Ever since joining here I :RedCrystalHeart: the , culture of , especially encouraging the use of alt text on media uploads, using content warnings, how we can communicate with other servers from our own, and how "quote-tooting" and plaintext searching were deliberately omitted to prevent the problem of harassment as seen on the . Mastodon is awesome! :RedCrystalHeart: :mastodon:

Another thing I LOVE about is how searches for phrases in posts were deliberately excluded, and not just to stop harassment – it also stops bot spam.

Back on the , especially in its and corners, you'd get comments and DMs from bot accounts if you included phrases like "I need new music", "NFT", "Crypto" because they search by keywords, but over here you only search by hashtags you include in your toots or very specific toot URLs which I love!

For all new users from the I highly recommend reading fedi.tips to get an understanding of how Mastodon works!

It's part of something called the which has a bit of a learning curve to it, and @​feditips does an excellent job explaining it as well as the general culture of Mastodon and where to start.

Welcome to Mastodon! You'll love it here :RedCrystalHeart: :mastodon:

Despite the seeming to slow down, I'm still posting more and more here on .

I love it's uplifting culture (nothing but drama and people finding things to hate on back on the ), wholesome userbase, accessibility, its decentralisation, and most importantly, no AIs or algorithms burying posts! :mastodon: :RedCrystalHeart:

I just got banned from posting on for a week for posting the link to @​elonjet's YouTube stream tracking 's jet 😂

Got banned for "posting private information" but the stream shows publicly-available information 🤡

:birdsite:

Screenshot showing MOULE's Twitter profile is banned for a week for "violating rules against posting private information". For context, the "offending" Tweet was a link to a YouTube livestream tracking Elon Musk's jet, which in turn uses public information, not private.
Another screenshot showing that MOULE had to delete the Tweet containing the link to the livestream before a counter of 7 days would begin before his Twitter account is re-opened.

I've been meaning to post to the hashtag for a while...I've also noticed it's gained traction back on the as well! :birdsite:

Here's a I found in outside a church, courtesy of Google Maps since I accidentally deleted my own photo. 🤣
