Mastodon advice requested! When I search a hashtag, is there a way to filter the results so I can look at only those posted by individual humans, not corporations or organizations or business accounts?

@thunderbird @shojiwax I didn’t think to tag you. Thanks for following the hashtag! #MastodonAdvice

Can’t wait for the iOS app. Will settle for ThunderCast episodes!

Mastodon friends, I just realised my old profile on mastodon.scot is still up there. I switched instances years ago. Maybe I did it wrong or thought I had to keep both. I don’t remember! Is it easy to deleted the original? I don’t want people following that one instead of this account-and it seems the .scot one is very search engine optimised. Advice please! 🙏🏻 #mastodon #ChangingInstances #MastodonAdvice

@pkreissel made an algorithm for mastodon to free us from the tyranny of reverse chronological order and it's totally awesome.

IMHO a customizable algorithm is the only thing mastodon needs to really take things to the next level.

Is there a way to view/use feautured hashtags on mobile? On my phone I can’t see them anywhere. (And on my ipad I only see max three.)
Is it a limitation of the mobile web interface or the default app? (If so, what’s the ‘best’ mastodon app for iOS?)

@FediTips maybe you know the answer? 😊

The use of real names on Mastodon?

I received a (mild) rebuke recently for always referring to my wife here as Mrs Mike.
I always refer to my children as son and daughter.
This set me thinking.

Is it wrong to depersonaluse them like this?

I do it to protect their anonymity.
My wife volunteers at the interface of criminal justice and social services.
My daughter has long term psychiatric issues relating to an abusive marriage.
My son's wife is a police officer who is 'very strongly advised' to obfuscate her own social media life

Should I carry on as I am, give them back their identities, or give them 'false names'?

I"m not satisfied by Mastodon. I thought i would have more engagement on it for the lack of algorithms. Is it because hip hop is a niche topic on the platform or my posts are simply not interesting. If it's the later, how can i improve my posts.
