@michael I’ve been thinking about also backfilling accounts that people mention. Those #FollowFriday style posts will be much more readable with backfilled mentioned accounts.
👀 👀 👀 #FollowFriday came early this week! The latest update includes:
Newly-redesigned with header images, the person's public bio, their avatar, 1-click following, and more!
More categories and more profiles
Dynamic recommendations: the profiles change every 6-12 hours based on who is posting, so you're always getting recommendations for the most active accounts
I heard activity is picking up here again with new /returning people looking to get started (good!). 🤩
If you’re wondering who to follow (like I did when I joined) this might help you:
I built it to reference some of the helpful posts I came across that listed accounts to follow on a topic. You can look out for great #FollowFriday tagged posts (and that’s how I found some of these) and I’m asking people to use #BeFound in their post lists too. I deliberately made it to only reference embedded posts via ‘stickies’ - I don’t store the lists themselves. The idea is that I’m pointing out the posts/people who are recommending because I think it’s people who make the best suggestions of who to follow - not an algorithm or AI (at least not yet!) You can get updates on this project by following me at @shomila
I'm looking for folks discussing the overall quality of open source software, either from the product, privacy, or design perspective. Any recommendations? Thank you in advance #ux#uxdesign#privacy#ProductManagement#foss#OpenSource

Hello! 👋🏻 My name is Rich and I’m horror novel/film junkie. Most of my posts involve spooky books and movies. You’ll also get some occasional Hawaii stuff and general all around nerdery.
Every new Mastodon account should automatically follow @MissingThePt so that new users are incentivized to quickly learn their app’s mute and block features. #FollowFriday
