If you want to impress a girl who plays sting instruments where she has to get her hands on the strings, offer to cum on her hands before performance as that acts as a superior resin and heals and rejuvenates the skin #feditips

Did you know you can easily search through your own Mastodon posts?

Just include from:me in the search field.

Instead of this, you can include in:library to show posts you have interacted with or written yourself.

If you want to search through posts of a specific user, include from:username (the full username, including the instance)

Last night I came up with (and implemented!) an idea for a mastodon client that automatically curates my feed by categorizing toots. It's just idea phase right now, but I wrote about the process here https://timkellogg.me/blog/2023/12/19/fossil #LLMs #AI #feditips

This is your algorithm. If you don't want to miss posts from someone, turn this on.

Yes, I have wondered this. Thanks for the info.

@feditips

I hope I didn't sound too harsh

For me, it really is :mastodon: / :fediverse: or just skip social media

I learned of "Fedifetcher" from you, #FediTips here:

https://fedi.tips/using-relays-to-quickly-expand-a-servers-view-of-the-fediverse/

We had a small friends/fam instance. But Fedifetcher + relays + translation was a lot to maintain so we just shut down and jumped to a better federated instance.

Big shoutout to @jerry for setting up a Mobilizon server at https://meetups.infosec.exchange !

This is an analog to Meetup.com but is a part of the Fediverse and uses ActivityPub.

This has a few amazing implications...

So!!! You create a personal account on the server and then create a group. The group can then create events.

This is multiuser administration! So the group is separate from your personal account. So you don't have to share passwords for the group account. Instead, you have members join and then assign them administrative privileges. That's huge!

Further, whenever you create an event, it posts it via ActivityPub as well! So you don't need a separate Mastodon account to "crosspost". (Kinda like when we posted a meetup event, we would then cross post to Twitter. - You don't do that here. It's just one place and any fediverse account that follows you can interact with you via any other software / service.

So! I can follow my FXBG Hackers Mobilizon group from my Mastodon account. It just looks like a normal account from here. (you can view it at: @fxbghackers ).

We just created an event for our December meetup. That can be found here: https://meetups.infosec.exchange/events/60e32fc3-e098-4982-9e8b-155505d79f97

You can view that link through Mobilizon or through Mastodon and it will appear differently (see screen shots).

Here's the cool thing. I REPLIED to the Mobilizon event announcement with my Mastodon account via the Mastodon software and it shows up AS A COMMENT in the Mobilizon event page!!!!

That is the power of the Fediverse.

Fucking unbelievable.

Właśnie zdałem sobie sprawę, że przeniesienie się na inną instancję nie przeniosło mi... obserwowanych tagów. No PKP...

Czy jest jakiś #feditips na to? Czy trzeba ręcznie?

@feditips Help me find information about the feature comparison of each Mastodon app. Like:

1.Tusky
2.Megalodon
3.Mastodon official app
4.Subway tooter

I have installed all of them & Still can't determine which one suits me best 😅

It will be clearer if the form of comparison is in the form of a table, such as a price or features comparison of other online service

Sorry if my request is too much & complicated 😅✌️

#MastodonFAQs #newuser #FediTips

I’m really trying to tailor my feed to toots that I want to see but I’m finding following hashtags tags a bit challenging. I’ve been seeing news articles from accounts like globalnews_mirror@mastodon.hongkongers.net and I’d rather not. How does filter etc to make personalize their feeds better? #fedihelp #feditips @feditips

How to make reply window bigger? it is too small to see what one is typing.

#mastodon #feditips @feditips

@bosquebill @feditips
Since the implementation of 4.2 I've also seen my feed stutter & reload. I finally had to hide images but unfortunately I can't find an option to hide link previews.
#FediTips

RSS fans, you can follow hashtags via RSS using the address:

(server)/tags/(hashtag without the #).rss

For example if you want to follow the hashtag #dogs on mstdn.social you would add this address to your RSS feed reader:

https://mstdn.social/tags/dogs.rss

(Thank you to @hunkabilly for pointing this out!)
