@nikikursalow Welcome to Paktodon.Asia, the first Pakistani mastodon instance!
Heres some tips for you to get started, feel free to ask around for helpful, its a very nice community here. #WelcomeWednesday
You must be using either the Tusky app on android, a web browser on a pc, or any other third-party app; the official mastodon app has very limited features:
In 852, a 1000 years before the #airplane by Wright brothers, Abbas Ibn Firnas jumped from the minaret of the Grand Mosque in #cordoba using a loose cloak stiffened with wooden struts.
The cloak slowed his fall, creating what is thought to be the 1st parachute, and leaving him with only minor injuries
His designs would have been an #inspiration for Leonardo da Vinci, 💯s of years later
I like nerding with notes, languages, philosophy, reading non-fic, #solarpunk, #Dimension20, exploring non-d&d #rpg systems, waterfalls, poems, playlists, #cats. I have an admin job that inspires me to pay attention to intersections of #tech, #climate, #gender, & #rights in the #globalSouth.
I have a friend who has experienced so much racism and surveillance that she's wary of using social media at all. I was thinking that a server run by and for Muslims like herself might be a safer place to plug in.
Please share suggestions or RT if your followers might know. Thanks!
