So... I found a username/account that is completely different if I search it here on my mastodon.world account, vs when I search it on my botsin.space account. Two completely different profiles.

The account is the following (without the spaces):

What is going on?!?!

Looking for help: If I click on a profile and get "You don't have permission to view this page", what does that mean? 🤔​

«Given the Moon’s weaker gravity (and movement differences between it and Earth), time moves slightly faster there. So an Earth-based clock on the lunar surface would appear to gain an average of 58.7 microseconds per Earth day. As the US and other countries plan Moon missions to research, explore and (eventually) build bases for permanent residence, using a single standard will help them synchronize technology and missions requiring precise timing.»

Why on Earth is basic formatting

Is this not running v4.2.7 ?? ...

Hi @christianp --

Thanks for your timely response,

and of course, foremost + especially, thanks for supporting $\LaTeX$ at all,
and thanks for having raised the max. numbers of characters (1729) to a level which enables scientific correspondence.

Could you please suggest where/how to learn (and possibly ask) more systematically about ... (focussing on my single-most-pressing remaining frustration) ... which mastodon "instance(s)" might already support all that AND "basic formatting" ??

Help with filters needed!

Say I want to filter out posts containing the exact phrase "Donald Trump" from my feed (I don't – just using that as an example).

But I still want to see posts about Donald Duck and Trump Tower. How do I ensure only the exact phrase "Donald Trump" is filtered. I've looked at the official documentation and also fedi.tips but they seem more directed towards filtering individual words.

Thanks!

Is there anyway to block automated accounts? Specifically those from birdbrain.
I can't seem to find it.

Is there a database of instances and their moderation/federation policies somewhere?

Seems to me that the latter is the main consideration in picking an instance, over “shared interests”.

Okay, a little help with the Mastodon system, please? From time to time I get a notification in my list that consists only of three dashes. It counts as one in my total, up until I click on it and it vanishes. Is that a fave, repost, or comment that got deleted? Something from someone who's blocked me after? What's going on here?

Ich hab in einem Gespräch gemerkt, wie verwirrend manche Begriffe des Fediverse für einige Menschen sind und hab mal versucht, einfach runterzubrechen, was Plattformen, Instanzen und Server sind.

Vielleicht hilft es? Dann gern weiterschicken an Leute, die vielleicht auch verwirrt sind.

Anyone have any ideas???

cdrom.tokyo have so many fuckin' issues. I've tried different browsers and time later it get useless: it turns blank. What the fuck?
Seriously should have their app so I could use it.
Again, I will be posting at nights from my laptop only.
Hope minidisc.tokyo won't have that shit...

From my basic understanding, it's kinda easy to pick a new instance, Im in Japan and use the Germany instance, where you are is not an issue.

But, if you want to see pertaining to Japan then, you need to have an instance in Japan

NOTE, I only use the Android basic and never use a browser for Mastodon (but if I did I would use Firefox 🦊

Is there any way to make Mastodon any way darker?
I have the dark mode on, but all white pictures come out as pure eye-assault, even when my phone is also on dark mode, and blue light blocked.

Newbie question: Is there a way to see ONLY the replies that people have made to your posts? There are some people who have replied to me who I plan on replying back to, so I bookmarked the conversation, but I’ve bookmarked a whole bunch of other stuff to and the conversations are all mixed in. I just want to see the bookmarked replies (kinda like an inbox, I guess). Anyone have a solution for this?

Mastodon question.

How can I tell if my profile is verifiable. I think I've followed the directions (https://joinmastodon.org/verification), but I don't see a check by any of my site references.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is it rude to reply to German or Italian posts that land in my feed, saying to select the right language? Or should I just mute their authors?

Elon Musk is drowning and taking X down with him!

The real problem with X, which everyone keeps referring to as Twitter, is simple: the app simply isn’t valuable. There hasn’t been anything new for quite some time now.

In pre-fasc Twitter, I could just enter my handle and the word & voila, but that doesn't seem to work on Mastodon

Et voici les Tutos Mastodon de la communauté

Nous sommes une centaine d'écolos (surtout ) réunis sur une boucle d'échange par notre intérêt pour , ses principes et ses possibilités techniques.

On pense que c'est important d'en être, que c'est en phase avec les convictions et les valeurs écolos.
