people running single user instances: anything i should know before going into masto.host? assume i only know enough about computers to get myself in trouble

NoraReed,

i bought a domain :)

NoraReed,

im gonna keep my bots on botsin.space because i think they are happier there. they have plenty of room to run around

NoraReed,

okay so... uh. time for the hard question: are there any blocklists i can use as a starting point that aren't compromised by people with deeply concerning personal vendettas?

NoraReed,

@rachel @lampsofgold good to know

I bet everyone who knows me is really tired by now of hearing the story about that time I ordered an FPGA board off AliExpress and instead the the vendor sent me a collectors-edition Dragonball Z action figure. In my defense however this is a really good story

NoraReed,

@mcc i did a dramatic reading of that thread to my husband when you posted it iirc

NoraReed, to mastodon

do any of you use a #mastodon #selfhosting company that has a MOBILE FRIENDLY administration/moderation interface? it's gotta be one of the ones where you pay for it and they keep it updated for you, i don't want to fiddle with it too much, but i need to be able to do the admin/mod stuff that keeps it going FROM MY PHONE. i use android. it doesn't have to be mastodon specifically just something that hooks into the microblogging fediverse or whatever

NoraReed,

@mikey that's what i was leaning toward i just don't want to do it if i need to use a computer

NoraReed,

@mikey oh good! i wasn't sure if it was like idk static web hosting where you have to use their thing. thanks!

i hate "tag all uspol" posts because my whole life is uspol

NoraReed,

i'm trans and disabled. my whole life is politicized. both in the personal is political sense and the politicians use my life as a bargaining chip with no regard for me at all sense

NoraReed,

i also stopped tagging food because im falling back into disordered patterns a bit with new meds

NoraReed,

i usually tag shit about electoral politics because i know people don't care but it's always british people lecturing me on how the united states isn't the whole world

NoraReed,

@pencilears i don't know if it will or won't help for anyone but it frankly kind of fucks me up to do it when im trying really hard to be joyful about food and having my appetite suppressed

NoraReed,

i think what most people mean by "tag uspol" is electoral politics and the fucking palace intrigue shit but it when people just post generally that they want a way to ignore politics it extremely rubs me the wrong way

NoraReed,

@pencilears yeah im thinking of switching to a single user instance tbh

NoraReed,

i do try to remember to tag electoral politics and palace intrigue and drama, especially when it's like, gossipy, but stuff like "i am having a hard time because of all the fascism" i generally don't

NoraReed,

@aetataureate @pencilears that's a good way to do it

NoraReed,

i do always consider tagging every single post about my interactions with the healthcare system with uspol lol. it occurs to me every time i do it

NoraReed,

tbh i think what rubs me the wrong way is viral posts about what you should be tagging. everyone's followers will have different needs

NoraReed, to random

does anyone happen to have a suggestion for a mastodon hosting provider with a mobile friendly backend and administration interface?

NoraReed, to random

good morning people who live in my phone

NoraReed, to random

i have a really cringe question for thinking about what to call a personal mastodon instance: what are things you associate with my personal brand

NoraReed, to random

great news everyone: my husband is reading "excession"
