I'm struggling with Mastodon but I'll persevere for a while. Here is a painting of a crow.
@kathyartist What are you struggling with? I still find that there's not a lot of content I can engage with, despite the new influx of Twitter people - perils of it still not being very big. But that's also quite nice in that it's homely. Can I help?
@kathyartist @galadhir Mastodon- the fediverse is pretty… enormous. I suggest searching Hashtags to find things you are interested and creating lists. Those of us from Twitter are used to lists being used as weapons (I remember having to take myself off a lot of lists to avoid harassment)here- I put all my statistics ppl into a list, really quite nice-because I chose the list- rather than getting a feed “suggested” to me in an effort to keep me on site viewing ada
@Htaggert @kathyartist Perhaps I should say then that there aren't many people on the hashtags that I am interested in. No one has updated the #canals hashtag this week, and my #signwriting #calligraphy list has had two toots on it in days. It's probably not helped by the fact that over here on we're defederated from @mastodon.social, so we're not seeing some of the biggest places on the Fediverse. But I like my cozy little enclave. I'm not complaining about that :)
@galadhir @Htaggert @kathyartist I found this thread by searching for #Narrowboat and I’m on Mastodon.social. I thought I understood how this worked, but now I’m confused… :-)
