Since I can’t post pics this really feels like a cocktail party where you make awkward attempts at conversation repeatedly. Finally you might find someone you know. #newbie

@M_Crouton You may want to try migrating to the sister server of mstdn.social, masto.ai, to help spread the load.

Once you're over there images seem to get through much easier :)

@cactusdan won’t let me sign in

@M_Crouton Won't let you sign in on masto.ai?

You created a new account there, ya?

@M_Crouton I started a few accounts on different servers (instances?) and some work better than others; mas.to got really overwhelmed, kept timing out, and they are doing some fixes; it was my first account and I really had my doubts about the whole mastodon experience at first. Now I am playing around on too many accounts. #noob #newbie I really enjoyed your animal content on 🐦, so hopefully you’ll get to post some soon.
@M_Crouton They're doing upgrades, it'll take a bit but they'll get the option running again
@M_Crouton I was also having trouble posting photos. The upload bar would go to 100 and then just stop. I sent an email to the editor/owner and the next day, I was able to post a photo. I think everything is slow right now with so many new people - I’m new, too. But maybe contact the editor/owner.
@M_Crouton trying to post a photo here, to prove I can. Using my desktop computer. There is a paper clip to do this.
