When following back people here, I’m noticing a lot of people haven’t posted anything yet.

If you can’t think of anything to write just yet, then do consider just reblogging (=retweeting!) good content that you see around. You could start with this post, for example, to encourage more people to start sharing content around here.

BTW, as we get the Bylines publications going on here, that will provide ample good news content for the community. 👍👍

Plans to build 'half-a-million pound homes' in a Welsh-speaking village have been rejected amid calls to stop it 'becoming another Abersoch'.

Really important thing you need to know about Mastodon: You don't need to use the official app!

There are some good third party apps listed on Mastodon's own site:

➡️ https://joinmastodon.org/apps

The third party apps have more features and had way more development time.

 Android users might want to start with Tusky and Fedilab

 iPhone/iPad users might want to read this: https://transponderings.blog/2022/05/21/eight-mastodon-apps-for-iphone/

Mastodon is an open platform, so third party apps can use its features fully.

There are literally thousands of people around the world making Mastodon work for everyone who can read this, but in our corner of the Fediverse we owe a debt of gratitude to @hugo , who is the chief, cook and bottlewasher of our hosting service Masto.Host

Please join me and throw a 🙏 or a 👏 his way!

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Nothing to see here, just a 32,000% increase in new users at toot.wales over the last few days 🤯 ✊ 🚀
