Hi, the Mastodons. I don't know how this works yet or how active I'll be here, but I thought I'd introduce myself.
I'm a UK-based female AuDHD adult, choosing to remain mostly anonymous. I'm really just curious about how the Fediverse works - I can be ambivalent about social media but I thought this sounded refreshing in contrast to the big, powerful platforms which feel scarier to me by the minute. I've also been getting to grips with Linux recently, and am thinking about other ways within my limited means and courage to try to be involved with more of the small things that are about moving away from exploitation and towards caring for each other.
Take care out there :)

@MelodicDinosaur hi, and welcome!
I’m sure you’ll find it nice here. You’ve done the best first thing and done an intro post!

@MelodicDinosaur Hii, I can recommend you fedi tips website, they have mastodon account also where they post tutorials and tips about fediverse.
I recommend to follow hashtags and people you find interesting, block and mute content and people you don't want to see and try to engage with people in comments.
Hope you will enjoy being on mastodon.

@MelodicDinosaur do you know about hashtags around here? The algo is chronological so tags are very helpful. Such as #actuallyAutistic or #AuDHD . There are a bunch of great weird ones too, #lichensubscribe (for lichen pics), #asstodon (donkey pics), #caturday (which today is). Check out @FediTips if ever you feel lost (:

@MelodicDinosaur Hi there! The Fediverse is nice because you can make it as big or as small as you want it to be. I interact with a handful of folks, and that's my Goldilocks zone.
I struggle a lot with needing to know what the protocols, procedures and customs around certain things are. At least for me, there hasn't been too much friction along those lines here, which has made it an enjoyable place to hang out.
Hope it's a good experience for you, too!

@MelodicDinosaur
MD, your intentions, approach to social media, and interest in Linux all make you an ideal candidate to join the Fediverse.
I, for one, hope that your experience here will be rewarding for you, and that you will benefit greatly from being involved in this community. -

@MelodicDinosaur hello, welcome, don’t worry if it takes a while to find your way round. Following hashtags is a good way to see lots of relevant posts before you figure out who you want to follow.
Hope you have fun -

Rupert Lane reconstructed the code of Joseph Weizenbaum's Online Programming Language (OPL).
Based on a printout of source code found among Weizenbaum's papers archived by MIT Libraries, I have reconstructed the language so it can live again for the first time in nearly sixty years on a IBM 7094 emulator running CTSS.

@rysiek Gotta give the British more credit, here. It wasn't merely “over oil”, it was specifically over British Petroleum's completely unfair monopoly in the region… hard to think of a clearer example of The Brits Are At It Again

Also a reminder that while the Iranian regime is undeniably horrible, it is also the result of CIA and MI6 instigating (in 1953) a coup d'état against the government of Iran that had a democratic mandate, over oil:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tatHere's the Wikipedia page about the prime minister of that government, Mohammad Mosaddegh:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad_MosaddeghThe coup made shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi an authoritarian monarch with US backing. His oppressive regime ended with the 1979 Iranian Revolution.
