@Shine_McShine oye mola esto de la migración, para mi no ha cambiado nada y me sigue llegando todo perfecto. Y me ha servido para saber que te llamas Ernest, para mi llevas siendo Shine desde hace años que te encontré por twitter

@lukecao @WhatYouMcCallit I agree with you and find instances of Mastodon a very interesting approach to social networks. I’ve already read here ideas to use them in very interesting ways, such as orgs creating their own instances and giving accounts to members of it (such us journalists, government agencies and so on), which will be the ultimate verification system. You can follow those instances to see all content from let’s say the WSJ, Nature, your government and so on or if you hate certain publishers you can ban the instance and not have to see their news show up in your timelines.

@lukecao yeah, I think the federation of mastodon is its strong point and weakness. It will scare some that look for the simplicity a single instance like twitter has, but it provides amazing tools to make every server different, with a set of rules and tools to make it the instance you want to stay in. Following servers, banning others and keeping another account for a specialized server such as a TTRPG, gaming, music and so on makes Mastodon different enough that it can create its own path and be strong enough to survive and thrive on the twitter demise and current massive migration.

@lukecao i mean I started now with all the twitter migration, but I wasn’t really using twitter anymore. I guess it’s a bit of curiosity and to see how this shapes in the coming weeks/months. I don’t think it will be the new twitter, and I personally think it shouldn’t be. It should become its own thing and shape into something new that people would love. Otherwise, Twitter will (if it survives this chaos) welcome back all the migrants once the dust settles and doesn’t disappears, and Mastodon will slowly become less and less relevant.

Es lo primero que pensé sobre los servidores federados. Que cada org o compañía pueda abrir su instancia y dar una cuenta a cada trabajador es un sistema perfecto para controlar la verificación y el funcionamiento de tu instancia. Y el hecho de que hay servidores que te permiten suscribirte a otra instancia y recibir todos sus toots en una lista es genial para poder seguir todo lo que publique un medio u organización. Me parece genial!

@skrlet13 le uno a la recomendación de Metatext. La aplicación oficial solo sirve para abrirla, cerrarla y borrarla.

En el fondo, por mucho que alaben el nuevo twitter y el “parangón de Libertad de expresión” que Elon Musk les promete, sin su troleo se aburren y desaparecen en el olvido. No buscan la libertad de expresión, solo buscan pasar el rato sintiéndose importantes porque soltando una chorrada del nivel “vete a cuba” se piensan que te han metido un zasca. Dales unas semanas y estarán todos por aquí.

@Shine_McShine Bretonianos!
Madre mía, si yo enseñara los míos pintados hace ya más de 20 años cuando todavía era un chavalín…

So it’s time for me too to toot a “Hello World!”

I’m a scientist at Stanford working on cell biology, cell competition and cancer, but I love to lurk all sides of science and learn a bit of everything. Looking forward to learning more about Mastodon and all of you!
