TIP OF THE DAY

Use and Follow #hashtags !!!

Mastodon has #NoAds, #500Chars, #5Pins, and #PostEdits, but the best thing is #NoAlgorithm. On the #BirdSite you are force-fed by an #algorithm. A mishmash of your history, likes, follows and whatever Twitter wants to cram into you. With #NoAlgorithm, you are in control. Your feeds are just who and what you follow, and you can follow #hashtags .

Include #hashtags liberally so others can follow your ideas.

#twittermigration

I will never forget that when I was thinking about leaving #academia and feeling like an "ungrateful failure" for leaving the tenure-track, my chair told me "you didn't fail academia, academia failed you and many other women of color." I think about that a lot as I see my former WOC colleagues be laden down with so much service and emotional labor that it takes away from their ability to do the research they love. Sending those in this position lots of love today #altac @academicchatter

WIRED's guide to getting started on #Mastodon, by @jhpot, is now live.

"Just remember: this isn’t a startup that’s obsessively pursuing growth, and you’re not a consumer. This is a series of communities, and you’re someone thinking of joining one. You can’t approach it, or think about it, the way you would a commercial venture, as hard as that can be to comprehend this late into capitalism. Just remember: Community is more fulfilling than commerce. Mastodon and related services are optimized for connection, not engagement, and that comes through in the community as it exists right now."

Transparency ≠ Awareness

👐 #Transparency: The degree of disclosure of the ways in which firms collect, process, or share (exchange) personal data with the purpose of generating personalized communication.

💁‍♀️ #Awareness: The degree to which individuals are cognizant of how and when their personal data are collected, processed, or shared (exchanged) with the purpose of generating personalized communication.

We defined the two based on a lit review (p. 123): https://www.cogitatiopress.com/mediaandcommunication/article/view/4054 #commodon

So here's what I've learned.
Mastodon isn't Twitter.
And that's by design.
You've grown used to things designed to give you that anger rush.
Mastodon is very deliberately built to avoid that.
The temptation is to replicate your Twitter experience.
Picking arguments, amplifying trolls.
Please don't.
This isn't your house, people here put time into building it.
Content warnings, ALT tags.
Don't turn it into a replica of the mess you just left.
If you miss the fights, the birdsite is still there.
