Mastodon clients in the Apple ecosystem can sync timeline read position using iCloud.
That’s nice because you can always continue reading your timeline from where you left of, even if you switch from phone to computer etc.
Would it be technically possible to instead have a timeline read position as a variable connected to your account in the server that clients can read and write to? 🤔
That way it wouldn’t matter which client or OS you are using, you could still have a synced timeline experience.
Un point qui rebute parfois les personnes qui découvrent le #Fediverse, c'est le fait de devoir créer un compte pour chaque service qu'elles souhaitent utiliser.
Mais cette contrainte finira peut-être par disparaître ! #Pixelfed va ouvrir la voie, puisqu'il sera bientôt possible d'utiliser Pixelfed en se loggant avec son compte #Mastodon ou son compte #Calckey.
I was just wondering - what's the point of #AntiMetaFediPact?
A huge selling point of #Mastodon is that nothing interferes your feed. Why not let users decide which domain to block?
according to @jsstaedtler's poll with around 40,000 votes, 45% of @Mastodon is 40+ year olds. is this a factor in why some new, perhaps younger users find it difficult to find appealing accounts or posts?
as a 20y/o it's been easy for me to find accounts that i align with politically (socialist), but it's been difficult finding users that have similar humor as me (i enjoy @196.

The #Fediverse’s worries over #Threads allowing abusive behaviour to spill over to networks here would also be a problem for Threads » Tumblr » Twitter if any of these federated.
On existing fediverse or #mastodon instances that would be overwhelming,
For large commercial to commercial instances what would it be? A reason to share resource or develop collaborative strategies against abuse?
Or simply imposition of external moderation costs? Incentive to defederate?
Moin #Mastodon und euch einen gesunden Start in diesen Sonntag. Ich geniesse noch 2 Stuendchen die Aussicht auf die Alster und dann geht es nach #Berlin um via #Istanbul nach #Taipei zu starten.
5 Wochen sind um und ich freue mich echt schon auf mein eigenes Bett und vergleichsweise langweilige Tagesablaeufe 😎
Czy #mastodon zaliczył sekundowy hype jak Elon obraził się na scrapperów i poblokował API? A potem zaliczył kolejne twarde lądowanie do rzeczywistości, gdy Mark ogłosił Threads? xD
Airy earrings with intense movement that will catch the eye! The play continues with the changes in colors and textures!!!

Really enjoying shipping all of my real life friends over from #Instagram to #Threads to get ready to ship them over to #Mastodon and from there over to #PixelFed. Laughs in fediverse
Poorly constructed posts with broken grammar, deliberately incomplete or mis-spelt works, a lack of capitalisation and punctuation at appropriate points, and scattered emoticons used instead of words will never get traction through me.
I'm not against you constructing your posts that way for your target audience, but they completely exclude the folk on here who rely on #ScreenReaders and that is not behaviour I, personally, wish to encourage.
Please do not be offended if I simply block you permanently and never engage with you again if this is your style of posting.
Hier meine ich, die ersten Auswirkungen von #Threads zu sehen: Das sind einfach die Zugriffe aus #Twitter (grün) und über die Posts von @heiseonline (blau) auf heise.de nach Tagen/Stunden. Twitter lief #Mastodon da immer etwas voraus, aber seit Donnerstagnachmittag nicht mehr.
#Mastodon and the #fediverse in general are pretty chaotic and disjointed in their approach to #decentralized and #federated content. I.e. it's difficult to understand the concept of having an account on service A that can talk to service B. Plus a lack of a #corporate pushed #timeline, etc.
@davidrevoy Time to ask other writers to join the #fediverse through @pixelfed or #mastodon so that they could leave Instagram sometime in the near future... :-)
