Timothy Perfittso i registered macadmin.social and was going to set up a mastodon server for the apple community. then i realized i would have to be an admin and moderate. anyone interested in joining me? seems like a good way to spend the 4k app store settlement check i got. 😜
Tom@tperfitt this feels like a trap, and yet, I would help.
David Nelson@tperfitt I had a similar (fleeting) thought about an instance for Mac Admins, but dismissed it as being too much work. I would certainly join and I would be happy to help where I can, though with a two-year-old in the house I couldn’t exactly have eyes on it 24/7. 🫠
Kevin M. Cox@tperfitt It would make the local timeline a lot more relevant.
@kevinmcox also hashtags. i run my own instance and hashtags are only shown for people my instance knows about which is very limited since it is really just me. i have thought about switching to something else but there is no macadmin focused instance, which is where most of my circle is.
@tperfitt Definitely keep me on your list of interested parties if you decide to move forward with it. 😊
Dean Amiridis@tperfitt That’s a pretty cool idea. I’ve been looking for a good apple/tech driven server. A lot of these are just overcrowded servers with no real…”world” around it. Not like it matters, but it would be cool to make use of the federated timelines ;-)
Ben Rush@tperfitt I'd chip in.
Mat X@continuity0 @tperfitt I would help. I love community building and helping our MacAdmins fun loving nerd bunch 🥰
far_north@tperfitt Was kind of thinking something along same lines myself just this week. Defo up to be involved and help
AnthonyReimer@tperfitt I’m not willing to give a firm yes, but I would seriously consider it.
Jerry Morrison@tperfitt I’m a Mac admin and manage a small team of Mac admins. I love this idea and would be willing to help where I can if possible!
Damien Barrett@tperfitt Sign me up. I'd be happy to help moderate.
GingerScripting@tperfitt I would love to help. This sounds like a great idea and could arguably make Mastodon an even more useful place than Twitter in its heyday.
IDGAF Certified@tperfitt I volunteer as tribute.
christos drosos 💿
Adam@tperfitt I'm down.
Adam Codega@tperfitt "We only allow one macadmin on this server."
@adamcodega macadmins.social was taken 🥲
William Smith@tperfitt @adamcodega Look up who owns it. I bet someone in the community claimed it for the same reason and might be willing to hand over control to an organized group.
Jeremy, aka Jaharmi@tperfitt Hm. Does it take more than three programmable buttons to accomplish this?
