For those unaware, not only are #posts from people #NewHere who add #Hashtags like this in the bod of posts, #annoying for everyone... they make it REALLY HARD for people with screen readers (since most reading technologies will read the hashtags out loud).
Put your hashtags at the end of the post, and use CamelCase to make life easier for everybody.
This might be something for a future Mastodon update, actually. The way Tumblr creates a space for hashtags at the bottom of posts could be a handy feature to adopt here, for instance.
@LouisIngenthron It's a consistent issue I've encountered when speaking to people with visual disabilities, and, from what I understand, the issue's relatively complex. There may be people out there who can better explain why than I can, as well as suggest resources to help.
🚀 We're happy to announce DW Innovation has just launched on Mastodon!
Follow us for discussions on media tech and journalism, from ideas and concepts to prototypes and unfolding trends – and ethical dilemmas. Let's dive into the world of digital media together!
Reminder to everyone getting started; almost all social media experiences grow faster when you use the 3/4s "rule" (More like concept, really) that if you spend 3/4s of your social media time engaging (boosting, liking, commenting) and 1/4s time posting new stuff/advertising things go much better!
I have found this to be largely true, even if I often don't remember to follow it lol.
OMG... what is this ?? #newhere
any #help available
originally on despora and stumbling over the fact that you cannot put in photos in commentaries...
just thought that I can do it from here...
anyway reaching my retirement ... which means no discussing, probing these issues endlessly - analogue time is more precious....
if I put in #gardening as a hashtag mastodon tells me- nothing around ???
Dank lieber Leute hab ich den Umzug ins CHAOS geschafft & stell mich kurz vor:
Ich bin Lili, trans femme um die 30, bin chronically online & nenne mich da Lilischote weil aeh klingt witziger?
Social Media nutze ich primär als Informationsquelle & um Aufklärung zu verbreiten. Vor allem Aufklärung & Repräsentation von #queer & #trans Themen, aber mittlerweile auch oft Gesellschaftspolitik.
Hi everyone! I’m #newhere, again! I had an account before but the server musician.social was on accidentally got wiped. So here’s a little #introduction: I like talking about #music and #culture, especially that of the #80s and #90s. My own music has more of a #00s feel since that was when I first started writing. #björk, #toriamos and #radiohead are my greatest influences and I’d say my material falls into the #artpop genre.
I’m currently recovering from #longcovid and learning #finalcutpro.
I was recently lured here, watched it from a distance for a while and now settled here.
From now on, I will be communicating the events I run for my players on #Drachenfels exclusively here, and not on certain other "social" sites, which I all will delete very soon. Here you don't need a login and can easily read & view pics! I hope for a pleasant, inclusive interaction and am very much looking forward to a new adventure here!
Hi there, I'm Kasiandra a Cyber-Witch-Punk from outta 'ciety. I'm not really #newhere/ #neuhier, this is my public account for publishing #Art, #photography, #Recipes, #howtos and more, mostly in German. Feel free to follow me if ya interested in this and #mastoart / #mastodonartist.
Heya Blorbo.Social! I'm Pippin and I'm #NewHere. I'm a queer artist living in a mitten with three cats and a couple other humans, too.
For the past five years my main interest has been #MCYT with my fave SMP being #Hermitcraft. I dabble in plenty of others as well though, #QSMP, #Lifesteal, and #EmpiresSMP (and whatever the Life Series is called over here).
Outside of that I'm a fan of #Animation and #VideoGames and even books when the stars align.
