So following on from that research into why people aren't signing up to the fedi, yesterday I tried a little experiment to remove some of the biggest barriers and help people make the jump.
People complain the process of signing up to mastodon is complicated, and it's hard to find the Good Posts.
So I shared with people who wanted to join two things:
1. An invite link to the server I'm on, to stop them having to choose.
2. My follow list in csv format, to populate the tl with good posts.
Starting in just 25 minutes~!!

pretty sure i’m going to move to the qoto.org instance. the other instances i tested out (beige.party, indieweb.social, tilde.zone, and of course mastodon.social) all to some degree are “protecting me” from seeing some of the totally normal content of folks i'm already interacting with on other instances. qoto.org seems to show me everything i try to see, so far.
iBook Clamshell Key Lime running @ActionRetro shenanigans. It took some time to get it running, but here it is! #retrocomputing #minecraft #apple
i fucking hate giving adobe money but i'm still not ready to use cracked lightroom because it has so much valuable shit stored in it. at least i downgraded from the $600/year full creative cloud to the $250/year lightroom-and-photoshop-only one. fuck adobe.
please someone replace lightroom with something usable (it isn't darktable, shhh)

there are people that smoke on their balcony on one of the apartments adjacent to mine in berlin and when i have my bedroom windows open it smells like someone is smoking a cigarette in my bedroom.
i'm very, very, very slow to anger, but this immediately makes me want to murder motherfuckers where they stand.
