@nomenloony@nomenloony.com @nomenloony@nomenloony.live (I meant boosts as in reshares, not bots 8-) bots also have their role, but boosts are basically what ends up taking posts under the eyes of, shall we say, “unappreciative” people.)
2 questions for all that read it:Did you not post or reply much on previous social media? Specifically, out of concerns around data collection.And if so, does that habit still influence how you post on the Fedi?#Question #Fediverse #Fedi #Mastodon #SocialMedia

@PaulaToThePeople totally agreeI worked on dairy bacterial tests for a couple of years and collected samples from dairies all over. The recent article on a baby that 'may' have died because of a glass of raw milk the mother drank is such a sad joke. If people were generally aware of the insane load of these pathogens like listeria that are allowed in US milk and probably everywhere else it would kill the milk industry. Most of the contamination is coming from growth in the lines of the machines they use to pasturize or sterilize which are difficult to clean. Killing the dairy industry would be a great contribution to lowering carbon polution since dairy cows are largely kept inside many industrial countries and the petrol used to raise their grain, keep them clean, mulch their manure and dead, and harvest the milk is outrageous compared to the food value.

I'm always surprised that other social media platforms need algorithms to get you addicted to them.I'm addicted to Mastodon with no algorithm needed. Well done you weird, lovely, smart folks!#SocialMedia #Mastodon #Fediverse
I just signed up for the #FediForum "Un-Workshop" coming up in March. Who else is planning to sign in?🙋♀️🙋♂️🙋♀️🙋♂️🙋♀️🙋♂️"Growing the Open Social Web" was already on my bingo card for 2026. I have my own ideas, but I'm more excited to hear what others have to say.https://fediforum.org/2026-03-growing-open-social-web/If we blame misinformation on social media for the trouble in our democracies, then growing the #Fediverse (responsibly) may be our best path forward.

@jon a bit off topic, but there's apparently some weird interaction between blog federation, quote toots and some Mastodon version: the blog post QTed in your post appears as “removed by its author” even though I can actually load it in my instance and it shows up properly quoted on your instance (see attached screenshot).cc @pfefferle since my understanding is that the Vivaldi blog is WordPress
