🚨 Attn: #Women in the #fediverse and on #mastondon we need a hastag like #fedihelps for each other when the trolls descend so the squad shows up. Any ideas what it should be? 💅
I am on here to engage with people, not AI, not bots. I find people who set up accounts with no posts and no followers who follow me creepy. I will block you, especially if you have not commented, liked or boosted any of my posts.
En effet, pour mes mails Gandi, je passe à L'autre.net.
Donc, le compte mail change. Si je peux déplacer les courriers d'un simple glisser déposer entre les deux comptes, les filtres, eux ne suivent pas... Merci infiniment ! #mail#filtre
Ok, tell me what you think about this idea! #Mastodon needs some more news outlets and big names here to get people to be happy here. Should we plan to go to the former birdbsite and encourage these people and organizations to come here? Get #Mastondon trending?
I'm a committed #Mastodon user. But I sympathize with the complaints she has gathered and understand why they drove many users away.
All of us who are here and committed to stay should take them seriously, especially if we want more people from our networks to give Mastodon a try (not deterred by its reputation), like what they find (not deterred by their experience), and decide to join us.
All they want is access to the information. They do not want to register. They feel checkmated. They find it impossible to argue. They use registering as an excuse to avoid #mastodon .
To any #Mastondon admins:
Is there any move towards allowing access to #Mastodon instances using #OpenIdConnect rather than individual log in on each instance? @wild1145?
Presumably this might also have relevance if/when changing mastodon instances?
So now I'm being told that a few people on a instance with 1000s of users who complain that you don't use CW or alt-text the way they want can result in your being blocked for the entire instance, even when you've never received any notification of this.
Sort of like how you'd get arrested in fascist countries and never told why. Kafka would recognize this for sure.
I would assert that this makes #Mastodon even more of a toy than I thought it was, and utterly unreliable for much beyond trading photos of kitties. Leela the Siamese Snowshoe approves of kitty photos of course, but beyond that anyone depending on #Mastodon might charitably be called "misguided" at best, if my understanding of the situation is correct.
And I feel that the public needs to understand that they're buying into this sort of nonsense if they're looking at #Mastodon as an alternative to Elon's #Twitter hellscape.
@lauren So FWIW, at least there are several #Mastondon servers for people to choose from. Some people have spun up their own.
Also, this reminds me of the issue of college course lecture videos being unavailable because no captions, so if not good for all, must be banned for everyone.
This is a familiar pattern, and it has to do with people, not technology or platforms.
But those who run the platforms, and participate in them, can help make it better.
Or not.
Admins: I have now asked 6 admins what their Mastodon instances cost to run. They vary widely, but the average instance cost seems to run roughly $500 per 10,000 registered users, per month (not MAUs). Is this consistent with your admin experience? If not, is yours significantly more or less $?
Hora de presentarnos por aquí con una pequeña #introducción en nuestra nueva casa de #Mastondon!
Somos una web y #podcast sobre tecnología, #videojuegos y cultura digital en general, donde tratamos estos temas de una manera cercana y desenfadada desde hace casi 20 años! (el podcast tiene año y pico, eso si)
Encantados de compartir y debatir por aquí todo lo relacionado con lo que nos apasiona de este mundillo :)
Esta no es una cuenta bot! Por lo que estamos abiertos a contestar preguntas, intercambiar impresiones o retotear si es necesario!
