Good morning Fedi friends!
It's been 99 days since I started self-hosting my own Fediverse instances. Crazy how time flies!
I've been a bit absent from here this week because I started exploring the world of #PeerTube from the POV of a creator.
I just set up my own account on #MakerTube - so that I can write a guide that is accessible to many (as opposed to skipping this step and going straight to self-hosting).
Anyway, here is my PeerTube account: https://makertube.net/a/elena/video-channels
I have been able to follow it from #Mastodon and #Friendica without a problem, but I keep getting an error message when I try to subscribe with my #GoToSocial username. The exact message: "Cannot fetch information from this remote account." Does anybody have the same issue? (as in: people on GoToSocial, can you subscribe to PeerTube channels?)
Wishing you all a lovely day 🌞
P.S.: about to go offline for the rest of the day because... there's no pre-school in France on Wednesdays and the garderie keeps my little one up until 12:30. So apologies in advance if I'm slow to reply to messages.

mastodon
Ok, ci siamo 😁
Adesso proviamo Mastodon 
Ho già fatto alcune prove con diverse istanze (social, online, fosstodon), ma alla fine ho pensato che mastodon.uno sarebbe stata la più indicata 
Superata la scelta server/istanza e il nick/url (alla fine ho scelto semplicemente "sn"), direi che mi piace 
I've set up a #Patreon page for those who'd like to help support this Mastodon server.
There is only one tier for $4 a month which is less than the cost of a burger at a fast food restaurant.
Joining a membership via this, YT or Odysee will earn you a "Supporter" badge on your RG profile.
This is a long-term project, and it's just getting started 
Unlike "other" retro Mastodon servers, I will not flush your money down the toilet.
Does anyone know where Mastodon admins hang out online?
I'd like to get better at tuning and running my instance, but I'm reaching the limit of how far I can get pulling at web searches. I'm running into some "Why does that tool do that" questions that are hard to sort out.

It's been eight years to the day since Lance Ulanoff, the storied Tech and Social Media Expert and an award-winning tech journalist, decided that Mastodon won't survive because William Shatner couldn't find him on here.
Eight years on, Mastodon stubbornly survives:

Please join me in celebrating the annual Mastodon Won't Survive Day, right here on fedi.

You can optionally set Mastodon to ignore any DMs from accounts you don't follow:
1. Log onto your server’s website or web app
2. Click 🔔 Notifications
3. Click ⚙️ in top right corner of the Notifications section
4. In "Unsolicited private mentions" click the dropdown menu and select "Ignore"
5. When the confirmation box appears, click "Ignore notifications"
If you activate this, you may want to mention it in your profile so people realise their DMs won't get to you.
大家好啊，又经过了好几个月的开发，#Fread 终于支持了 #Bluesky 平台🚀🚀🚀！
目前 Fread 已经支持了 #Mastodon ，#RSS 以及 Bluesky，大家可以更新到最新版 1.3.0 体验。
当然本次大升级除了对 Bluesky 的支持之外还有很多对 UI/UX 的优化。
未来一段时间会支持同实例多账号登录，同时将一条帖子发布到多个账号。

If you want to add extra security to your Mastodon account, you can optionally use "Two-Factor Authentication" (2FA). When you have this feature activated, even if someone else finds out your password they will be unable to log into your account.
There is a complete guide to activating 2FA on Mastodon here:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/using-two-factor-authentication-2fa-on-mastodon
This guide also answers lots of common questions about two-factor authentication 🙂

給聯邦宇宙的新手入門： #Mastodon 篇
當前的聯邦宇宙沒有提供推薦內容，所以要尋找感興趣的內容可以從右邊的「即時內容」點進去，在上方有三個標籤：
- 「本站」就是此站台的使用者張貼的內容
- 「聯邦宇宙」則是其他站台傳過來的內容
- 「全部」就是混合以上兩者的內容
看看是不是有感興趣的內容並跟隨（關注）對方，如果沒有跟隨任何人，首頁就不會出現任何內容。
I recommended #mastodon to a friend. But this time in stand of joinmastodon.org I gave him https://fedi.garden why ? Because if I give him joinmastodon.org I'm sure he will end up on mastodon.social
I started with this server but I shifted from it.
Thanks to @FediGarden for this amazing list.

If you're using Mastodon through your server's website on a computer, you can type emoji directly:
1. Type a colon : and without a space start typing a keyword, this opens a popup
2. Select the emoji you want with the arrow keys and press enter
3. If the one you want isn't there, click the 🙂 icon at the bottom of the post-writing box to open the full picker
The keyword results are partly based on alt-text names of emoji. Hover over an emoji in the picker to see its name.
Arabi.gay is a Glitch Mastodon server for Arabs, people from the SWANA region or Arabic speakers (including all dialects) who are LGBTQIA+. Anyone over 18 is welcome to join.

Lange habe ich #Mastodon mit Posts und Blogposts über die eskalierende #Wasserkrise als Folge der #Klimakatastrophe „genervt“. Nicht nur steigende Temperaturen, sondern die Veränderungen der Wasserkreisläufe würden die Gebirgsregionen treffen.
Nun meldet auch die Stuttgarter Zeitung 🗞️ (22.03.2025, Seite 5): „Gletscherschmelze bedroht Wasserversorgung im Land. Die Landeswasserversorgung (LW) warnt vor Engpässen bei der Trinkwasserversorgung.“ Ja, genau! 😢🔥🇩🇪🇪🇺 https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/warum-der-sueddeutsche-gebirgsraum-besonders-stark-unter-der-klima-und-wasserkrise-leidet/#comment-169526
One of the most overlooked but useful features on Mastodon is "Notes". These let you add private info to profiles which only you can see:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/what-are-notes-on-mastodon-what-does-click-to-add-note-mean-on-mastodon-profiles
A lot of people use notes for keeping track of why they blocked or muted someone, but there are also lots of other purposes.
Notes can be created on the web interface and some third party apps. Just click on the "Add note" section of a profile and type what you want.
