I met Mastodon in 2022 and registered in metalhead.club, but as the most servers out there, it didn't let me write more than 666 characters (xD funny, isn't it? 😈 ). So I started looking for an instance that would allow me to write longer and that was aligned with my interests. I found one and migrate: a server specialized in music. But... sadly, my "political" opinions were not welcome due to its content restrictions... That was disappointing. That's why I'm here now, in beige.party, a highly recommended server by several contacts I had in metalhead.club. They were right, so here I am, starting from scratch again. I'm just waiting for the 30 days period Mastodon takes to allow a new migration.

I'm beginning to post exclusively here, so I will post a statement on my other account to let my followers know that they can find me here from now on.

Thank you for having me here! Greetings from Chile, South America.

Is this a good time to ask when the Epstein files are going to be released?

A free press isn’t free when a few corporations or billionaires control most news. Ownership limits, fair taxation, and support for independent, cooperative, or public outlets are essential. Journalism must serve citizens, not concentrated power.

#Mastodon and #Fedierse coders: how hard would it be for a semi-techy person like me (barely know any languages but could put together something in Python) to create a bot that scrapes toots with certain hashtags? Also, I'm concerned about violating TOS or #privacy...

All these awesome song-related events like #ThursdayFiveList, #JukeboxFridayNight, #tunetuesday, etc. generate beautiful, borderline unusable lists of fascinating songs. It would be cool to make a bot that scraped all the titles from, say, #thursdayfivelist, and put them in a playlist. Or just a big document/web page with song.link URLs.

How much pain and frustration would I be bringing on myself?

So, a cool idea from @cliffwade is to post 3-5 hashtags that you regularly use when you post things.

Here are mine:
#ACNH
#KPop
#Manga
#Music
#VideoGames

Please #boost so others across the #Fedierse can find more folks who share their interests!

Throwing this out again.

Anyone on the #Fedierse use any #Kaseya products/services? I would like to connect!

I have a question for #SFBA members and the broader #Fedierse & #MastoAdmin community. This isn’t as an SFBA admin, just a curious fedi user. We arn’t crafting policy from this.

How would you feel about an algorithm/AI/system scanning an instances feed and filing reports based off the code of conduct, with context and links for moderators to review? With proper disclosures on the about page and a good effort to make it known.

Note, this would only be reporting. The computer would have no mod powers
