Is there a keyboard shortcut in the web-interface for "mark all notifications as read?"

The keyboard-shortcuts listed when typing «?» seem spotty at best—j/k doesn't seem to do anything (which in turn doesn't give post-focus for fav/boost/mention/etc functions; alt+x shows the content-warning box; but doesn't un-show it, etc. Some of the work better in the Advanced view rather than the more simple timeline view, but still spotty.

I should know this, but what’s a solid instance for resistance-based accounts?

The flagship instance probably isn’t the best place, right?

So, whether the software is named for the band or for the critter, it's likely one of ours was the vector.

I mention it because one of our local mastodons, Sugar, needs restoration, and I think Mastodon-the-federated-platform would be an ideal place to find generous contributors to the effort:

This first-step fundraiser is for seed money to scope everything and design the restoration and move. Help Sugar!

Is there any way on Mastodon to filter by language? Lemmy and some others allow this feature, but I can’t find anything on here. Any tips/tricks I might be missing?

I would like to see more from certain people I follow but who aren't on my home server.
'Home' gives too much noise
'Live feeds' only gives stuff from my instance.
'Lists' looks like it could work but I can't seem to add people to a list, it just sits there with them greyed out.
Ideas please?

How is it that some Mastodon toots are much longer than the normal 500 character /15 line text limit?

#MastodonHelp Je cherche des tuto pour inciter et aider des débutants à nous rejoindre dans le #Fediverse sur #Mastodon #Friendica #Pixelfed
J'en connais quelques uns mais je suis ouvert à en découvrir d'autres notamment sur Friendica et Pixelfed pouvant séduire des utilisateurs de Facebook Instagram
Je regrouperai ça ensuite dans un article sur mon blog. Merci d'avance

Has anyone written any (command-line) mastodon scripts for doing something like skeeter-deleter (https://github.com/Gorcenski/skeeter-deleter) for mastodon? Basically I don't want the automatic deletion because I want to control what stays and goes and also want to archive as I go. DuckDuckGo and other searches are predictably not great since the most common results are about migration or using the automatic delete functionality. #mastodonhelp
