So here's a random thing that I learnt yesterday. Compasses are region-specific and the needle will "stick" if a normal compass is used in the wrong region! Australia and New Zealand are in magnetic zone 5. If you want a #compass that works anywhere in the world, it needs to have a "global needle", which is built a bit differently to account for the problem of the magnet aiming directly through the earth to magnetic north and dragging the needle down with it.
Brian C. Keegan, Ph.D.It’s never not going to be funny that after years of hype about crypto-metaverse-subscriptions disrupting web2 incumbents, the backstop to Twitter’s sudden implosion was volunteers recreating Usenet with RSS.
[REDACTED]™, Instance MigratorI don't know how many times I can scream it but for anyone new here from the latest #twittermigration #twitterexodus here is the best advice for having an awesome time on this site:
Find a #hashtag you like that may be part of your interests (e.g. - #mst3k, #ukraine, #breakingnews) and click it. Then look for the little dude in the top right of the feed and SMASH HIM
Suddenly any post with the hashtag will be in your main feed regardless of who you follow. And around here #HASHTAGS ARE USEFUL! No reason to spam when there's no ad revenue or #algorithm!
And this place has another awesome feature: TIMED MUTES/BLOCKS
If you don't want to see someone's stuff for an hour or so, just choose to keep them quiet for a bit.
Say they're annoying you with #protips about #mastodon but you know their #ADHD will force them to move onto #Mosstodon by lunch... MUTE THEM UNTIL LUNCH 
Just set it and forget it and then they'll show up again!
Again, the three tips for achieving #JohnMastodon's grand vision:
1) Boost
2) Follow
3) Post with #hashtags
Enjoy!

Kyle HughesMovetodon is the best tool to use to follow people you follow on Twitter on Mastodon. It all happens in the web app: no CSVs required. All the tools sound the same, and the rest use CSVs, so bookmark this one.
Jim AcostaJust signed up for Mastodon. Hope it doesn’t become a dumpster fire like twitter. This feels like that movie where the humans have to go find another planet suitable for life after messing things up on earth.
Joan MastodonPro-Elon trolls are joining the #TwitterMigration so here's your regular reminder to block and report them immediately. If a server continuously fails to take action against abuse, block that server and demand your instance admin do the same.
Here, we're the content moderation. I've got major respect for the folks who built this place because, while the rest of us were complaining over on the #birdsite, they were successfully de-federating Gab.
Let's continue this proud #Fediverse tradition.
