It is deeply funny to me that Mastodon is a place where AI bros cry because they can't get any traction, but a single picture of moss can give anyone, no matter their other content or follower count, positive feedback for the rest of time.

How about a digital block of moss. It is moss, yet it is artificial! What will happen? What would John Mastodon do?@leadore @paparatti he would surely turn it into carpet

@stacey_campbell @paparatti
This is why I absolutely love Mastodon. -
@paparatti - I was talking with an #instagram friend about some irritating reply on Mastodon from the other day and they said "Oh, you need to give the algorithm feedback if you don't want to see that type of thing" and I just said ... there is no algorithm.. and you could see the mixed look of awe and horror at the thought. #mastodon
@dplattsf @paparatti Oh, there is, dear.

Try it. Post a picture of moss. See what happens.
Can’t get engagement on your posts bro? Idk I don’t have that problem, must be a you thing
(Posts desperate pleas for help about my garden)

@dplattsf @paparatti Oh, there is, dear.

@paparatti Reminds me of this person "findemoos" (German for "find moss"), who just posted shorts about discovering interesting stuff in nature and peaked the interest of a few thousand people (including mine): https://www.youtube.com/@findemoos/shorts

Oh... Being a plushie is also surprisingly effective, though for some reason German seems to be a common language for many of us... English works, too, of course!

@paparatti Therefore, I love it to be here. Mastodon gave me a maximum of listeners, when I talked about #moss: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moss-the-emerald-treasure/id1630784381?i=1000707856049
You can talk about the most interesting topics but moss is grounding people, it's miniature worlds are easy and cheap to visit ... I was surprised how much people are interested ... not only on Mastodon.
