@miketannenbaum feel free! Just make sure to correct the typo first 😬

I'm no longer wondering if I'm on the right mastodon instance. I've moved to #philly focused one: jawns.club. Instance as locality feels like the perfect fit. Instance == neighborhood. Please follow me over there! @mattmcmanus

Imagining if Mastodon called instances "neighborhoods" instead. The metaphor works really well IMO and doesn't sound like robot-speke.

Considering a Philly-centric Masodon instance called jawns.club. Would be public and moderated (account invite by request) so I don't really wanna run it alone.

Anybody interested? Anybody wanna co-moderate? Must love Philly, have some experience and interest in communities. Actively avoiding an all white dudes membership and mod crew from day 0, so let's play.

@alexhillman I'd be interested! Instances by locality seem like such a better idea that "topics". If you needed help with the tech side, I'd be happy to contribute some time

@bastianallgeier I've setup accounts on most of them. They have a "I'm on a different instance" setting, eg: https://mastodon.technology/@mattmcmanus

Going from Twitter to Mastodon helps me remember a time when Twitter was a less well tuned dopamine delivery system, without the constant barrage of ego gratification, outrage and novelty. It competes by doing less

@edwellbrook @TrentWalton I’d happily test an app if that would be helpful. I’ve settled on Amaroq but would easily switch to a new client.

My favorite things about Mastodon, Vol №1

1. Per post privacy settings!
2. Delete & re-draft (includes original post text, privacy settings, etc. in new draft)
3. Structure profile metadata! (via @hankchizljaw)
