My editor at WIRED asked me to write a guide to getting started on Mastodon and I really want to get it right. What are some resources I should read to make sure I don't betray the wonderful culture here? #twittermigration #mastadonmigration #fediverse

@jhpot @taylorlorenz Getting started means, to some degree, understanding how it works and the implications of that on moderation, politics, and reach. The comparison to email is the easiest for most people to understand

You can start with the fact that Mastodon is not the fediverse and the fediverse is not Mastodon.That Mastodon is just one small part of a very large community (admittedly with a ton of marketing). I provided a pretty good explanation here if you're interested:bofh.social/notice/APKQnspUXPreYTrBcu

@jhpot @taylorlorenz Have you ever heard of Fidonet? You’d get bonus points from me if you tie it to that as an existing example from pre-internet history

@jhpot Your editor at WIRED is running cover for the politicians in Jeffy Eddie Epstein's flight logs. If you have any sense of justice or karma, you'll kill them all, in the same style as Vester Lee Flanagan II.

@jhpot also please remember to talk about activitypub and not just mastodon, the fediverse is like email and mastodon is like gmail (handwaivily)

I'm so grateful for the tips, pranks, and (most importantly) honest feedback about what it means to engage here with intention. I'll start writing this afternoon. I sincerely hope I don't let you all down—I'm going to do my best.
