@eloquence The term disruptive, eg a disruptive technology, is used when something very new make its way (iPhone may serve as one example). It's far too early to tell how Twitter will evolve and its position as well as Mastodon. But right now, maybe Mastodon will get a disruptive advantage caused by a person on the other product. Quick thoughts.

I have now installed my Joplin note-taking app also on my latest machine (ThinkPad T460 with Linux Mint). I sync devices of all kind and OS with via my account, end-to-end encrypted with my own keys (my encryption in the Nextcloud file manager). Works well to setup the new device. I like , ! joplinapp.org/

The collapse of Twitter is a system breakdown. Mastodon and the fediverse represent something different: _system change_. From for-profit "Big Tech" to nonprofit, open source, community-owned public spaces.

System change is always harder than you think. It always incurs short-term costs, with hoped for long-term benefits.

The next few weeks will be really tough for the fediverse. Stick around, vibe with it, and you just might help us put a huge part of the web back in community hands. <3

Hi, this is Greta. You are welcome to follow me here, if you prefer planet earth to planet mars.

I have used the 1Password password manager for a few years, incl on GNU/Linux. Maybe a year ago they added also a Linux client in addition to the browser extension. Today I have installed also the Linux client - I appreciate they have the full flegded client also for Linux.

@zaivala Bigger screen is nice. But I will often dock to an external screen. I think its 32 Gb Ram will be nice for photo editing (my mac has 8 as well as my best older Mint-laptop). My mac is also too old now for latest macOS, while the T460p of about same age can upgrade to latest Mint for several years to come!

@shawnp0wers Have you tried vdo.ninja? Not instead or solving, I suppose. But I know the mintcast pod use it for their youtube livestream. I’m not into the video business, so I don’t understand or know anything… (but curious to try one day in the future)

Preparing my refurbished ThinkPad T460p to be used more and more in favor over my macMini. Linux Mint Cinnamon is in place, more sw ongoing. I have Linux on two older machines as well, but this one should be good enough as daily driver incl photo management. I like !

Charlie Chaplin! SVT Play har just nu ett gäng Chaplinfilmer. Trevligt!

Just wanted to say thank you to all the people who have been using mastodon for a while—coming to a new social network is extremely difficult and everyone has been so welcoming. I’m seeing so many earnest advice posts and it really warms my heart. ❤️

A very warm welcome to those of you migrating from Twitter, or those of curious about the other side!

#Hashtags are important here. There's no algorithm dictating what you see or when you see it. Finding who to follow or what topics to track is completely up to you.

Which is refreshing.

On our web view, we like to follow stuff like #Linux and #OpenSource. Use your search bar and look around!

To get a BUNCH of great tips on using Mastodon, follow #Mastotips.

Have fun!

@kallekn @judith @LinusLarsson Ja, den är bra!
Två andra funderingar: Vad innebär Musks relation till Kina (gm Teslas stora verksamhet där) för Twitter? Och vad skulle ett eventuellt misslyckande för Twitter innebära för Tesla och hans andra produkter och projekt?
