Start by "following" hashtags. Type in hashtags for things you like, e.g. "#mastodon", and search for it. When the hashtag shows up in the search results click on the follow button to the right of the result item.
It is a good way to receive content from people you are not following. If you see people posting to that hash tag often, check out their profiles to see if they have a good post history, and then follow them if you want to see more. If you follow more people, and you also have good posts yourself, more people will follow you back.
Hi, glad you could join us!
Why did you choose Mastodon?
And are why are you posting this on Lemmy, or is your Mastodon account linked to Lemmy?
No.
Well, OK, yes we can talk about it, but you're buying the beer.
And yes, tiling windows in KDE it is pretty good. But I would prefer the option of having a toggle on window decorations (unless there is one, but I missed it). I prefer my tiling windows to be undecorated, and my floating windows to be decorated.
Is your Linux laptop dual-booting Windows? I am wondering if you are using the same SD-Card reader to read the card on both Windows and Linux?
This is relevant because if your Linux laptop is different it could be a problem with the SD-Card reader on your Linux machine.
Assuming your card reader works fine on Windows but not Linux, it is probably a driver issue. Linux is clearly reading the SD-Card boot sector since it is reporting information about the partitions. But if it is a hardware issue (not likely if it is working on Windows with the same card reader), it may start to read the card and then fail as soon as it starts to draw too much power or heat the card up or something.
But rejecting an appeal should not be an automated process.
My point is that a human can't tell the difference between a name generated by a bot and your username either. So you're right that the appeal ought not be automated, but regardless of whether it is or not, you are not likely to get an appeal. It will just go straight to ban, and a human in the loop would take a look at the name, see high entropy, and not wouldn't think twice about whether the automated ban was correct. Like I said, they are paranoid because they are the largest Mastodon instances, and they have had to deal with concerted bot attacks a few times already.
But I’d expect the highest suggested instances to at least answer the appeals when suspending users.
No, quite the contrary: the fact that these instances are the most popular also makes them the biggest targets for automated sock puppet and bot account creation. These guys are even more paranoid than many smaller instances about user names that appear to be randomly generated. Your own user name, as others in this thread suggested, would easily trigger their auto-ban rules. And a human moderator would take one look at the name and think the same thing.
And it is possible these auto-ban rules are builtin to the Mastodon server reference implementation and enabled by default, meaning it is likely that all other Mastodon instances you might try to sign up for would also have these same auto-ban rules. I don't know for sure, but I am not willing to play around and find out. So it looks to me like your only choice is to choose a different username. Sorry.
I am interested to know the answer to this as well. But there is something else I'd like to know...
In market economies where corporations are a construct of the law, insurance is often incentive for companies to cover the cost of externalities, like consumer safety, worker safety, and environmental protection. A corporation in a competitive market will do cost/benefit analysis, if they are polluting a river and insurance against litigation increases, they may find that it is less expensive to pollute the river than it is to cover the cost of litigation and take measures to reduce pollution. In practice, insurance in market economies does very little to actually keep people safe or to prevent pollution, but it does have that effect sometimes.
But I would guess that in the USSR, insurance was only a form of risk pooling and could not have incentivized industries to cover the cost of their externalities. Maybe they thought that the people in the soviets directly effected by pollution would have the right to vote for laws that would have forced corporations to not pollute. But based on what I know of the USSR, I would guess it probably never worked out that way in practice, it was probably not much more effective than market economies with insurance companies.
If you want CTL text layout support but want to use Vim, you can use a version of Emacs with Vim emulation extensions pre-installed. The easiest way to do this is to install Doom Emacs or Spacemacs which do all the tricky configuration things necessary to make it work and feel more consistently like Vim, and it just works out of the box.
Emacs has CTL support using libharfbuz as the text shaping engine.
But more importantly, Emacs has a "shell" app that lets you interact with a shell using the same textual interface that you would use when writing prose or code. To be sure, this is not a terminal emulator (although Emacs also has a terminal emulator app as well, called "term"), rather "shell" is a way of launching a POSIX process and interacting with it through the STDIN and STDOUT/STDERR channels. It is extremely useful, but does not always render the ANSI terminal escape codes cleanly, so colors and box drawing can sometimes end up garbled.
Still, I find this much more useful than an ordinary terminal emulator, especially when dealing with Chinese/Japanese script, or in your case with CTL.
I'll just say two things: Doom Emacs or Spacemacs, and I'll just shut up now.
All it misses is a good text editor, but you can run Vim in it.
So, then it isn't missing a good text editor. Install Doom Emacs or Spacemacs instead of the usual Emacs, and you have all you need.
"in the spirit of continuous improvement, I recently embarked on a quest for re-evaluation and potential enhancement."
Oh boy, wait until you discover that Emacs can do terminal emulation, terminal multiplexing, text editing, file management, and app launching, all configurable and scriptable with a single, powerful programming language... and allows you to record keyboard macros that run across all of the above features. You'll go down a rabbit hole from which you will never emerge.
I should look into it, but I don't know whether or not X11 provides for any kind of video compression when updating regions of the screen. I only ever use this over a an 802.11g LAN so even if there is no video compression I don't notice any lag. I haven't tried using it over the Internet, but I am guessing it would probably be a bit slow.

What features do you expect from a tag based file manager?
I ask because Emacs Dired might qualify. It allows you to apply arbitrary "marks" to files, each mark is a single character. Some characters have special meaning, e.g. "D" means ready for deletion, and "*" is the default mark (not for deletion). You can then preform batch operations on marks, for example using marked files as arguments to a shell command.
However, without additional extensions, marks are not persisted between sessions, there is no virtual filesystem, and no search function for listing all files across multiple separate directories that match particular tags.
One such extension is filetags.el which is an Emacs UI inspired by the filetags file manager (which someone else already mentioned).
Because it isn't WebKit.
This is exactly the reason I use Firefox too.
Xfce has been my go-to for over a decade. It is one of those pieces of software that is so stable and reliable that I genuinely forget it exists most of the time, I take it for granted. That is a property of a quality piece of software.
I am always creating content on one half of my screen and browsing through documentation or specifications or chat logs on the other half. So it makes sense, and saves me lots of time, if I setup my computer to automatically place certain windows such that they fill the whole left of the screen and other windows so they fill the whole right of the screen. And this is precisely what tiling window managers are designed to do -- especially ones that let you define your own rules about what windows go where.
Wow, even with most of Canada on fire, these oil and coal industry fucks are doubling-down with their dark-money astro-turf groups.
I thuoght at first you somehow got the Terminus font to work in you terminal emulator and lemonbar or whatever panel thing you are using.
I took a closer look at your dotfiles and found it was this "spleen" font, which looks really nice! I might try that one out for myself!
(Reads your Neocities page)
Cool! Well, I am just going to have to follow you on Mastodon then! I'll might just ask you about those things.
