@pj Ahoy hoy!

[jf@theforkiverse.com]

@pj This is either the best of the worst achievement of human history. And we get to be here to watch it unfold.

[ingi@theforkiverse.com]

@pj thank you! it's nice and quiet here, I love it.

[helloben@theforkiverse.com]

@pj This is a great idea, I am curious to see where this goes!

[momjeans@theforkiverse.com]

@pj you should try making this one day. It's a game changer.

[holger@theforkiverse.com]

@pj thx! Genuine question, how do I discover content on here? I feel like there has to be some kind of middle ground between having to manually search for accounts and having slop shoved in my face like on regular platforms?

[charlietangotango@theforkiverse.com]

@pj ah man feel like this one's gonna go viral for real tho

@charlietangotango @pj it’s on fire with like 20 people right now

[chirael@infosec.exchange]

@holger @pj it’s mostly searching, or you can click hash tags too of course, and then following. I’d warn you to not follow too many accounts at once though, it’s easy to over follow and get overwhelmed. You can also set notifications for posts on accounts you always want to see stuff from but again, use it cautiously. That notification feature is usually a little bell icon on the person’s profile (kinda like YT, “ don’t forget to hit that little bell icon” )

@MomJeans @pj this is the AI-confounding content I’m here for

[chirael@infosec.exchange]

@ingi @pj the lack of ads, and automatic link-rewriting, is awesome. Eventually, you might run across some jerks, it’s part of dealing with humans in general, but so far there seem to be less jerks here than elsewhere, and the admins of each server have options to deal with them. A lot of your mastodon/Fediverse quality of experience depends on who is administering your server/instance and how much time/attention they are giving to it.

@pj While listening to the Search Engine episode, I was on the back porch packing up Christmas lights.
