@leo Patreon to support the software, THEN donate to support your chosen instance. We all want to keep the software fresh and great, plus server costs are not a negligible expense. It can cost hundreds each month to keep your server instance going each month.

@kyle I totally get this. This is a really important message to get out about just how different things are on Mastodon.I made a couple of stumbles in my first few days, following a hashtag that basically buried my timeline, and I'm still pondering what to do about my other stumble.I have followed Cory Doctorow for years now. His Linkblog account here will basically firehose your timeline when he posts, because he posts BIG. Like 13-14 consecutive posts in a row.I appreciate your words.

@kyle Well the Doctorow one specifically states right in the About that this is a 'firehose' account. And gives options, like the RSS feed.I have yet to encounter the random account that this happens on. I'm sure it is only a matter of time. One of the zuckland features I did find useful when I still hung around there was the 30-day pause button. Kinda miss that.

@kyle I started my design journey using Tinkercad. Web based, also programmable. Moved onto Fusion 360 after that. Keeping in mind that I am good at engineering type design. My skills at artistic design are still poor/non-existent.Tinkercad can be easily started by dragging and dropping shapes, resizing them, combining and modifying. All in the browser with keyboard and mouse.www.tinkercad.com
