I think we don't talk enough how good @freemo has done for this instance. The policy of not blocking almost everything, the word limits, the discussions we have here.... Everything is pretty good. I spent some time in another Instance. But frankly, QOTO seemed much more polished in almost every way. Atleast to me.

Another nice fediverse-enhancing habit that I enjoy is:

1) When you make a public post, use a hashtag.

2) Immediately click the hashtag.

3) Boost something cool and recent from that hashtag.

If for some reason the boost button doesn't work:

1) Right-click on the timestamp.

2) Click "copy link address" or similar.

3) Paste the URL into your Mastodon search box and press enter.

4) Boost.

This helps because everything you boost gets added to your own instance's federated timeline, and the federated timelines of everyone who follows you.

More importantly, it also adds those boosts to hashtag searches, making it easier for people to find posts about their interests using hashtag searches on their own instances.

Spreading the good stuff around the fediverse helps everything to interlink and keeps the timelines and Home feeds organically full, varied and busy.

Mastodon is prone to bubbles.

When you look for new people to follow you check the public timelines, which by design mostly contains people already followed by people on your instance. It's hard to break out of that.

Here's what you do.

1) Go to mastodon.social/tags/YourTagHe but change the last bit to a hashtag of your choosing.

2) Click boost on all the cool stuff.

Also, use hashtags in your own posts and boost cool stuff with gay abandon!

"6 killed in New Jersey gunbattle, including police officer
JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Six people, including a police officer and three bystanders, were killed in a furious gunbattle Tuesday that filled the streets of Jersey City with the sound of heavy fire for hours, authorities said. "

Is there such a thing as Rate-My-Instance ? 

Idea, Fediverse.

Is there such a thing as RateMyInstance ??

Searched for a hashtag and did not find one. I think we users could take this and provide feedback, ideas to others of what our home instances are like.

The Good, the Bad, the Ugly parts even. Just like the Spaghetti Western. 😉

What you all out there think? This could be a grass roots started thing.

is needed!

Some Lovely Linux desktops I have seen. 

I came across a series of desktop snapshots taken by a techie user at another instance.

** Full post, more versions on Discourse : discourse.qoto.org/t/some-pret

They are quite interesting, I am posting here a picture of my favourite one.

With her on the desktop it would become even harder to pry me away from my laptop, lol.

/me wishes for an AI like "Her" (2013 film)...

Not too many users, but a verbose group. Another instance I hang out at. :thumbsup_hmn_g1:

Adding a second screenshot, Pinafore is just so delightful as a client. Look at the Image description box, to assist our visually impaired users. :love_parrot:

@nolan It does not have this problem with another instance I also use it, and supports 10,000 chars. They are running Glitch-soc there, which seems to communicate the limit to Pinafore fine.

Man, I love Pinafore! What a nice and FAST client...

If I could only get it to allow me more than 500 characters... Pity it right now shows 356 chars left.

when this account at Qoto allows up to 65,000 characters. I had tried it weeks ago, it became my fave with it's speed and sleek interface.

But I am verbose, and neeeed the extra characters.

@nolan , any suggestions? Sorry to bother you.

How cool is an op sys with a * Cat * command? 😺

Curator is awesome as is that instance. If you like home grown art they are the person to follow and the instance to check out!

@design_RG I think it could be a useful metric on the various mastodon instance indexes, get a feel for the culture of an instance before making an account.
