Learn about the complexities of previous import solutions and how I slurped up my Pixelfed archive into a new GoToSocial account.

Tonight, on John Oliver's Last Week Tonight, #Mastodon and #PixelFed got a call out for not falling in line with Trump and as an alternative to Meta products.

Hey, if you haven’t yet, be sure to try the Elk client for Mastodon. It’s one of the best around!
When I opened up Lemmy this morning I could not believe my eyes. The top story was a headline from Forbes stating:
« ‘Open Source And Ethical’ TikTok, WhatsApp And Instagram Alternatives Could Transform Social Media ».
The article mostly focused on #Pixelfed and did a fairly good job explaining how #ActivityPub works. But they spelled #Mastodon « Mastadon » over and over again with no links to it. Yikes.
B for the effort, but please editors do better!
This past week I have heard the same question thrown around over and over again: "what's the point of setting up a #Pixelfed account if the software is interoperable with the rest of the Fediverse? Why not just post photos on Mastodon or Sharkey or __?"
Well, #Pixelfed allows you to have a beautiful, curated feed of your photos.
See:

2️⃣ the way my #Mastodon feed appears on Pixelfed
as evidence.
Thank you @dansup for giving us an awesome Fedi photo platform 🙏

I ain't gonna lie when I first joined Mastodon i thought just another app i won't use. But I really like it. So different to all da other socials y'all get different views and y'all can actually talk to folks.
I love it . It's my go to social now.
Shout out the #fediverse

I love you all

With the latest update to #Mastodon's web app, we show you a little reminder when you're about to post a picture without adding alt text. Alt text is crucial for accessibility, but has other perks too, such as making it much easier to search for your post—or filter it. Of course, the reminder can be simply toggled off in preferences.
📣 Happy #GlobalSwitchDay to all the brave frontrunners out there!
For whom February 1st came a little too soon, don't worry! Just try again on March 1st and celebrate Zero Discrimination Day in the beautiful #fediverse. Alternatively, you can switch on April 1st, as only fools stay behind ;) or join your friends on May 1st and put your ideals to work.
Help spread the word.

⛔️🇺🇸Taiwan and South Korea fair game to tyrant neighbors as Rubio reiterates that international law, UN are meaningless, Ukraine must must make concessions to terrorist war criminals despite being the victim of an illegal invasion (more) https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-polytics/3954735-rubio-reiterates-that-both-russia-and-ukraine-must-make-concessions-in-negotiations.html #Ukraine #NukesForUkraine #SouthKorea #Mastodon #Japan #Press #Taiwan #Media #NukesOrNATO #UN #UnitedNations #USA #US #UK #EU #NATO #OSCE #CoE #News #PACE #UnitedStates #EuropeanUnion #UnitedKingdom #russiaUkraineWar #10yrInvasionofUkraine
This is why #Mastodon is so important:
"#NTSB forces reporters to get #planecrash updates on #X"

#Bluesky is owned by #crypto bros, it's not going to save you. The #plutocracy will call in their favors at the opportune time, and it's going to fall the same as #Twitter did. The manipulation you can't see is probably already underway
The #plutocrat strangulation of all #media is upon us
The #Fediverse is our #refuge, #sanctuary, and, grimly, perhaps our last hold out

Shlee fucked around andJohn Oliver's Last Week Tonight mentions #Mastodon and #PixelFed as alternatives that are "not as desperate to fall in line with trump".

Hello #Mastodon!
I just heard about Mastodon today and I signed up because I'm fed up with Facebook.
I do mods and create custom guitars from inexpensive ones. I produce original music & produce 2 YouTube channels.
Any ideas on how to do this Mastodon would be greatly appreciated
Ce petit bout d'interface est vraiment génial sur Phanpy. 
En gros, il apparaît sur tous les pouets où l'auteur ou l'autrice a répondu directement à son propre pouet, ou est la réponse à un de ses propres pouets, créant de facto un thread/fil.
Comme ça, on comprend tout de suite que soit il faut « ouvrir » le pouet pour voir la suite, soit qu'on peut comprendre le contexte avec ce qui a été publié avant.
J'aimerais vraiment voir apparaitre ça sur toutes les interfaces

@trunksapp My contribution to #GlobalSwitchDay? I've just finished the translation to Dutch of the magnificent #trunks for #Mastodon app 😇. So glad to reach the 100% mark this Sunday evening!
▶️ Become a #translator as well! Check out https://crowdin.com/project/trunkssocial. The #Crowdin interface is user-friendly and offers translation suggestions to speed up the process. I spread the translation over multiple weeks. You could also look for a partner in crime 😉.
Happy tooting!

We at Vivaldi are the only browser company with a Mastodon server. We have chosen to support the Fediverse in every way we can. We will continue to do so as we need options away from Big Tech.

Liebe Leute, versucht doch mindestens einmal am Tag etwas Eigenes zu schreiben als Beitrag auf eurem #Fediverse- / #Mastodon-Account, anstatt immer nur andere Beiträge zu boosten (was ja im Fediverse grundsätzlich eine gute Sache ist bzgl. Reichweite).
Aber ich möchte auch eure Meinung lesen, wenn ich euch denn folgen soll.
Viel Erfolg!
Habe heute einen wunderschönen, kostenlosen #IOS Client für #Mastodon gefunden. Den werde ich mal ausgiebig testen.
