OK #MastodonAPI gurus.

I can use postman to update my status using the parameters specified by the spec but get a 404 when I use curl:
curl https://qoto.org/api/v1/statuses -H 'Authorization: Bearer myAccessToken' -F 'status= Testing Mastodon's API by updating my status'

Reminder that a lot of people just want to hang out with other goblins in their corner of the fediverse, and don't want to hear about what's going on at the other website. You can use a CW for Twitter like a subject line so they can skim past your post instead of seeing it in their feed when someone else boosts it.

Lots of people will click to see through the warning because they want juicy gossip and drama. You don't really need to worry about its "reach".

Others still will simply choose the account option which automatically expands content warnings.

We believe that India deserves a better data protection law. Hence, it is vital for *YOU* to engage on it! Share this thread?We will soon publish a explainer & engagement guide. Even here we express concern on the lack of transparency. 10/10

if you have kids: allow them to skip school to catch up on sleep

if you're an adult: allow yourself to take sick days to catch up on sleep (I know it's not always possible but it SHOULD BE because it is NECESSARY)

if you can't get the sleep you need at night: allow yourself to take copious naps

if you find yourself pushed to the fringes of society by unusual sleep needs or patterns: it's not your fault. I shall talk about temporal accessibility another time

this is, once again, a case of the medical establishment reinforcing social stigma against normal physiological variations.

how many doctors tell you to just go to sleep earlier and tell you that sleeping late is unhealthy? this is just the same bullshit as always.

I'm here to tell you that your body knows what it needs, and if you listen to your body's signals and give it the amount of sleep it needs at the time when it needs it, you're doing everything right.

so since I am here now, allow me to do some SLEEP PROPAGANDA

SLEEP IS GOOD

SLEEP IS IMPORTANT

SLEEP IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY EDUCATION OR JOB

and the fact that we are forced to compromise on sleep in order to fulfill duties to capitalism is an immense injustice and health risk.

lack of sleep obviously increases stress levels and therefore the risk for all kinds of diseases, but it also damages your brain on a cellular level because SLEEP MAINTAINS THE INTEGRITY OF YOUR BRAIN.

Hey there!

Project Encephalon is now on Mastodon 😎

We are an international, trainee-led, #nonprofit organization for #neuroscience enthusiasts. We regularly conduct various academic and non-academic neuroscience-related activities while diversity and inclusivity are at the very core. Hence, we have something for every neuroscience enthusiast.

We're a diverse group of students and professionals, all united by a common passion for neuroscience. No matter your background or level of experience, we have a place for you!

Catch a glimpse of our recently published magazine- Neuroletter, containing new articles, comics, and podcasts, by young trainees, for everyone!

Follow the link: https://www.projectencephalon.org/neuroletter.

is it possible to add alt text to header and profile images for my mastodon and pixelfed profiles? I'm guessing not? #accessibility #mastodon #pixelfed

@freemo that's another reason why I like this instance. Instances should not be responsible for blocking. Individual USERS should be responsible for blocking stuff that they don't want to see.

Let me know if you guys want a tutorial on how to paint your own space shirt!! I took little videos while painting this shirt 💜🌌

Everyone please be aware that the service we used to use that provided tickers went down and doesnt plan to go back up.. This unfortunately slows down the default theme.

As such I switched the default theme to the no-ticket theme and this works just fine. However im not sure it will help for people already signed up on the server.

To fix the problem please go intto your preferences and change the theme to the no-ticket theme.

An advantage of mastodon is the "three social networks" that you get. You get your time line that is tailored by yourself. You get the local timeline, made by people with similar interests. And the federated time line with all the different opinions.

What I love about #masto is that I've discovered more artists, photographers, writers, poets, historians, archaeologists, heritage experts etc. in the last five days than I have in 10+ years on all the other platforms combined thanks to all the introductions and sharing going on. I always felt that social media was an obligatory part of the job, now it feels like a place to discover a creative world beyond my own field.
