 @unchartedworlds @pvonhellermannn @inquiline Ahh.. bugger. I give advice, but don't know what I'm talking about.🙂🙃Thanks for the clarification Jennifer. I'm on a busy server, so I guess that's why it seems to work as I thought. As I understand it, if you follow someone on a specific server, then that will mean that posts on it are included in your feed. Is that correct? https://a.gup.pe seems to be the main Groups place at the moment. Uhhh.. Pauline.. there's no ClimateDiary group! 9 comments
 @gsymon @unchartedworlds @inquiline Btw I wasn’t looking for posts in other languages (i get quite a few), i just meant having connection to people from the Global South. That was for me the mostvaluable part of Twitter, that direct learning. These voices and connections are almost totally absent here. Here I struggle that so many people seem to be super comfortable in their little European bubble, never thinking about colonialism and the origins of all their comfort and privilege. @pvonhellermannn @unchartedworlds @inquiline Fediverse is indeed complex, but the advantages for those of us who abhor autocratic control, are worth the cost.. well for me they are. Wondering about accessing non-federated servers.. If you created a User on a server in a global south region, adding hashtags / following accounts, then followed this new account, from your current account, would it be an effective way of expanding connections? The new account would effectively just be a 'link'. @pvonhellermannn @unchartedworlds @inquiline Of course, if you just explore some of these servers and follow someone on them, then that should 'link' you to the server as well. @pvonhellermannn @unchartedworlds @inquiline You're probably sitting watching the thirsty, but wary giraffe 😊(truly beautiful and illustrates the incredible privilege of our modern world, to be able to see such things) I came across the giraffe whilst looking at fedi-servers in Africa. It was boosted by this account: @gsymon @unchartedworlds @inquiline @AfricaUnion 😄 I can’t see any giraffes, but have followed @AfricaUnion! @pvonhellermannn @unchartedworlds @inquiline @AfricaUnion Ahh... I 'boosted' it ... and it was AfricaUnion that had already boosted it. @pvonhellermannn @unchartedworlds @inquiline @AfricaUnion Get a cup of tea! It's a ~12min watch! 😊 |

@gsymon @unchartedworlds @inquiline good point .. i guess i need to work out how to set that up. Everything on mastodon is so much work!
I really noticed lack of reach and #LossyDistribution when I searched #Eurocentrism a few weeks ago. I only saw about 5 posts, half my own. It really can’t be the case that noone ever uses it. Depressing enough that noone in my network ever talks about it, as Mastodon so incredibly eurocentric.
