I’m new to @Mastodon, trying it out, seeing who to follow. Recommendations appreciated. Interested in #Digital and passionate about #WomenInDigital #WomenInTech

Very heartening to see the mass of coming here from in the great . FWIW there are a few academics based instances here in the Fediverse, I'll try to link to them. The one I can think of off the top of my head is hci.social/about

Amplifying for reach.

Can someone help answer these accessibility questions for new Mastodon users?

This is pretty important, and will affect if I can keep recommending Mastodon as a platform.

Even if you run your own instance, like I do, you have no #privacy on the #fediverse.

Only I get to read the direct messages received at my instance but I have no control over who sees the direct messages I send to other instances.

So, again, until end-to-end encryption is mandated by the core protocol (ActivityPub), remember:

Treat all posts on #mastodon / the fediverse as public and use an end-to-end encrypted messaging app like Signal if you want to have private conversations with people.

What am I doing this Friday evening? Playing the "don't buy Resident Evil 4 again" challenge now on Nintendo Switch.

One thing that GitLab seems to be missing that GitHub has is the ability to see how many files you've reviewed (n of X files viewed) in a merge request 😞

Found this toot again now after changing jobs. Very disappointed to say I'm at a React shop instead of working with but no job is perfect 🤷‍♂️

That said I am very much in the job position of making developer work go faster 🔥

FWIW I'm on Librem's branded social services because I want to know that I'm paying someone to host my account (and I wasn't on Patreon when I set this account up). It's definitely a smaller server so I don't see many issues here. That said if anyone knows of a Philly/PA based local instance that is being run I would be interested and might migrate there (willing to chip in $ too!)

Hugops for @Gargron and the team with all the new users signing up!

Let's be a part of building this community out. If you find someone interesting boost them (even if you normally aren't the type of person that 'boosts') It'll help us find a community easier.

What mastodon needs right now is network size, let's work to build it.

Little advice from an open source maintainer.
If you as a user or community member want your voice to be heard, try to format your message in a polite, direct, and short way. Even if the topic is very large, try to engage in a fluid conversation by discussing fewer points. Writing massively long messages might cause the opposite effect, where the maintainer feels overwhelmed, your most important points get buried, and the conversation ends up dying due the too broad topics.
Less is more.

Hmmm I wanted to try the official @Mastodon app for Android but the login seems to be redirecting me to an instance. Not sure if there's another way to log in 🤔

I can sort of see why people get annoyed with Spotify, it definitely gets into a rut with playing the same bands repeatedly. I'm pretty sure I've heard the same song three times from different albums on this playlist.

Just unboxed and set up my new monitor from work. I didn't appreciate how big a 4K curved monitor would be! The packaging that the whole thing came in was bigger than my daughter 😳
