Did you know you can add #fediverse account feeds to your #RSS reader? #Mastodon101

As an example, here is a URL for my account: https://mastodon.sdf.org/@cosullivan.rss

Model: Https://[instanceDomain]/[@username].rss

I read this elsewhere: If trusted news outlets would start offering #Mastodon instances to their staff, that would bring some sort of verification and visibility. Think social.nytimes.com, social.heise.de etc. I'd love to read more from trusted journalists on the #fediverse and this could greatly help. (Again, not my idea but couldn't find the original author.) Boosts for visibility would be great. Reminder: Favorites don't help as on this other platform.

Want to cross-verify your identity on Mastodon but don't have your own website?

If you're on GitHub, you can set up something similar with GitHub Pages

1. Add simple index.html file to GitHub repo
2. Enable GitHub Pages in Settings
3. Link in Mastodon profile
4. Voila

Users are not designers, and "doing what the user asks" is a bad design strategy.

However, I see stakeholders saying this to justify another, even worse design strategy: "doing what the stakeholder asks."

*Everyone's* change requests are data points, starting points.

Currently studying my Twitter archive data to figure out the requirements for importing Tweets to the fediverse. You can see my current rubberducking here: https://codeberg.org/postmodern/fediverse-importer/issues/2

There are now a nice bunch of #climatologist|s here. Also showing how broad #ClimateScience is.

@micefearboggis is famous for the UK sea surface temperature dataset.

@Ruth_Mottram works on Greenland.

@wolfgangcramer is an IPCC author working on climate & biodiversity.

@tasvo is an Antarctic paleo climatologist.

@saravicca works on the carbon cycle.

@arthurgessler studies ecosystem under global change.

@steve studies climate models, but not like you expect. 1/2

#Suggestion: Point #TwitterMigration to the Fediverse so not everyone is flocking to a Mastodon instance.

You see, the network is the #Fediverse, the underlying tech is #ActivityPub (which is a #WebStandard).

Mastodon is, but one of many flavours connected to the Fediverse network. There is no “Mastodon network” or "Pleroma network” or “MissKey network”, they are all “Fediverse network”.

Promote the Fediverse. That is what who we are.

@mike_hales @gert @strypey @lightweight @bhaugen @organizingInFedi @matslats https://webxdc.org by the people behind @delta is interesting, in that it is webapps that uses chat as auth. As I understand, a "server" could be a chatbot sending webxdc apps as responses and handling app responses. If Quicksy support "appears", running community-member-friendly services sounds more tractable than otherwise.
