Well, #TheForkiverse is an unmoderated cesspool, as was predicted to happen.

Time for #fediblock

Hi everyone,

If you are using hastags with multiple words, please use camel case.

#LikeThisExample

Not #likethisexample

Why?

A) Screen readers will see a bunch of letters that doesn't make one word and read out each individual letter. Which makes it hard to understand.

B) For us sighted people, it is also easier to read.

Thanks you

If you're posting an image or video on here, please remember to add a text description for people who cannot see. Blind people use the internet through screen reader software which reads text out loud.

The level of detail needed depends on the image, but generally you should try to explain whatever is important and relevant in the picture.

If you forget a description, just edit the post and add it in afterwards!

#TheForkiverse

A month ago there was a lot of buzz on the Fediverse about a new Mastodon server set up by prominent journalists: #TheForkiverse.

There was a rush of sign-ups: nearly 10,000 users in a couple of weeks. People new to the Fediverse, willing to try it out.

It's been hard to gauge how active it still is... so this morning I re-downloaded @IceCubesApp so I could browse their local timeline.

I've been liking and replying to recent posts. Just doing my little in making them feel seen and welcome 🤗

Make silly things like my daughter did here using this new thing I made using Claude Code
