I found the #Mastodon bus!

A French bus with the words “toot bus” on it in front of a beautiful old building. They just don’t make old buildings in the US like they do in Europe

Masto / Fedi Advice please!

On Desktop Mastodon's 'home' tab there is an overwhelming amount of general World information-too much somedays.
The 'Live This server' tab has only my local stuff-too little somedays.
The 'Live Other servers' tab is back to too much and seemingly a random selection.
Is there an easy way to have a feed which shows info from selected servers? eg my home one, my parent's local one and beige.party because that's reliably amusing?

HAPPY JOHN MASTODON DAY!!!!!

today's the day in 2022 when a news site misread "join mastodon" as "john mastodon" and birthed a whole new meme

archived article, before they corrected it: https://ghostarchive.org/archive/AZ9Q6

#JohnMastodon #JohnMastodonDay

To what extent is that true? Before this latest wave of suspensions, Twitter had already suspended the account posting the location of Musk’s jet. Then, the platform removed John Mastodon, the founder of a competing social media company named after himself, for posting a link to the jet tracker’s Mastodon account.

@Em0nM4stodon Not many people know this, but John Mastodon was the fifth person to ever go into space 🌌

That's why today he has no interest in spending his media wealth on space exploration but rather spends his space exploration wealth on a fair and ethical form of social media. 📱

Back in 1991 on #JohnMastodonDay our hero #JohnMastodon invented mobile messaging. He sent Nokia a text about it and asked them to take the credit because he's so humble.
