OkraMonk@brettnelson welcome! It's definitely a learning curve. I recommend that you follow anyone you're interested in seeing posts from, because there's no algorithm to show you their posts otherwise! Also, use hashtags liberally so that people can search for topics that you are discussing, and don't forget to caption your images!
Helpful accounts to follow are @feditips @FediFollows and you can also check out https://fedi.tips

Sheril KirshenbaumYou know what’s great about #mastodon?
I’m greeted w a timeline of friendly folks excited to share cool things: ‘Here’s #music I composed!’ ‘Check out my #art!’ ‘I took this photo of the stars bc #space is magical!’
Even on topics I’m unfamiliar with, the enthusiasm makes me curious to learn more.
I love that this network isn’t set up to encourage snark & reward cruelty. It’s not a race for 🔁 & ❤️ bc they’re not as obvious as on #twitter
It has a real community feel. 2022 needs more of that.
Tuomas TammistoLast year, @hwileniu and I worked with the Helsinki University Press to republish the excellent, but rare volume "Culture and History in the Pacific" (2010 [1990], ed. Jukka Siikala) in digital #openaccess.
The book contains articles by Marilyn Strathern, Aletta Biersack and Valerio Valeri among others.
The page numbers of the new version match the old. With Heikki, we modernized the spelling of Oceanic languages and corrected only obvious mistakes.

Submissions will be evaluated on a rolling base and proposals are welcome at any point up until 31 January 2023 (at 23:59 EEST). Click here to see the full call for proposals
Henrik SchönemannA bit late - but here's my #introduction as an #histodon:
I'm based in Berlin (Humboldt-University) and currently doing stuff in #DigitalHumanities / #DigitalHistory.
Toots and boosts in English and German.
I plan on posting showcases of digital tools/methods - those will be tagged #HistoTools
I'm decidedly #AntiFascist, #queer and pro #OpenData and #OpenAccess : "Sharing isn’t immoral — it’s a moral imperative"

David Ambaras(Reposting from new instance:) Hi, #DigitalHumanities community. I co-direct the project Bodies and Structures: Deep-Mapping Modern East Asian History 2.0 (http://bodiesandstructures.org), which recently completed an NEH DH Advancement Grant (Level II). #SpatialHistory built on Scalar. #histodons
Julian Oliver"When the three researchers laid the map of the internet’s physical infrastructure on top of sea-level rise prediction maps, they saw a striking overlap: Huge sections of important infrastructure were in the places likely to be underwater within 15 years."

Eugen Rochkomastodon.social has once again caught up with real-time. I haven't received the new machine for the database yet (seems like the technical issues unfortunately overlapped with some bank holidays; hopefully tomorrow) but I managed to find a way to optimize some code that seems to have helped. Thank you for being patient, and again, I'm really sorry you couldn't experience Mastodon at its best the past few days on here.
