Who said scientists cant be poets?
So happy.
I'll get it with a “chocolat”.

Pourquoi pas?
Of course I do feel that 💖 beating in french.
Mais de temps en temps, ça pourrait être cool.
Cela ferait votre 4ème langue n'est-ce pas?
Are you talking about the letters we had in PM?

And on that sense, I drop a mention to my most popular Blog page so far -- take a look when you have a chance, or bookmark it. There is a section in the second part where I review and describe some of the instances I had accounts at the time. mastodon.social is included.

Hi Casey,
That is exactly what you talked to me about a while back.
I realize actually I am not using the public timelines at all. Maybe a good thing for me.
I can get to know people slowly thus the quality prevails on quantity.

@design_RG @hansw @globcoco Yeah; for me, joining an instance with a good community, finding good locals to follow, and following people who engage with them has helped keep my timeline busy without a whole bunch of unwanted content like porn popping in my feeds. I very rarely use the Public Timelines anymore, save at night when I'm looking for new users who are across the globe.
That is really what made me be really happy about it (a good group, being accepted...)
If some people like Paul have mixed feeling about it just because of what is going on in the instance, the need is really to educate on the instances to avoid losing so many cool people!
Hence what you do! This is so important!

Yes, in considering online communities, the platform being used is important and can affect things tremendously, but the people themselves, the interactions, it is the most important part.
Finding a good group, which we feel identified with, and being accepted is so rewarding.
The cool kids are not in mastodon anymore.
Yes that is what I heard about Mastodon.social. I actually think you mentioned it @design_RG yourself.
So for so many reason, I understand that this is not the place I'd like to go.
Smaller ones suits me best. And I know that I won't go there.
Thanks to the *extensive* fedireports that you made Yann, I feel we can find our way.
Btw, it was weird but the morning I searched #nomad and I got some weird toots with some porn too...

Much on a user's experience depends on the instance they live in. I am very happy I selected Qoto as my first one -- based on the small amount of info displayed about each in the joinmastodon.org pages.
Turned out well, and I am still here, active and putting time, effort and love into this. But I have also kept an open eye, curiosity and have been exploring, scouting on the vastness of fedi.
There's more, lots more, and I enjoy the discovery as much as going for long walks in an European city for the first time.
No maps is my usual approach, serendipity is lovely. I end up tired but so satisfied with the experiences I find.
Mastodon.social is the Twitter of mastoworld.
If I had joined there as my first instance, I wouldn't have stayed for 3 days even, I imagine.
I do have an account there, and there's a purpose for it -- but it's minimal in the day to day operations for me.
#FediReporter on the beat, #rgxJournal logged.
I see myself right in there receiving your newsletter.
Don't have the french doors yet... just the french part though. Nearly there.😋
Do I need to re-subscribe to your new newsletter?
Thanks for making it fun. Very inspiring!
Long post
No words 😋 but 😘 🤗 💖

Merci, mon amie,
I was touched right from the beginning of reading your post above. A letter to a friend, is what it is, and I love writing letters. Long and rich, they are great vehicles for expression.
You are so sensitive, it's wonderful -- the Title is indeed a powerful one, and it came to me as I wrote the whole piece. Right here, right in the Toot editor, not the most comfortable place.
Unlike my beloved full Black screen, crisp white text on foreground that is the Write.freely composing screen. They got it so right, it's amazing.
The thoughts on that piece, written free form, unedited, here as a response, they flowed as well. I knew as I wrote that this was a nice one, and that it would become a Blog page.
The most important and beloved part of my work, these Web Magazines of mine. For writing, for idea development and promotion, for technical and educational purposes.
And why not, to open my heart and give friends a peek.
I am happy to read your response, and sincerely thank you for it. I know it's not an easy task, as it requires focused effort and a desire to communicate in writing what is sensed emotionally, we need to find the words to explain it. But it was greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Back to yesterday's post, we both agree the title evokes powerful images.
The body of the text below was ready, as mentioned.
But the introductory part which was needed for context setting, that I am also quite happy with -- as it started slowly and soon had a heart and value on its own right.
I did visit and read you About Me page at write.as last night, nice work on it, Coralie! And found some more links (with more advanced MarkDown teachings) which I could use too.
Merci,
Y.
Hello Paul,
I've used for a while Diaspora and yes I let it go too not finding what was in it nourishing at all.
I don't know of hubzilla.
Why do you have mixed feeling about Mastodon?
@design_RG has tooted extensively about his preferences and went above Mastodon.
Do you feel the same way or is it something else?
Well i'm afraid that when you go into it there'll be a LOT more tabs open...😅
Est-ce que tu fais ton café à l'ancienne ? 
Got it chief! 😉
