       Hello and welcome all new users! :nkoWave: โค๏ธ Most of you joined a #Mastodon instance(server) and by that you automatically joined the #Fediverse :fediverse: (Federated Universe) this is the network of all instances so we can communicate from different places! If you want to know more about the server you are on be sure to checkout the 'about' page. This also includes the rules specific to your instance!For example, ours can be found here: https://mstdn.social/about

       @stux that's understandable. and I guess people on fedi seem to prefer matrix over xmpp, so it makes sense to mention the former rather than latter :)

       One of the things you will (NOT) find in #Mastodon are advertisements or tracking software! :fediverse: Most servers are run by a small group of people or even single admins who pay the server costs, media storage, and mail delivery from their own money and with the support of the users on the #Fediverse We will NEVER sell data, show ads or have 'premium' features. Everyone is the same 'level'โค๏ธPlease checkout your server admins profile to see how you can help :cat_hug_triangle:

       The difference between instances is often not the software or how it looks but the rules that are set, the people who run it and something things like; language or 'theme'!For example, mstdn.social is a 'general' instance where all languages are allowed but there are many more instances with other sets of 'rules'!You can find the one best fitting for you here: https://joinmastodon.org/servers

       Another (big) difference with #Twitter (and many other mainstream social platforms) is that on the #Fediverse it's not a numbers game.In short: constantly showing the number of boosts, favourites, replies, etc is having an effect on the mind. We do not care about numbers but rather the content of a post / user :blobcathearts: Quality over quanity!Below you find an example of the web interface, on the timeline it does NOT show the counts but only on the post itself.

       Most of us do not like so-called 'spam accounts'.Many instances within the #Fediverse have rules about automated bot accounts, for example; on mstdn.social we only allow news / media bots that post 'unlisted' meaning not on the 'Public' timelines that bother every user. Unlike #Twitter, we keep an close eye on spam accounts and remove them so we keep the community for humans! If you do wanna post something but not to the world please checkout the screenshot below for the options we offer!

       Next to the 'default' single column layout in #Mastodon there is also an 'advanced web interface' with multi column you can build yourself!Go to settings and check the "Enable advanced web interface" On mstdn.social you can find the setting here: https://mstdn.social/settings/preferences/appearance

       @stux Hi, thanks for your welcome note. So I was wondering why your Code of Conduct doesn't bar "incitement to imminent lawless action" or "incitement to violence." I realize it bans extreme graphic violence, which sounds like it only involves images (as I interpret par. 1 (4).I realize your servers are in NL, so US jurisprudence need not concern you.https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/brandenburg_testBut as a concept, I think Brandenburg is a good start for thinking abt how you write code that censures Jan. 6
