Interested in all things LGBTQ+๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ Currently doing a masters in Inclusive Education. SENDCo and maths teacher (she/her). I donโ€™t have Instagram so Iโ€™m going to slowly put all my best photos here. Disclaimer: this cat is not mine, I just relate! Please let me know if she lives with you!!!

For anyone who wants to help lighten the load on a Mastodon instance you're using (and perhaps make things snappier for yourself), consider enabling "slow mode" in your appearance settings.

It should seriously cut back on the number of requests the instance is having to fulfill for your browser.

*Looking after everyone*... tiny point you may have missed (I did). Screen readers need capitalization in the hashtags if you smash multiple words

"- using capitalization in your hashtags allows the screen-readers to read them more easily, especially if you're smashing multiple words together. #rockmusic = unreadable. #RockMusic = readable."

Just passing it on ๐Ÿ‘, treat others as you want to be treated ๐Ÿ’œ

@jscholes I appreciate the number of people who are willing to discuss #accessibility on #Mastodon. On other platforms, I would be ignored, except for other #disabled users. On Mastodon, I feel like people are genuinely interested in #learning and #accommodating others to the best of their ability. I hope we donโ€™t lose that part of #MastodonCulture as more and more people #migrate over.
I keep hearing that #Mastodon is not likely to replace #Twitter. To that I say: so what?
I've been contributing to the #Linux desktop for the last 15 years not because it's likely to replace #Windows, but because providing people with free desktop is the right thing to do.
I use and support Mastodon not because it's likely to replace Twitter, but because it's a social network done right.
People grumbling that #Mastodon is slow at the moment... You just turned up with 1 million people in a tiny, rural village and you're complaining there's a queue to get into the only tearoom, which is run by gay pensioners Babs & Maureen as a retirement hobby on Mons-Weds. Relax!

Honestly, is there ever a bad time to post a pic of a blue-footed booby?

#BirdsOfMastodon

We deserve a society where LGBTQ+ people can hold hands with their partner (or partners) without fear and with only pure joy and love.๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€โšง๏ธ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿฆ„

WIRED just published my beginner's guide to Mastodon! Thank you to the 100+ people who responded to my request for tips and advice for understanding the culture here. https://www.wired.com/story/how-to-get-started-use-mastodon/

Teaching is tough.

Donโ€™t forget that, sometimes. Itโ€™s not a breeze, it wonโ€™t always be easy. Even on the best days itโ€™s hard work.

Cut yourself some slack.
