One of the aspects I love about the #Mastodon servers or instances is that every server's content and all the author's public posts can be visited, read and seen online in any web browser without "register to see more nags" - it's open Web as it should be!

Noticing that the "local" feed of the #Mastodon instance I am on is getting as random as the federated one, telling me that it might be time to find a smaller community which I can relate to more. Wondering if Mastodon has plans for a circles-like grouping of people to follow to create more concentrated feeds?

Contemplating "Automated post deletion" on #mastodon. What are the pros and cons of using this?

At the moment the Mastodon instance at indieweb.social is struggling to keep up with the network surge. I still have my own site here however where I am writing this post on. Chugging along the #Indieweb stream - Don't forget that using your own site for posting to Mastodon and the Fediverse is totally fine and actually promoted. It's called #POSSE

So this is a post to see if it will show up on Mastodon.

Sites like Instagram and Reddit, which are hiding content after teasing access to the content a bit, are really only doing it for the monetization of your content and your profile data. Post on Mastodon or on your own website and you decide yourself who gets to see your contributions.

Seems like many famous web developers are ditching Twitter for Mastodon! check out Zach's boosts: https://fediverse.zachleat.com/@zachleat

Tried installing Mastodon on the Yunohost server on a Raspberry Pi 3. Turns out it does not have enough RAM. Installation aborted itself, left a nice clear log message and then uninstalled everything nicely. That is what is really awesome about Yunohost.

In the process of moving my OpenPGP based keys and claims - which started on Keybase.io - to Keyoxide.org. It is unclear what will happen to Keybase any given moment since Zoom bought it, so I wanted to be prepared. Even-though Keyoxide has less features, the base principle of confirming ones online identities with public key pairs remains. And it seems that most special Keybase features can be replaced with other services, like Mastodon and such.

hmm, somehow I can't reply on posts on Mastodon from my Known site. Will have to dig up ye old error logs.

Reminds me I need to send some moneys to Tim for keeping my Mastodon instance up over at https://indieweb.social.
