Gregory's ServerI’m boldly going where I haven’t gone before, which is right here at this site. Apparently this is a “toot.” I would appreciate a follow!
 @georgetakei so wonderful to see you here! Big fan!! You were one of the reasons I was hesitant to leave the bird site!  @georgetakei welcome 🖖 I am happy to see that you are here. I hope you can convince your friends with high follower accounts to come over here. It will help the platform grow 🙏 @georgetakei good morning from Jakarta. Welcome! Nice of you to join us. Let’s re-set & leave the bird site behind. You will hopefully find that your timeline is filled with more varied content, not just politics for example. There’s no algorithm to dictate/ push content on you. Generally friendlier folk here & helpful too. Usually the admins/owner of your specific server, who do a marvellous job (Unpaid!) to keep this up and running and dealing with huge influx from bird app.🙂 @georgetakei welcome George! You should get a verification link set up on your website and link it on your profile - that way people know it's you. @georgetakei Glad you made the jump. I deactivated my Twitter on the 11th and don't regret it seeing all the problems people are having with 2fa etc. @georgetakei I literally just said, "George Takei is here? Woohoo!" Welcome to the fediverse :)
 @georgetakei Welcome to the Fediverse 🤩 @werawelt @georgetakei @startrek Since you are mentioning it: Are there a "Babylon 5" and "Star Wars" groups too?  @georgetakei Welcome to the platform!! Mastodon is full of really cool people, and you definitely make it cooler. 🙂  @georgetakei  @georgetakei The #toot isn't a thing anymore. I'm also new to mastodon and found this article explaining why it was even a thing and why some people will miss it. https://gizmodo.com/mastodon-toot-retired-twitter-tweet-equivalent-1849786221 @georgetakei @georgetakei welcome George! You’ve always been a hero of mine, I look forward to reading your toots here! @georgetakei Thanks for joining and everyone cross your fingers this thread alone doesn't break the whole thing. @georgetakei I hope this is really you! Sign me up! I’m following you - Welcome to Mastodon!   @georgetakei Yay, one of my last remaining must follows is here! I shall be free of the Bird Site soon!  @georgetakei @georgetakei Go on then, you follow me, I’ll follow you and together we stick two fingers up at Trump and Twitter!😃👍 @georgetakei To boldly go where disgruntled Twitter users are migrating. Happy to see you here, it gives me confidence in this network. I'd like to follow @georgetakei but for the life of me I can 't figure out how to do that. I'm rooting for Mastodon to succeed but some of these basic activities need to be more intuitive. (or perhaps you can't "follow". If that's the case then people re-homed from Twitter Ah. I just figured it out. I had to click on George's name and go down a level. Bizarre that the three dot menu didn't include it as an option. This qualifies as a top-level action. (I know, there's a lot still being worked on and UX is hard and it's easy to criticize. I'm just expressing my first reaction because some people will just disappear if confused). @georgetakei OMG YAY!!!!!!!! Welcome to Mastodon! You just made my night! :blobcatgay: @ProfessorLoki @georgetakei He made mine too - landed on my instance. I'm smashing away at my keyboard adding more capacity while screaming like a little kid in excitement You need to be following some of us to George. That supposedly is the whole gist of Mastodon. We're all supposed to be kind of equal out here ❤💜🖖 @georgetakei been a fan since the old Hollywood monthly comic cons in the 70s & meeting you in person. @Bro666 @georgetakei wayne : a sulu says, "toot!" |
@georgetakei NOW Mastodon is legit! Welcome, George!
