MastowatchBest of luck to the #MastoAdmin out there installing 4.2.6 today. Check the #Mastowatch directory (doesn’t require Pro!) to see how quickly the big servers are updating and who still needs to.
Seeing a ton of servers upgrade to #Mastodon v4.2.5 already. Quick and easy to scroll through the directory in #Mastowatch and find any stragglers. It hasn’t even been 24 hours though and I’m not seeing many! The security fix in v4.2.5 is being adopted really quickly.
The new @mammoth custom icons on moth.social look great!
I'm so stoked to announce that #Mastowatch is on Cotton Bureau now! The store has all three of the main Mastowatch icons on the super high quality shirts and phone cases everyone expects from Cotton Bureau.

Hey! I’m almost a year old! Thank you so much to everyone who supported #Mastowatch this year. I *never* expected this project to resonate with even a dozen people and you’ve all been great. I continue to get a little jolt of excitement every time I see that someone has mentioned Mastowatch because everyone has been so positive and especially willing to share and recommend the app.
Thanks, y’all 🙏🏻
#mastowatch is a pretty sweet little app that provides all sorts of info on various fediverse instances/servers. One of the more interesting pieces of data it collects is the list of blocked servers for a particular instance. Cool to see the perp lists haha
Be sure to check out #Hoops from Ben at Lumen Digital when it is released soon. You just might see a familiar face courtside!
My favorite Mastodon client (#Ivory) got custom emoji support today! I’m partial but it pairs very well with the Custom Emoji report in #Mastowatch. Use Mastowatch to check out what emoji a server has before you register or move your account and rest assured you’ll be about to use them in @ivory.
VraiI like this place. It’s good. Feels like weird Twitter circa 2013, which is v rad.
And also..
Things that daily impede my Mastodon experience:
- no keyword search
- no search for multiple hashtags
- no date filters
- muted + blocked accounts still appear
- no ability to personally mute en entire instance that’s federated to my home
- blocking filters only for hashtags
- no easy access to view timelines + trending from other instance POV (although #mastowatch helps)
- no ‘historic’ trending
