Over 100 new users so far cool.Just letting you all now that this pony instance/server is only one of many instances/servers all across Mastodon, and even beyond other social media services (i.e misskey, GNU.Social, peer.tube and even Tumblr and flickr is working on joining the Fediverse).Like email, you don't need to be under the same email service provider to get in touch within one another.Mastodon is the same. You don't have to be in the same server or even be on Mastodon to connect with each other (as long as it runs ActivityPub, which makes this tech all possible.useremail@emailprovider.commastoUser@thisInstanceYou can also search for a username to send messages to within a post with type @.username (- the .)Also, don't forget to change global/public to followers only or mentioned users only by tapping/clicking on the Global Icon within the posts tool bar (depending on which Mastodon app you're using).Hope this helps#everypony #welcome #everyoneswelcome #guide

What's up everycreature :pinkiesmile: It's always so awesome to find new ponies jumping into Equestria(.social) especially with so many trotting in all at once. I could barely keep up verifying you all with my hooves and wings :raritycrying: and the same can be said with the all mods and admin on this team. :rainbowdetermined: That is to say, there are still a hoof-full of ponies/creatures who have yet to respond to their confirmation email to be allowed in (this is all part of combating unwanted bot accounts and among other things).We will be resending emails back to all of the remaining users would love to be apart of EQS and all it brings, but if anyone knows anyone who hasn't received anything or is having trouble getting in, please get in touch with us or use the contact email found in our about's page (https://equestria.social/about , if I recall correctly)Have a great day everypony :twilightsmile:

@vinesnfluff Gotta cover your itches with packet of frozen peas, ice, corn etc. Anything from the freezer will help.

Hey guys, Shredd Tone here. Just reposting this for all of you migrating from Twitter.

@LittleshyFiM It's more to do with blocking meta corp from collecting data on users and other instances and selling them to data brokers and the likes for profit with disregard to privacy and possibly influencing ActivityPub tech and other instances in some ways.Corporations tried and are stilling doing the same with linux in some ways, anyway they can i.e patent trolling.It sucks that we'd have to block users on those instances (which is not our intention), but we're doing this specifically to protect users and our instance from meta. That's not even getting into the reputation FB has for letting misinformation and extreme ideologies go rampant.

@LittleshyFiM Well, we've always been open but we do have to block instances that are admin and modded by individuals to protect our user data bases. Google apps once blocked mastodon due to instances providing harmful content.I.e we had to block instances that had been bully users for being bronies, which the admins didn't even care about. Plus other servers that provided child pornography, terrorism etc.It's not a fun job, but something has to be done. If an instance is isn't taking it seriously or providing something that potentially cause harm to our users. Mastodon had been intended to stop corps profiting off data from their users. If people aren't comfortable with making nfts out of say a users artwork or song for profit, what difference would it make if they dox users for profit?But having that said, whether you choose to go or stay, you'll always be welcome here to interact with us and I wish you all the best.

If Meta has to block their users using VPN's on their Threads platform simply because it's the only way they can avoid violating EU Privacy Policies (As Threads breaks so many of them, if not all of them for EU citizens).......I think that just says it all about how messed up their new social platform really is.#threads #privacy #eu #social #meta #vpn #censorship

1/ I think it's important to tell everyone here about this. I don't think anyone remembers me saying 'that I had important news to share soon' or something like that.I think now would be the best time to inform you all now. Before the Pandemic hit, I used to be a English Teacher in China. Obviously, there were a lot of travel restrictions and therefore lead to my inevitable lost position and visa and permits expiration.It has taken me a very long time to get an opportunity to apply for the working visa (I did successfully get one before, but stopped mid journey to China due to receiving an email that covid cases were rising and they had another lockdown.I have booked a an appointment with the embassy and if everything goes well (which I really do hope) I shall be leaving soon afterwards

2/ I don't know how much this will affect my time here on EQS, as well as myself interacting on Twitch Streams (loved that) but I will still do my best to stay in touch and do my thing, but I just want to let everyone know that I love you all and it's been a long time since I could find a place online to truly call home.If there's anything I do regret from being in isolation and away for so long is that I didn't finish all of the things that I have set out to do. That's all on me though, and I wish to do better. Play the guitar better and write some songs, draw better and be able to call myself an artist are two of the biggest objectives which I have failed.That said, I have been working much harder as of late 3D modeling and finishing projects faster than I expected that I could. They should've been finished ages ago, but at least I'm gaining momentum again. I just have to keep at it.

3/ I think I started rambling a bit.It's been a privilege to finally bring something back into the community, and I am really happy I've been able to help you guys on this server and, even though I am still shy and sometimes worrisome of crowds, I will still try my best to manage my new job in Asia and mod for Equestria.Social. All while to encourage myself to exercise my art skills and perhaps share them here. I hope you guys can be there with me for support, encouragement and honest feedback.I might be gone of this platform for a while (or maybe not), so until then, I promise to stay active and stay in touch.EQS forever:- Shredd Tone

@stux I'm on a linux phone, but between Apple and Android (as far as OS's are concerned), I'd personally would go for a used Android phone and replace the stock rom with a custom one. I can survive without the latest gadgets and I tend to keep my devices going (with the support I need) until it breaks.
