Writing about mastodon funnily enough, federation, affordances, disinfo and misinfo, and WhatsApp
Korny Sietsmaso, trying to grok mastodon and work out how to tailor my feed a bit!
I've found a useful overview at https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/GuideToMastodon/ - any other good intros people suggest?

MistySince there’s a lot of new people trying out Mastodon, something to be cautious about: your DMs can be read by admins of your instance and the instance of the recipient, and when your toots cross an instance boundary, it’s possible for your private toots to get boosted. Some of the privacy guards in place on platforms you’ve used before don’t work the same here.

Mastodon•ART 🎨 CuratorWe're seeing a pretty huge influx of new users right now. In 'normal times' we get maaaaybe 10 new users a day. We've had 300 in the past four hours.
If you'd like to help with server costs, we take donations at Patreon and Liberapay:

Anything at all is massively welcome - this is an entirely community-funded instance run by myself and a few mods in our spare time. <3
