Let's do an #introduction! I'm Tom, an engineering leader with a focus on the web. I love all things platform & SRE, and mainly work in #golang and #ruby.

In my spare time I like flying virtual planes (cos I'm a massive geek) and being a Scout Leader helping young people develop #SkillsForLife.

Lifelong dream to retire to the #EastCoast and I still can't quite believe we get to live in #NovaScotia now instead of 30 years from now. Feeling awfully lucky.

Where do you live in #NovaScotia and what do you love about it?

Tip for the new folk:
Often Mastodon’s features work the way they do because it was first populated by people who had been harassed on FB and the Birdsite.

For instance (not sorry), you cannot search Masto for a simple term. Only #hashtags. Say you’re having a private conversation about iguanas. Anti-iguana trolls will not be able to search for “iguanas”, find your conversation, and drop into it to say, “Iguana luvers suck!”

But if you are wanting to connect with new iguana fanciers on Mastodon, slipping an #iguanas hashtag somewhere into your posts will allow people to search for and find them.

Lotta talk about replacing Twitter.

The better dialogue is how to get people to re-evaluate how they engage with the internet.

Personally, I'm convinced of two things:

- You can't 1:1 replace Twitter unless it's a similar top-down walled garden.

- Most people probably shouldn't want a Twitter replacement, since Twitter is bad for us.

Instead of finding/molding/creating a replacement, we should encourage people (and ourselves!) to focus on what they like most about internet interaction.
