dogtrax@Mastodon #MastodonMemory A year? Wow. The very first time a friend here shared #smallstories hashtag, I realized that a little corner of focused writing with narrow lens (but wider arc) might emerge in this corner of this world. It has.
Kate@dogtrax @Mastodon I remember writing the first #smallstories and thinking: this could be a thing.
And you can't make a thing like this by yourself.
Algot (Still)@katebowles @dogtrax @Mastodon
Thank you, Kate of the 3D glasses. 😉
#smallstories is a tag which has more "stick" than most for me.
When you mark a post with a star, what is your primary intent?
☐ Approval
☐ Tagging for later reflection
☐ Seeking further interaction
☐ Other
inmysocks Of Doom, Naked KSC@Algot @dogtrax @katebowles @celesteh either approval or just a general acknowledgement I guess. I don't really have a clear idea of a general meaning for it.
@inmysocks @dogtrax @katebowles
@celesteh got me thinking about it. Even though it's text is "Favourite", the star seems to be less a simple "like" system in the fediverse.
@Algot @katebowles @celesteh @inmysocks First two boxes ... check ... but I don’t really know why I do it ...
@dogtrax @inmysocks @celesteh @Algot
I star things here because I'm saying "someone heard you". It's like making eye contact with strangers in public: recognising the human. I'm saying I might not approve, but I get that you care about this. I see you there.
I do it here very differently than on Twitter, where I'm mostly bookmarking.
@Algot @celesteh @inmysocks @dogtrax
I live in a small street. Many of us know each other a bit. When we drive into the street, we greet each other with a nod or a wave. When we see each other elsewhere, we nod.
I use the favourite function here as a kind of nod, a solidarity.
Downes 🍁@Algot @dogtrax @katebowles @celesteh @inmysocks
I rarely if ever use the star icon. It's not that I don't like things, it's just that I don't like to play favourites. #truestory
@Downes @inmysocks @celesteh @dogtrax @Algot I like its economy when human bandwidth is at capacity.
DJ Sundog@katebowles @Mastodon @dogtrax #smallStories is still my favorite hashtag in the 'verse to be honest.
Fisher Root@Mastodon El primer año de existencia, siempre se recuerda de una forma especial, al igual que el primer día en que entré a esta red social, cuando me encantó su elegante diseño y buen desempeño.
Esperemos sean muchos años más, los que conmemoremos y celebremos, la evolución de esta libre plataforma social. ☺🎂🎆
Icarus@Mastodon None, I'm new.
🐚 ms_xenophora 🐚@Mastodon There was the time I saw that adorable dog/cat/chinchilla/parrot/bunny/rat photo and I just grinned like a perfect fool.
Oh, wait. That's every day here. 😉
d4klutz@Mastodon I have met cool people..
INACTIVE@Mastodon wow, 2 years already? That's wild.
Umgezogen @@Mastodon Unluckily I missed when this post came up he first time even if I've been already here then but let's answer this now.
#MastodonMemory When I joined more than a year ago,it was the first time ever I used a social network and it felt great.I've never been on Twitter or Facebook and I still don't use them.I like how nice the people here are and I love the nerdy topics.Now I'm a open source developer with some Fediverse projects.Without Mastodon I would have never got into open source programming.
