Have you tried using elk.zone? It mimics Twitter’s interface and has some great additional features (like zen mode)

thank you! I’m so pleased to hear that ☺️

FYI I wrote a blog post doing a show and tell of Sharkey (a fork of Misskey) in December: https://news.elenarossini.com/sharkey-a-fediverse-project-that-is-beautiful-inside-out/ 🤗

For people interested in seeing a *key software in action, I’ve written a blog post about Sharkey in December: https://news.elenarossini.com/sharkey-a-fediverse-project-that-is-beautiful-inside-out/

This is wonderful, thank you so much!

I’ve been holding off from switching to Android (and getting a GrapheneOS x Pixel phone) because I have 5 years’ worth of messages on Signal on my iPhone… I’ll look into this method for sure

Oooh interesting! Could you please elaborate / share any resources about this?

I’m now hosting my own Pixelfed instance (as of Tuesday). I really like being in charge of my own server…

The drawback I’m seeing is that Explore and search sometimes yield no results.

Like searching for “Nikon” just now results in “no content found” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Even if your Mastodon instance is federated with Threads, you can still block the whole domain from your account. Explanation / walkthrough here: https://mastodon.social/@_elena/113797840274825233

My almost 4-year-old started watching cartoons a few months ago. She has about 20 min of screen time a day max, all slow, wholesome stuff. She LOVES SpiderMan because I got her DUPLO and LEGO characters and we play with them all the time. I got her a Spidey book but she didn’t like it at all - it’s very shallow and there’s no moral to the story. I showed her the title sequence from SpiderMan in the 1970s I believe and she really liked it

one more interoperability test, this time from Lemmy.world to a self-hosted new Friendica instance. Hello @jerry@my-place.social - let me know if you get this! 👋

Testing out comment federation, please don’t mind me 🙈

Pinging @_elena@mastodon.social @elena@friendica.opensocial.space and @elenarossini@pixelfed.social (because, why not) 🙈

Thank you for the explanation! Follow-up question: if you follow a Lemmy community in Mastodon, do you feel like your feed is filled with messages from that community? Like, does it get noisy fast? (But I’m thinking if they show up as boosts I could simply filter out boosts in my Ivory app)…
