

If you're working on an inclusive game (something with POC/LGBTQ/female characters/relevant themes) please reach out to me, I would love to hear about it!

I can't guarantee coverage and I'm generally very busy but I'm always down to hear about new, inclusive things :)

j'habite au québec et j'ai besoin d'aide pour corriger un problème aux hormones. mon niveau d'oestradiol ne monte plus que 136 pmol/L (~37 pg/mL) malgré 6 mg de l'estrace sublingual chaque jour. j'ai eu du mal à y augmenter l'oestradiol depuis 2016. mon médecin ne sait pas la cause du problème. mes choix sont de continuer avec les comprimés, de commencer les patches ou de commencer les injections (qui ne sont pas couvertes par l'assurance maladie et - selon mon médecin - coûtent 50$ chaque semaine). est-ce qu'il y a quelqu'un-e qui peut m'aider?

MASTODON BEGINNER USER GUIDE:

write things and toot them

Latinx Geeks also has two main hashtags which will hopefully find their way into Tooter as well
#InvisibleLatinx and #LatinxsinSpace

More reasons to switch
• Emoji: Flagship has a few custom emoji, but many instances have their own unique set, and sometimes it's quite large!
• Rules: The mastodon.social moderator team is pretty top notch and their rules are pretty reasonable, but maybe you want something more restrictive, or less restrictive.

Plenty of people are advertising instances to switch to, but why should you switch? Here are some reasons:
• Community: Some focus on a certain topic. With those, the "local" timeline is useful to talk about that topic.
• Theme: Some have custom theming or language tweaks that might be fun.
• Performance: Flagship mastodon.social is slow sometimes! Even if you don't notice it might be taking a while for your statuses to propagate.
• Tweaks: Some have extra customizations, like the doodle pad.

Is there a thing that collects hashtag search results from, say, every instance known to instances.social (or any other large-ish list)?

Otherwise sharing links to hashtag-y things with none-mastodon people is often either "here's mastodon social, i'd rather not always link to that, but it knows the most toots" or "here are 5 links to the results on some smaller instances, please click them all"

The blogosphere suddenly became aware of the existence of Intel ME "spying at you" to paraphrase some catchy titles. If some authors seem to discover that technology, the truth is it is here for almost 10 years!

So, in order for you to make your own educated opinion, I tried to summarize the facts concerning Intel ME and the current state of the community knowledge about that technology.

Lets decentralize a little.

new folks:

please remember to make heavy use of CWs

they are there because they are useful to reduce harm for folks

instead of being forced to read a post in order to determine if they want to interact with its contents or not (which is not a choice), you can know what the post is about and choose whether it's worth engaging that or not

I want mastodon to have a timed mute feature.
