mastodon

I’m not able to follow lemmy account / community on a 4.2.8 mastodon instace… Are you on the same situation???...

I’m thinking about joining mastodon, but I don’t know what server to go with, and the list of servers seems to have very little information about each. Right now I think I’ll open an account on mastodon.social....

Why is there #Mastodon and #Pixelfed?...

Hi everyone,...

is there some API or other mechanism that allows me to create a contact form on my site and have the messages delivered to my mastodon inbox?

i guess i just experienced one of the biggest downsides to the fediverse that people have been talking about. instance suddenly disappeared with no warning. i guess i’ve lost my follow list

When I select to log in to my account, I get sent to a page with which I log in. After that, it doesn’t switch back to the app, but it saltays within that website page and goes into the -change the password- section. Does this happen because I have not yet been accepted on the server (as stated in the yellow box)?

I recently suggested Mastodon to a friend and she is using it on IOS. She sent me a picture of her visiting an account and the name shows as @username@mastodon.social...

So is there any apps that fetches new posts on a tineline when starting the app?

Just curious to know the different possible use cases.

I created an account on mastodon.social a few days ago. A day after creation, my account was suspended. My appeal was denied and no reason was given. So I assumed mastodon.social was not accepting new accounts, so I moved over to mastodon.online and created an account there. Today that account was suspended as well, again...

Hello,...

I’m not entirely sure how to ask this, but is there some way for a Mastodon server to host only its own content while being accessible to others?...

I know it’s possible to subscribe to a Mastodon user on a Lemmy instance, but it seems to me like this is of limited utility since the more standard use case on Mastodon is following tags rather than users. So, is it possible to somehow follow a Mastodon tag using Lemmy and get posts with that tag integrated into your Lemmy...

I’m looking for a small server, with a few hundred people at most. A lot of these servers aren’t on joinmastodon.org, is there a way to find smaller servers like this?

Noone is on there noone talks to me noone shars my intrests everyone is just lgbtq tech workers

Curious about thoughts on boosting and favoriting here. I’ve only used Mastodon for about a year, and mostly lurk on a personal but also have a business account that posts daily. Maybe you have advice for me or ideas to improve things....

I’m trying to boost a reply to one of my lemmy comments on my mastodon instance. However, that comment does not appear to have been pushed to my fairly small Mastodon instance....

This has become a pet peeve of mine and as a non-native English speaker I just don’t understand why so many people make that typo in the first place- what is it?

I had been spending quite some time on mastodon, but lately realized that it just isn’t for me....

Like breaking news, general news?

I am trying to get into Mastodon (never really used twitter before but I am curious about the fediverse) and it has been noticeably difficult to search for topics and content. Most search queries turn up blank or only with one or two posts. Some hashtags appear as suggested with “0 people talking” and indeed, they are empty....

The most common answer I see is something along the lines of “it’s the equivalent of liking a post on twitter”. It seems that this is not the case, as the Mastodon devs seem rather adamant that they don’t want “likes” in Mastodon. Perhaps it’s a method of saving posts? Well, that doesn’t make sense either, since...
