Liebe e Leuts & , wenn ihr zusammen geht, bitte geht in vegane . Bei Gruppen von veganen + nichtveganen Leuten geht's meist in "Gemischtwarenläden", weshalb vegane Läden weniger Zuspruch haben. Sie sind aber — neben ihrem ethischen Beitrag — eine der wenigen Zufluchtsorte für die veganen Freundys, wo sie einmal nicht mit all dem konfrontiert werden.
Derzeit gehen viele vegane Läden kaputt.
Bitte helft diese Orte zu erhalten.🙏
Teilen erwünscht.

Fediverse question:

I'm not seeing "Share On" icons on news articles and such for Mastodon/Fedi, except very very rarely. Is this because of the limitless variations in server configuration? Is it not necessary because copying a link is just as easy? Or is it because the Fedi didn't start getting the little attention it's received lately, until only lately and still remains relatively obscure for most folks?

Welcome to the newest Mastodonians who have migrated from the Hindenburgian birdsite.

One of the things I’ve learned here is to use #CamelCase. It helps others to access what you’re tooting.

Hello #fediverse anyone know why #pixelfed share button does not show as active for old posts that were already boosted? Or is this #activitypub feature? The like button seems to stay active. Seeking #fedihelp

#FediHelp Boosts requested for maximum reach (much appreciative)

As some of you know, I recently retired from the military after 20 years (still technically in on "transitional leave") and I am hoping to connect to any professionals within the Counseling field, specifically within the Addiction Counseling concentration. Bonus points if you're in the NC area

The contact IS NOT for personal counseling; I want to ask questions as I am interested in pursuing a Master's of Arts in Counseling.

Nobody answered my question on instagram, so my hopes are with mastodon now :blobbowing:
I make cross stitch and bead embroidered jewelry and I will sell my them at the Austrian comiccon next year. As my crafting time is limited I want to focus on items that might sell. So...which games or characters would you want to buy? Thanks in advance!

Kinda hoping for a bit of #FediHelp here! We are looking for the person that owns "joinmastodon.de" and were wondering if they're interested in selling it :blobcat_flowercrown:​. I already sent an E-Mail to what I assume is their E-Mail, because there are no methods of contact behind the domain or the domain it forwards to! Even the WayBack Machine lists nothing. :blobcat0_0:​

If anyone knows who is behind this, please let me / them know! Boosts appreciated :boost_requested:​

Does anyone know of a or project that will a card catalogue system? I'd like to start loaning out gear and items and such, including media and books. Could really benefit from a way to manage patrons and the contents of the catalogue.

Anything already existing?

Help! Ich benötige ein neues Profilbild...

  1. Möchte gerne weiterhin etwas im Cartoon Look haben, finde mich selber nicht so schön, weshalb ich von einem RealLife Foto absehe.

  2. Nichts KI-generiertes, möchte Künstler unterstützen.

Kennt ihr einen Künstler oder eine Künstlerin, den bzw. die ihr empfehlen könnt und aktuell Aufträge entgegennimmt? :blobcatwhat:

Ich habe mal den @martinmuc angeschrieben. Es muss doch ein paar Leute geben hier, welche die Instanz übernehmen und weiter betreiben würden. Also ich wäre dabei - aber nicht alleine, da bräuchte ich Hilfe an einigen Stellen. Wie seht ihr das? Vielleicht haben wir ne Möglichkeit, bevor alle umziehen müssen. Mitstreiter irgendwo? Gerne boosten!

Kennt jemand eine freundliche #Augenarztpraxis Nähe #Altona? Also eine, wo eins sich in guten Händen wüsste? Aufgrund verzichtbarer Erfahrungen habe ich etwas Angst vor Praxen. Jetzt müsste ich hin, da ich schon paar Tage länger ein Autsch an einem Augenlid habe. Teilen hülfe auch. Sobald ich einen Tipp + Termin habe, aktualisiere ich den Text.

Mastodon, please help me.
I am trying to locate a music video I saw about a year ago, and foolishly neglected to write down the name.

It was a lilting song with vocals, featuring a smiling but silent lady dancing in the back yard of a mansion, while doing the lyrics in sign language. At the end she is standing inside an elegantly sculpted circular opening in a large brick wall.

Does this sound familiar?

I’m trying to understand a Spanish idiom (from Spain, specifically Toledo area)

Any Spaniards here willing to explain to me “te estoy dando la noche”?

Está bien si lo explicas en español, solo quiero entender mejor como se usa.

From context clues I think I understand the intent but I’d like to find an English idiom that aligns…

Help, I have an / question: if you own your own domain, can you use that one domain for hosting accounts for multiple fediverse apps?

For example, if I owned bjones.com (alas, I do not), could I have mastodon@bjones.com, pixelfed@bjones.com, etc?

New in the #Fediverse network and it seems to be empty? Try these steps.

(Note: I'm using #Mastodon as an example.)

  1. Create three lists: "CUR: All", "CUR: Flipboard", "CUR: Newsmast".

(CUR = CURated / CURation)

  1. Search for "Flipboard" and "Newsmast" (Flipboard accounts share the same icon, Newsmast accounts share the same icon as well.)

  2. Follow the accounts you're interested in. (It's by topic.)

  3. Add each of those accounts to your "CUR: All" list. And to its respective platform list: "CUR: Flipboard" or "CUR: Newsmast".

  4. Switch your "Home" view to "CUR: All", "CUR: Flipboard", or "CUR: Newsmast".

Another way of doing it is by topic:

  • CUR: Nature
  • CUR: Current Events
  • CUR: Programming

Or, by region:

  • CUR: Local
  • CUR: Asia-Pacific
  • CUR: Africa

Adjust it to your needs.


In the Mastodon family, you can set the list to not show up in your "Home" timeline. This way, you can still see the posts from other people you follow without it being filled with curated content boosts.

Benefits of following curation accounts:

  1. You don't have to follow every single account.

> Usually, accounts share other topics which you probably are not interested in. Curated lists filter these topics for you.

  1. You will discover content and people to follow.

> Both Flipboard and Newsmast boosts/reshares the original post. You see the original source/account and interact with them directly.

> You can then choose who you want to follow directly so you can see more of their content and interests, and build a friendly relationship with them.


It becomes possible to only follow 10 accounts ever, yet consume hundreds of content and information.

This way, you can avoid following hundreds of accounts which will only make your "Home" timeline confusing; and more likely, you'll miss what matters most for you because of so many posts from so many accounts.

I hope it helps you! Welcome to the Fediverse #SNS !

P.s. If you're using an awesome Fediverse software or platform besides Mastodon, the steps are similar, if not exactly the same.

Hey friends, I hate to do this, but I need some #fedihelp this week to get my HRT and my bipolar medication. The goal is $200, but absolutely anything will help!

My Venmo is @DoctorDeathray

My cash app is $vivihunter

You can also purchase from my Bandcamp at https://doctordeathray.bandcamp.com/music

And if you can’t help financially, a boost is wonderful!

#Spanish #FediHelp

The context: a conversation about how someone feels they will never be able to show the love that their partner deserves, then they ask, with everything that’s going on, “te tengo que pedir una cosa… es que no me falles.”

In this case could ‘no me falles’ be translated as “don’t give up on me” rather than “don’t fail me” or “don’t let me down” ?

I see a lot of posts on here chiding people for suggesting as a solution to the surveillance capital tool know as .

I understand their point to a point, however, the solution to windows spying is, ultimately, to not use windows.

If you would like to not use windows but don't know where to start, I'd be more than happy to have a chat with you to help get you started on your journey.

It's really not that bad, folks. If you're ready to stop paying hundreds of dollars for the pleasure of having all your data stolen, hit me up, and let's figure something out for you, today!
