@dansup I like what you are doing though it doesn't benefit me as a WordPress user that I can tell.

Another use case would be having a link to an onboarding tool on profile pages, which could be tailorable for instances.

It could see someone not logged in, and given them the option of creating an account on the instance, or another instance.

This might even help with distributing new users to other instances.

It's a thought.

A question about #mastodon

What's with accounts that have no pic, posts or followers, and only follow like 8 other people?

I don't mean accounts that say ‘I am a kind woman looking for a husband but first I need your bank details’ - I understand what that is

Nor those that follow hundreds of people - I get that too. It's those who follow 8 people. What do they want?

Here’s my #cat Norbert, attacking me because I can’t answer his questions about the internet

I often see the horizontal bar and the circles, so that i need to wait for #Pachli.

Experienced this both on #Mastodon and #Mammuthus instances. And yes, regarding Mammuthus it is always possible, that this behaviour is caused by my software... 😉
(That's why i didn't reported this yet officially...)

Let me introduce the new mascot to oslo.town, skillfully crafted by Oslo-based illustrator @Linda_h 🧡

Huch, wir haben ganz verpennt 😴, dass die #Hochschule #Zittau/ #Görlitz @hszg seit Januar auch hier aktiv ist.
In einem Ihrer ersten Beiträge haben Sie gezeigt, wie einladend ihre #Bibliothek vor kurzem gestaltet wurde.
Sieht das gemütlich aus.
📚 Alle Büchernarren im #Fediverse träumen nun davon, in diesen Fauteuils mit einem guten Buch zu versinken.

Herzlich willkommen auf #Mastodon und viel Erfolg hier!

@mellifluousbox I’m reminded of my early days at the Open Knowledge Foundation @okfn , first as a volunteer and later as an ambassador in Brazil.

After some time, I suggested forming a local group. Due to my involvement, I later worked as a consultant. A member of the core organization coordinated local leadership, supported ambassadors, and held open meetings periodically. That structure was important.

Out of that structure, I founded Open Knowledge Brasil @okbr , which I ran for years before moving to Europe. Being close to people with strong communication and advocacy skills was invaluable, that's where I learned the most.

Today, I see similar energy in the Fediverse, with accounts such as @FediTips and @mastodonmigration. There are also communication professionals, for example, @hpod16 runs a highly strategic account for the @EUCommission. Or people like @bjoernsta , leading the awesome campaign #SaveSocial .

Resources may be limited, but there is clearly a passionate and capable community.
It might be worthwhile to find ways to involve and coordinate this existing expertise more intentionally.

On 7 February 2010 at 19:51 SAST, I wrote the following on my Facebook profile: "Playing around with the Twitter API. Testing to see if I can update my Twitter status programmatically from my C# application."

Those were the days. When Twitter's API was free and open and anyone could use it without restrictions or applying for permission or anything. And there were a plethora of Twitter clients for all sorts of platforms, as well as little apps to do specific things.

And then Elon Musk happened... Well, to be fair, they started locking it down long before Elon Musk. But Elon Musk hammered the final nail.

But a free, open, unrestricted API, along with the GARGANTUAN number of clients out there, is one of the things that drew me to Mastodon. And I've written a few Mastodon bots myself. It's the good old days. :-)
