When I post my “informed” views on politics, I use a filter to protect the sanity of others.

But pictures of my dog are always unfiltered, straight from the source.

Happy weekend to everyone in the #fediverse, thank you for taking in so many of us the past few weeks!

Could I tempt you to boost this post, or get involved in a project to customise Linux for users with special needs/learning difficulties? I have two such children. Adults now (18). I want to do something for my boys and for people like them. 🙂❤️

I've already done a bit, using Ansible, with AlmaLinux and Ubuntu: https://github.com/robpomeroy/BrightOS

Please spread the word - I'm sure someone out there would love to get involved!

Another thing I'm learning about #mastodon

Toots are deleted automatically after a set period (the default appears to be 2 weeks) unless you (again default setting) favourite, pin or bookmark your own toots.

Designed to help with server capacity but also makes it harder for people to dig up something you may have posted years ago (as is done in the Bad Place).

I love Mastodon. It's less toxic, until someone you blocked on the bird site finds you here.

You can't recall all the toxic people you blocked there, until they out themselves on here.

2nd block has just occurred because I won't let people tarnish my experience on here.

Given that we are rapidly trying to build community here…

Can I ask you to do two key things:

1) Reshare other people’s posts - so your timeline is rich with other people’s posts for anyone browsing your content to discover.

2) Follow, follow, follow. That goes for following those posting good stuff - and also following those that follow you (as much as practically possible/sensible).

If you do these things, you’ll help us all network up at fast pace - and we all grow our voices & reach. ✌️

This crop didnt work on instagram .. so I don’t tgink anyone saw it …Any boosts.. reposts appreciated… If you deem it worthy
