Hello everyone, especially newcomers to the #fediverse,

Since you don't even know what
#Sharkey is, it is a soft fork of #Misskey that is partially compatible with Mastodon API.

Both Mastodon and Sharkey are different. The UI of Sharkey is complex while Mastodon is simple.

The main difference between them is the emoji reactions, instead of just favorite, there are a lot of reactions.

My goal is to encourage everyone to learn the basics of posting on decentralized social media.

Unlike popular social media sites, it is recommended to tag sensitive topics as "Content Warning".

Also please remember to tag sensitive media as possible.

And lastly remember to add alt text to media because there are a lot of people with visual impairment.

Something I see on Facebook, and I am starting to see on the Fediverse.

" Resistance is futile "
The individual will tell you everything is American, and incorporate, sponsored, developed, made in, America. That it is too hard and too complicated and impossible to turn your back on the United States, along with Donald Trump's regime, and that because it is "futile", you should not try.

I BLOCK these people.

This is how you run a Fedi website outside Us Jurisdiction.

mk.absturztau.be = Domain (.be) name is Belgium, while hosted in Switzerland, and the hosting provider is governed under the laws of Switzerland.

mastodon.au = Domain (.au) name is Australia, while hosted in Australia, and the hosting provider is governed under the laws of Australia.

Remember, Dot Com, Net, Org, Info, Us, and Edu is governed by the United States of America. Most word-based domain names, for example, Dot Social, managed by Corporations within the USA.

Ich weiß, lange Texte sind im Fediverse nicht bei allen beliebt. Manche betonen immer wieder, das sei doch kein „Microblogging“ mehr. Aber mal ehrlich: Seit wann ist das Fediverse eine reine Microblogging-Plattform?
Ich kenne nicht alle Zugangssoftwares, aber soweit ich weiß, unterstützen zum Beispiel #Sharkey, #Misskey, #Catodon, #Iceshrimp und auch #Friendica lange Texte ganz wunderbar. Auch meine eigene #Mastodon-Instanz habe ich ordentlich aufgebohrt – mit ein paar tausend Zeichen, weil Mastodon ja leider immer noch an seinem 500-Zeichen-Limit festhält.

Und bitte versteht mich nicht falsch: Das ist kein Bashing gegen Mastodon! Es geht mir eher darum, den Blick dafür zu öffnen, dass das Fediverse viel mehr ist als nur ein Ort für Kurztexte. Es ist vielfältig, offen – ein Raum für alle möglichen Ausdrucksformen. Und dazu gehören eben auch längere Gedanken.

Neulich habe ich sogar gelesen, dass jemand alle Accounts blocken will, die lange Texte posten. Das hat mich echt irritiert. Warum diese Abwehr gegen Tiefe und Details? Ich persönlich liebe längere Texte – beim Schreiben ebenso wie beim Lesen. Sie geben mir die Möglichkeit, wirklich in Themen einzutauchen, mich auszudrücken, zu erzählen.

Das #Fediverse lebt doch gerade von dieser Vielfalt, oder? Lasst uns das feiern – in 500 Zeichen oder in 5.000. 💛

If you're thinking of starting a website, it would be best for you to pick a country level domain extension, as opposed to a word-based domain extension.

Corporations can be bought, sold, influenced, regulated, and shutdown, overnight. If avoiding Donald Trump's possible madness is your goal, you don't want to be back into a corner with Corporate America.

Many people, unfortunately, do not read legal documentation. It has become human nature to simply click "OK, I agree".

If more folks did read their terms of services, you would know word-based domain name extensions are not managed the same way as normal with the protection of ICANN.

As it stands now, if Donald Trump really lost his mind, he could shut down much of the Fediverse.
