Uh...112-113%?

@ceoln I just answered that question. ;) Qoto offers this feature.

@ceoln Oh Qoto has this feature in the web interface where you can explore another instance's timeline.

You could use it to explore what the general conversations over there are like. That way you can determine whether the whole instance is worth blocking.

@ceoln Oh yes, you can SAFELY block all of poa.st in my opinion.

@Yasha Yeah, it definitely did succeed!

I wonder how that egg will be digested. Will the shell succumb to the acids in the stomach and then just... collapse?

@Yasha Oh man, that little snake sure was trying!

@LauLauThom Wonder if it can be renamed to 'tootorial' later? ;)

@dosnostalgic Good luck and be careful!

Maybe it helps if you carry around a white stick with a red tip.. ;)

@frayoshi

Following is a standard Mastodon feature, you follow as usual just like you'd do on Twitter. The followed person gets notified. Or if it needs approval, needs to approve before you can actually follow.

Subscribe doesn't notify the person, doesn't need approval, and you can only see their public toots. You won't see their follower-only posts. It's a Qoto-specific feature.

@revjameshandley Good luck with your project then! :) I'm curious how it'll pan out!

@revjameshandley Welcome to Qoto!

Oh I hope that the Raspberry Pi can handle this, Mastodon is a very heavy piece of software. ;)

You could look for other microblogging platforms that can federate, might be lighter. Pleroma is very popular for this.

@freemo

Yeah, there have been a handful of other people wondering with the official app, why things won't work out well.

I always recommend either the web interface, or when still wanting an app, Tusky (or Fedilab) would be fine alternatives but without being able to use the extra features.

@freemo

And, ironically, it seems to be the official Mastodon app that is the most problematic.

@kimura_cl

@kimura_cl Some people have reported the official App not working nicely with Qoto.

Qoto is running on a modified Mastodon instance with extra features added (check the About page to see more details).

As a result, some apps won't work nicely with Qoto, and most apps are made for default Mastodon meaning you'll lose out on those extra features.

I'd suggest to use the mobile web interface, and just pin the site to your home screen. The web interface is very very mobile friendly.

If you still would like to use an app, people have reported Tusky to be working fine enough with Qoto. The official apps gave quite a few problems as you can see now.

@dbread Considering the 65k character limit here on Qoto, that phone in the picture might need to be a bit longer than that!

@StroomAfwaarts Oh, refereerde het daarnaar. 😋 Pun semi intended.

@StroomAfwaarts Watching sports?

@davidchow Currently mastodon.social is slammed because of the influx of new users. They closed registrations on their server because the server was barely responding anymore.

Besides, this is a decentralized network, you don't want one server being enormous and a lot of smaller servers. You want various small to large servers.
