At the risk of being brutally cancelled by the pet lovers of Mastodon, I really, really wish people would add generic hashtags like 'cat' or 'dog' to their photos of cats or dogs.

My vast 'Don't Show Cats & Dogs' filter now includes specific crossbreeds, for goodness' sake.

I helped my Mom upgrade her phone today. She's switching from a 22-year-old Nokia 3310e to a 2-year-old iPhone SE. Tomorrow I'm going to show her how to use the new one, which should be... interesting.

Toot is a Mastodon client with a pretty TUI, and a CLI with lots of fancy features - e.g. you can post multiple images, with descriptions & sensitivity flags. Handy for scheduled/automated posts, crossposting.

Handy: you can filter emoji on Mastodon.

E.g., you can get rid of those annoying tweet-toots from folk using Mastodon Twitter Crossposter by filtering the 'link' and 'bird' emoji.
