I need to write a bot for this... #introductions

I am a maker, tinkerer, hackers, INFOSEC pro, the All-father, and the destroyer of worlds.

Now that that's out of the way. I am also the mayor of hackers.town. an arcology in the Fediverse for hackers, makers, thinkers.

I value exchange of ideas over safespaces, but I do not tolerate hate and bigotry.

Please direct your friends to joinmastodon.org or another instance of your choice like octodon.social, toot.cat or toot.cafe, etc. mastodon.social is "default" choice for a lot of people and it's getting kinda hammered right now.

Tired: social media dogpiling

Wired: social media snuggle piling

EN:

Instance-level blocks are used when an instance's moderation team shows a
clear disinterest in moderating abusive behavior, or when the instance
explicitly tolerates such abuse.

toot.love definitely meets the second criteria, so earlier this afternoon it
was suspended. You will no longer be able to contact or be contacted by users
from that instance.

The mastodon stages:

1: getting used to the interface

2: discovering that most people are just people, engaged in everyday adventures, big & small

3: the allure of the notification sound

4: a gradual getting used to the fact that not everything is about US politics, and that it's okay to filter it out on a macro level

5: a quiet moment when you think "there can still be poetry in this world"

6: some sort of reconciliation with the quantum magic that is the federated timeline

7: pineapples

#Mastodon vetrans, it is your responsibility to take these newcomers and teach them the sacred ways of the herd.

They must know of the 🅱️ , and the oats, and the yams, and how to spell gameing. The awoos and the toots and the rotating coyotes, eternally spinning. Someone must teach them of Gargamel and what we do in this house. They must be introduced to the witches and the commies and the furries and the trans folks.

Let the people share our rich heritage!

OMG Twitter friends are trying le Mastodon again/for the first time! A note/recommendation... as a rule, the big sites like mastodon.social are OK but you may want to try some smaller places and also follow stuff on your INSTANCE level (vs. the whole Fediverse). I'm on witches.town. I really like the toot.cat space/admin. If you're down with furries, awoo.space is pretty rad. cybre.space for you techier types, I've seen SUCH a better tech culture on there... So those are a few. And remember how we're down w/paying for better Twitter? Tip your admins! <3

There is an #OC hashtag and the thing is I have too many?? Like, do you want cute babes in love, villain dad and genius daughter, anxious teenager in extraordinary circumstances, unhappy stickman and the optimism girl? I mean, check out my #webcomics because I have even more. www.harlowevanished.com | www.themusementor.com

new folks:

please remember to make heavy use of CWs

they are there because they are useful to reduce harm for folks

instead of being forced to read a post in order to determine if they want to interact with its contents or not (which is not a choice), you can know what the post is about and choose whether it's worth engaging that or not
