Enjoying the new “For You” feed with the new @mammoth update so far. Seems like a decent addition 👍

So we just took in a 14 year old cat 🐈 with renal failure for end of life foster care. She probably only has 1 year left in her poor old girl. Couldn’t let her die terrified in a cage at the shelter though. So she’s coming home with us for lots of love and a family of brothers and sisters 🥰

Masto/Fedi pundits: No, not like that.
Well after reading a bit more about mastodon. This whole thing still is confusing me. All I’m seeing is just posts from a handful of people and that’s it. Then when I go to federated, I just get a bunch of non-English posts, even though my settings are apparently set to show only English posts 😵💫 #help #confused
Not something I ever thought I’d see 🤷♂️

Australian health minister is useless
Media Release: Health Experts Ignored as Health Minister Mark Butler’s Addiction to Tobacco Taxes Exposed — Legalise Vaping Australia
Today’s media reports of the Health Minister ignoring the advice of his own expert health committee on vaping policy, is evidence that the only thing he cares about is protecting the Australian Government’s addiction to tobacco taxes.
Brendan Jones#Tips for the best ways to access #Mastodon:
Using Mastodon on mobile? I highly recommend using an app, and not the official one. My personal favourite is Woolly for iOS @woollyapp, many other great ones exist like Ivory or Ice Cubes.
Using Mastodon in your web browser? The native interface isn’t great, try elk.zone or phanpy.social on both mobile and desktop.
Using a computer and want an app? Woolly, Mona and Ivory are great options.
@mammoth hey is this random middle grey bit supposed to be here or no? It looks out of place, I’m not sure why it’s there when the buttons are above? Is it a bug or an app setting I can change to turn it off? 👍
