Is there a way to automatically mute accounts identified as being a bot? If not, I think that would be a great feature. That and automatic muting of accounts with posts predominantly not written in your native language. I wish I was multilingual but unfortunately I'm not. #mute#bots#posts#language
I don’t know if this is the better place to post this, but this is something annoying me in the fediverse, especially using/following Lemmmy and Mastodon profiles/communities....
I am curious, how many of you still read #blogs as I know this will be somewhat skewd beause a lot of you all are here more techy and such. But do you prefer more video content or even blog posts that have an audio version where you can stream the audio of the post.
Personally I still read blogs, but I will admit where I do a lot of multi-tasking work these days I typically use a screen reader to read aloud the post to me while I work if it is a particularly long post.
Well, and now Mark Zuckerberg announces a test, where #posts in #Threads will be visible in the #Fediverse. That's interesting.
Here on this #instance, I don't see anything, but when I search on journa.host for @zuck, I'll get a SSL-error. So there is something there, even if it doesn't work yet. Anyone with more details?
Es gibt Menschen hier im #Fediverse, die als einzige #Sprache "deutsch" für ihre öffentliche Timelines eingestellt haben.
Wenn ihr jetzt als #Beitragssprache was anderes als "deutsch" eingestellt habt und in Euren #Posts dennoch deutsche Inhalte erzeugt, dann werden Euch diese Menschen nicht sehen (können).
Und den sehbehinderten Menschen, denen es dennoch angezeigt wird, da wird es falsch übersetzt/vorgelesen.
Sometimes, briefly, I miss my days as an influencer online. That was never my plan, but as you know, the former Twitter used Algorithms. The more engagement you made, the higher your presence became. My followers have always been higher than the amount I follow. The more I follow, the less I see, caught up in a fast moving stream of (mostly garbage) ReTweets. #ENGAGEMENT is not Boosting or Liking, it's responding, dialogue, comments, and conversation. #Influencer#Klout#Twitter#Gifts#Thread
Many people say:
I DON'T WANT TO SEE POLITICS
Well I don't want to see just ART either.
I'm pleased you make money of #Art For Sale; I hope you do well, Can I help you get visibility to show it to a larger viewing audience than you have? Maybe learn how to post first? I'll help.
What separates your account from AI generated posts or photos? Is it a REAL person?
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.
Hey #Mastodon. While scrolling down the page in the #Explore category, how about freezing the row/header that shows #Posts#Hashtags#People and #News so it is always visible?
Nobody wants to scroll all the way to the top to pick a different category.
my dark twisted secret is i always use my turn signals whenever possible because i believe they were included in vehicles for a reason. i’m a bit of a freak this way. a weirdo

Since buying #Twitter last year, Elon #Musk has developed a seeming obsession w/the Anti-Defamation League.
Over the past several days, the owner of #X …has posted at least 25 times about the ADL, a #nonprofit#Jewish group that fights #antisemitism.
The ADL itself resumed #advertising on the site a few months later.
On Wednesday, a spox confirmed to Religion News Service that the ADL again halted any spending on advertising on #X as of this weekend. #Musk may also be aggrieved by an #ADL report issued in May that found “an increase in #antisemitic content on the platform & a decrease in the #moderation of antisemitic #posts.”
I appreciate that the best way to search for and tag #posts is the #hashtag (thanks @chrismessina ) and not a black box #algorithm, but can we consider a less #obtrusive#symbol, like a .leading .dot or something to make posts more readable? (Gratuitous hashtags added for effect, but it’s not uncommon to see 5 or or more words in a 50 word post being hashtags)
Better Mastodon/Lemmy Integration? (leminal.space)
