My day job is as an application engineer. The rest of my time is spent seeking peace, knowledge, and laughter!

UNLIKE Twitter spambots, we have GOOD bots here on the Fediverse!

Bots that post goodness on your timeline:
- @TinyForest
- @EmojiAquarium
- @TinyPettingZoo

Also, cute hourly animals:
- @hourlywolves
- @toomanyfoxes
- @HourlyYotes
- @HourlyRedPandas

In addition, there are many bots that mirror Twitter accounts to ease the transition!

There is also this great tool that helps you find people you know on Twitter:

Please boost to share!

Be excellent to each other and party on dudes.

Not too easy to find moss in California, but I located some at the Mission at San Juan Capistrano!
Oh dear. I've just been informed that collecting the names of every person on the planet for my naughty and nice lists is, and I quote, “a significant and wholly irresponsible breach of #GDPR “.
I'm going to hand out about 8 billion consent forms soon. If you could all get them back to me ASAP that would be appreciated.

The third party Android app Tusky has just been updated to version 20 in Google Play.

The new version allows you to follow hashtags within the app itself, instead of having to log in through the website first. ("Click on a hashtag and then on the icon in the toolbar.")

The third party app Fedilab also supports this.

If you are still using the official Android app, you might want to try Tusky or Fedilab instead.

(For F-Droid users, Tusky should be updated there soon.)

Happy 2nd #BlackFriday to the #BlackMastodon crew!

Hey all. . . if you haven't done it yet, make sure to add #NoBots on your profile. This prevents the friendly bots from following you.

I still haven't figured out a way to avoid the aggressive #bots from following me. . . So let me know if you have any #tips

Twitter was special. But it's time to leave

Tweets were always short-lived. Turns out Twitter was too.
