For new people wondering why Mastodon is on thousands of servers instead of one:
-It helps protect us all against Elon Musk scenarios. It's very difficult for anyone to buy a network made of thousands of independently owned servers. (It's the same reason why no one owns the world's email network, because there are so many independent providers out there.)
-If your server misbehaves (or sells out to a malevolent billionaire), you can move your account to a different server, or even to a brand new server. Decentralisation means you're never trapped on a site you hate.
-Mastodon is an open platform where anyone can start their own server, and they don't need tech knowledge if they use a service like https://masto.host or https://federation.spacebear.ee
...and there are lots more good reasons too, to do with servers using alternative Fediverse software etc, but I'll save that for a future post 😁

I made a list of cool things people do with their blogs: https://brainbaking.com/post/2022/04/cool-things-people-do-with-their-blogs/
Hopefully it'll inspire some.
More suggestions welcome!

The EU has joined the #fediverse by hosting Mastodon and PeerTube instances for EU institutions, offices, and agencies.
ActivityPub is a W3C standard that can redistribute power on the Web back to communities. Great to see public institutions leading.

Every now and then I remember Janet Cardiff’s “The Forty Part Motet”, a reworking of “Spem in Alium” by Thomas Tallis, at the NY MoMA and think, “Pop music needs more 40 vocal track arrangements.”
Every now and then I remember Rich Mullins and think, “Pop music needs more hammered dulcimer.”

A quick note: if you ask me what #JWST stands for I'll tell you it's the Just Wonderful Space Telescope

I got actual chills at the end of “The Wonder Years (2021)” S1E19. Such a fantastic reboot! I hope it gets a season 2.
Google Docs does not support footnotes in its new pageless format. 🤦♂️
Notes just disappear instead of being put at the bottom of the content.
The crowd will go wild if Tufte sidenotes are introduced at #GoogleIO2022.

🎉 Welcome to newcomers! 🎉
A few personal tips:
👌 the Fediverse is NOT twitt*r! enjoy a more relaxed, courteous, benevolent way of interacting! you are part of it!
🤚 introduce yourself! also fill bio and post a couple "toots" before following people to have more chance they'll follow back..
👍 favourite and follow generously! This is how to create link around. No algorithm-god is spying on you, telling you who to follow, what to read! \o/
⚠️ many people care about CW... learn about that
💗
To be clear, I think we can do much better than Mastodon. It’s just the first mover.
Web developers, the ActivityPub spec is right there waiting for you to build a better implementation. Go change the world!
My 2022-04-18 ‘now’ page update is 2 months late and covers 5 months because the pandemic made me sad and WW3 started, but there is some really happy stuff in there too.
Support people trying to build a better future even at an early, messy stage.

elon can have twitter but he can never have my website
4 day weekend. Happy night with my hubby.
I just submitted my application to become a citizen of Sverige! 🇸🇪
To be clear: I am *not* looking for recommendations. I do not like this genre. The US criminal justice system is mostly injustice and Hollywood needs to stop promoting idealistic mythology.
Create a show about #DefundThePolice and I might watch.
My husband enjoys watching bad crime shows. I dislike them all, but sometimes watch them in the background.
“NCIS” in particular is so unrealistic.
Like, who stays in the same job for 19 seasons? So unrealistic.
