And explore: https://social.network.europa.eu/explore
@CPhase Heh, I guess you could improve it by making it less USA-centric? :D
@fi Actually, I think it's a neat feature. That way you can spread someone's word without spamming them with notifications that you quoted them. Especially when it's public service announcement-type posts, for example, like I've done with some of my Mastodon-related toots.
@fi In that case, welcome to Qoto! ;)
@fi The little caveat is that it won't notify the one whose toot you quoted. You'd still have to tag them seperately if you want them to know you quoted it!
@fi Ah yeah, an added feature. It's indeed useful! I make use of it to expose another toot which wouldn't be as visible with a boost (because the latter only gets shown to your followers).
@LittleTimmy My bro moved to Spain a few months ago and he's definitely embracing the solar energy. He has to because his new home's rural enough that he's not connected to the electricity grid. ;) But he's recently bought some more panels and installed them. They're having a nice amount of power now with big batteries! I think they could easily survive 5 days of rainy weather, for example.
@fi Oh well, you've got the 'get rid of twitter' part down pat now! ;) The rest might differ per instance.
@kmontenegro Ahhhh! Thanks!
@kmontenegro Huh, what does ICE mean there? I only know it as the highspeed German trains.
@geekmomprojects A way to aid with exposing exceptional content is to boost it, and if you follow more people they might boost (what they think is) exceptional content as well!
@realcaseyrollins Possibly? I never go to The Verge so... heh.
@realcaseyrollins It's the largest tech site in my country so if it gets covered there it becomes a big deal. :D
@realcaseyrollins Lol, no. A Dutch tech news site that I frequent often at https://tweakers.net ;)
@realcaseyrollins I just saw. :D Got covered in our tech news site too, woot!
And the EU has a PeerTube department as well!

Whoa, the European Union is joining the Fediverse!

@realcaseyrollins Oh neat! Got a link to more information about it?
Main account is now on @trinsec
I've resigned as moderator on Qoto.org since 29-aug-2023.
This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
