As an individual user, if I block a whole instance does it stop my toots from going there (so my toots would never appear in that instance's view of the federated timeline)? Or does it only stop people on that instance from interacting with me?
I have a @Mastodon account on mastodon.social with followers I would like to keep. But I also have my own website at FredRocha.net, running ActivityPub. How do I keep both while having my posts on my FredRocha.net WordPress install be federated as john_fisherman@mastodon.social?
Is this a thing? Are there aliases on the #fediverse that are easy to setup?
Or it’s expected to have multiple ids over here and just boost’em from instance to instance?
Does anyone know how the tagging function works. I've got a column that was originally just tagged with #bikeNYC and I added #WildFlowerHourNYC and #pawPaw and I know I've messed it up. There are three categories and I don't know what they mean. Any of these, All of these, None of these. Actually the latter makes some sense. Maybe an logical expression would help. Time for #Fedihelp.
Is there a way to move followers from one #Fediverse service to another, for example from #Mastodon to #Calckey? Within a service (e.g. Mastodon) the move from one #Instance to another is possible without any problems. But across services?

Any suggestions on disposing of this foam packing material? This isn't styrofoam, though I doubt that the local city will take it. Boosts welcome. #FediHelp#Recycling#Disposal
I want to write a top-like tool for my server software (i.e. I want it to emita table of running requests), and also a structured access log (not persistent, only to display it while amonitoring tool is attached).
Is there some kind of standard protocol to transport such information to a monitoring tool, e.g. over a Unix socket or Websockets?
Is there a search engine/list/tool to find the right hashtags for posting on a certain topic? #FediHelp
Manual curation is hard work, so what about a PageRank style thing that will apply Bayes' rule to all words + hashtags in all public toots, and allow to search hashtags by most-related words? Too close to a search engine?
I'm looking for a thing that will:
live index all hashtags on a large server
provide a searchable description/word cloud/related hashtags for each of those hashtags
Why is it that sometimes I'll see a toot with replies but I'm unable to see the replies? Or I'll see a reply but be unable to see the original post? It feels like pieces of the conversations are just missing.
