The nice thing about Pixelfed/Mastodon is that I often open it to post something, yet end up spending an hour or more looking at the amazing, invariably uplifting, informative, positive and uniquely human content that's being shared, before remembering, 'right, I wanted to post this one photo'. That never happen{s|ed} on other social media. #pixelfed#Mastodon
does anyone know of a good #python api wrapper for creating #mastodon#bots? looking to create something similar to reddit's u/cahbot for the fun of it (if it doesn't exist already)
@MonaApp is just getting better!
The sever tab (to add a list of instances) became explore, where you can look through trending hashtags, find similar accounts to that you follow or see news that are shared at the moment. #MonaApp#Mastodon
I had given up on pleading for more alt-text but I'll try again!
Please add alt-text to your photos/pictures it only takes a minute and does not have to be fancy. My policy is not to boost images without alt-text and I am not the only one.
This is one of the cultural things I like about Mastodon, the inclusiveness. Please don't ruin it.
there really aren't that many good looking #mastodon desktop clients sadly (outside of #macos but then they all look more or less the same because of #swiftui, not to say they don't look great)
Yes, Junior is sleeping like this, stretched out on a cool surface on a very warm day! Happy #Caturday#mastodon 😻 #cat#cats#catsofmastodon His tail takes this shape often 😸
#Mastodon doesn't directly support quoting toot like the bird app. Support (Literally) Quoting Public Toots https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/22793 is still open. I hope they release support for this. This is killer feature.
>> The Verge and 404 Media are building out new functions that would allow them to distribute posts on their sites and on federated platforms – like Threads, #Mastodon and Bluesky – at the same time. Replies to those posts on those platforms become comments on their sites.
Meanwhile, one of my favourite features of #Mastodon: "Hide boosts from XY" (behind the 3 dots of a profile). I had to do it with people who boost every single post of crazy 60-posts-threads.
If you want to boost threads, it's enough to boost the first post! Or only post No 35. If they are numbered or signed with🧵 we can look for the rest ourselves! Please don't flood timelines by boosting every single post!
