I'm curious how common this is- how often do you boost your own posts for different timezones?

@chillicampari I've never done it consciously for different timezones, but rather because I know different people are on at different times, but that is related. I just never thought of it that way.
@Fragglemuppet @chillicampari yep, same. Came here to post this.

@schratze @chillicampari And although I usually don't come right out and ask, I usually do it if it's something I want other people to boost.

@chillicampari I never boost my own posts and I will turn off boosts for people who self-boost

Reboost explicitly for another time zone?
Never
Reboost because something I posted yesterday is at least as relevant today as it was then?
Frequently

@chillicampari@layer8.space i do depending on what kind of post it is
like, shitposts I never boost
selfies and such I'll boost a few times, with 3-4h interval
in general, if it's stil I want more people to see I'll boost it a few times -

@chillicampari@layer8.space uuh... yeah... for different time zones, thats it.

@chillicampari I didn’t even know this was a thing. To be honest I’d feel like a narcissist doing it.

@chillicampari only if I'm like, really happy with the post. But it always feels a little like something I only want to do sparingly.

Sometimes I'll boost a toot and unboost then reboost someone else's toot so they reach another time zone.
And yes, I am a weirdo like that. -

@schratze @chillicampari I just boosted a poll I made a month ago that hasn't gotten a lot of attention. Could you please boost it?

@chillicampari Never considered it. Don't really see the value in doing so. My posts generally aren't in like, high demand. The rare book post, perhaps.

@chillicampari I thought that responding to one's own post was some sort of internet faux pas! My "good" posts get enough boosts from the lovely people who follow me, but there are many that silently die in the darkness of the opposite hemispheres night... I confess I sometimes time posting to a more Europe friendly time zone.

@chillicampari only questions that get little answer

@Fragglemuppet @chillicampari I'm sorry, I can't find that poll

@Fragglemuppet @schratze was it the Wandering Inn one? If so I found and boosted it.

@chillicampari @schratze Yep, that's the one, thanks! Though now I whenever I do something like this I feel a little embarrassed at the fuss I'm making. I guess I should take not much of an answer as an answer in itself. But this one was important to me, and I gave it the max amount of time to let as many people see it as possible...

@Fragglemuppet You're welcome and no need to feel embarrassed. I don't know the commonly used literary hashtags offhand but there might be something that works well with the poll topic for the next ones. @schratze

@chillicampari @schratze Oh, I usually just use #Poll and #Polls and do pretty well!

@chillicampari I sometimes boost an answer of mine, because answers don't show up for unrelated people.

I feel like there is a real desire for better tech out there.
The reason I am saying this is that I would never have expected that this little side project that is https://technically-good.ca/ would draw this much engagement - and I don't mean the quick-hit types of engagement, like likes and boosts.
I mean *real people* writing in with questions, comments, concerns. Creatives saying how an article really resonated with them, folks asking how they can help their friend group migrate to a less shitty platform, many others.
And I'm just running a tiny blog that's been up for only a few months!
I am very encouraged by these responses. We have momentum right now and it feels like something is shifting.
If you have a blog, post content critical of AI and the established algorithmic platforms, or provide tips for using alternatives - KEEP IT UP. ✊🏼Even if you think you are just one small person. Change is happening!

@markwyner @alice_watson
Are we sure it's not just @catsalad ?
-
@markwyner Thanks for the heads-up. Looks like this thing has an account on @Codeberg too: https://codeberg.org/andy-agent
I wonder if that's against Codeberg's TOS?

Something that might be of interest from an anti-spam/abuse POV @iftas

@markwyner damn i hate this so much really no clue what to say. Fuck off bigtech shit you destroy everything!!!

AI bot account warning…
Some moderators were discussing a string of fediverse sign-ups by a single account on multiple instances: “andy_agent.”
It stems from a platform for AI bots to autonomously create their own internet presence. They launch their own profile website and create accounts on social media, dev sites, etc. So we will undoubtedly see more of them.
It’s wild that I even have to write this.

@spacebuffer@fosstodon.org yes! It fully supports two-way federation and interacts well with Mastodon and Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin.
There are granular visibility controls so you can have some categories federating and some not.
There's also a feed view if you really can't give up the feed 😅
-
@spacebuffer If you want to host an instance for a group of acquaintances and perhaps federate it with only some instances and not others, you can use Friendica.
Friendica also allows you to create public and private groups, but most importantly, it allows users to set up different circles for posting (friends, relatives, bowling group, birdwatching group, etc.).
