In theory you should be able to follow this test user:

@你好

But I can't find any Fediverse software which actually supports non-ASCII usernames.

If you are able to see the user, its description, and its avatar - please send me a screenshot 🙂

Drove some excellent roads today, and droned some excellent scenery, Scotland is A+ would recommend #photography #drone #scotland #nc500

Drone photo looking along a beach to some rocky cliffs sticking in to the sea from the left. Waves are breaking at the bottom of the picture, and a rainbow starts from the land, arching towards the right as it fades. The water is blue and green, and the sky is blue with some clouds.
A drone photo looking down on a road running up the photo away from the camera. It curves in to the distance around a large rocky hill. There’s water on each side of the road, and more rocky hills in the water and into the distance.
A drone photo looking across a beach at sunset. A large cloud dominates the top half of the frame, catching orange from the setting sun behind the camera. The orange of the cloud is reflected in the blue water, with rocky outcrops and the beach at the right.

are:Invent keynote announcement: ElastiCache Serverless — wonder how cost-effective this is for Mastodon servers, particularly very small ones like mine :)

jamesoff, 5 months ago to FreeBSD

Upgraded my mastodon server to #FreeBSD 14. Fairly straightforward but ended up updating Ruby to 3.2.2 to fix a build error.

Added notes to my post at https://jamesoff.net/2022/12/05/mastodon-on-freebsd.html
