This is one of the most spectacular sunsets I ever saw while working at ESO's Paranal Observatory in Chile.

The Atacama Desert is extremely dry, but clouds do show up sometimes. That day there were several dark clouds releasing very light rain that vaporised before reaching the ground. These wispy veils (called "virga") were lit by the golden sunset light, creating a lovely contrast with the blue sky above.

#feditips for new people: One of the most powerful things about the fediverse's anti-harassment tools is that you can block entire poorly-moderated instances at once. Look for "domain blocks," "instance mutes," or similar in your settings; this applies based on the domain name (which you can see after the second @ in a username), rather than individual users.

Twitter has algorithms to get you engaged. Mastodon does not. So in order to enjoy Mastodon you have to take some time to reach out and find content and follow folks that you enjoy. Don't expect Mastodon to send you random popular posts to keep you engaged, you have to curate your own feed. But this is good! It gives you control.

I've always liked Pinafore for Mastodon, especially for phone/mobile (https://pinafore.social/), but if you're coming from Twitter and feeling super disoriented or overwhelmed by the UI, Halcyon seems amazing - https://halcyon.cybre.space/
