My caricature of The West Wing's Toby Ziegler, as played by Richard Schiff. Richard liked it and asked if he could own it, so now he does.

@marthaharbison who knows how long this moment lasts but this is the most fun and weird that Online has felt in a long long time and I'm just trying to enjoy it all!

The fact Mastodon encourages people to *boost* posts, rather than retweet them, is significant. It's no longer about hammering people with an argument - look at how many other people agree with me, over and over and over - it's about promoting, supporting, validating, rewarding people for saying interesting and worthwhile things.

That is a *huge* difference.

I'm still learning my way around Mastodon and just discovered that I can visit an individual server and click on its Local feed link. This is a great way to find people to follow. For example: https://astrodon.social/public/local
Astrodon - The Astro Community

A Mastodon community server for anyone interested in astronomy, astrophysics, astrophotography, and adjacent sciences.

Mastodon hosted on astrodon.social
science defines a baby as "a small smooth poopy man, no taller than a lamp"

Hashtags are great and should also be used liberally -that's how we find stuff we're interested in, across the fediverse. HOWEVER, Hashtags [can be difficult for people with visual impairment or ND people] so please use them [most of them] at the end of your post, in a hashtag block, not scattered throughout. One or two are okay.
Edited to add: CamelCase is more important for screenreaders!

Shit, my entire career has been exposed.
Did you know #Mastodon supports #rss? just add `.rss` to any profile, like https://macaw.social/@junosz.rss
I keep seeing lots of long-time #fediverse users saying 'don't favourite posts it does nothing' but actually when you favourite my posts it makes me smile and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
