Monitoring Protest Hashtags With VibesMasto

Can't go to the protests today but you still want to know what's going on? Check out this tool I made to monitor hashtags at the larger Mastodon instances and aggregate them into a browser tab that refreshes automatically. I set it up because I have a tiny instance and our news flow isn't great. You can use it too! You don't have to have a API key or even a Mastodon account.

There is no algorithm - your timeline is the #hashtags you follow, the people you follow, and the posts they boost. That means the quality of your feed is largely up to you. Follow interesting people and hashtags, and just as importantly unfollow/block early and often, and don't be shy about boosting in turn posts that are good.

Welcome and nice to have you on the good side of social media! 😁🥰
I‘m sure you’ll be very happy to see no advertising around here and only see interesting stuff in your timeline after you find your perfect #hashtags and profiles. Also use #newhere to have people find your profile and follow you! Good luck and have fun! ✨🍀🎉

Halfway through the month reminder that, because of how Mastodon works, it is important to include at least 1 relevant topic #hashtag (but not too many!) in your posts.

This greatly helps to highlight your posts to people who are following #hashtags for particular topics of interest to them.

Otherwise, posts with no hashtags just go past in the fast flowing stream, and are often only seen by people who were actually scrolling through when you send your post…

Rügen

The white chalk cliffs on the edge of Jasmund Nationalpark on Rügen, Germany's largest island, are a sight to behold. Especially during a beautiful sunrise like this. It was nothing short of mesmerising to be a witness of this moment. On my own, no less. If you haven't visited this gem in the Baltic sea yet, you really should.

Pluviophile (n) A lover of rain; someone who finds joy and peace of mind during rainy days.

I've been playing around with digital art and image editing for a while. Here are three promotional slides for one of my favorite hashtag events on social media. It's an hour of music curated each week by various participants, in the form of a YouTube playlist, for us to enjoy, riff on, and in some cases, discover something new.

*I don't normally do promos but my inner pluviophile loves these.

Promotional image for the hashtag game "I Like to Watch". It features a photo of an open road shot thru a car windshield. Trees appear on the left. A grass field on the right. The sky is overcast. Raindrops collect on the windshield. The text reads, "PLUVIOPHILE noun. a person who enjoys rain and rainy days, and who is fascinated by the sights, sounds, etc., of rain." "April Showers! Saturday April 12 - 10pm ET. #ILikeToWatch On Mastodon"
Promotional image for the hashtag game "I Like to Watch". It features a black silhouette of a woman with an open umbrella just left of center on a light blue background. The text reads, "April Showers! Saturday April 12 - 10pm ET. #ILikeToWatch On Mastodon"
Promotional image for the hashtag game "I Like to Watch". It features an image of an open hand reaching from an open window feeling the rain falling from the sky. The sky is overcast. The background blurred. The text reads, "Pluviophile (n) A lover of rain; someone who finds joy and peace of mind during rainy days." "April Showers!

Spar|fin|dig :: Jan :mastodon:

Ich hab eine Idee, aber keine Ahnung: Ich hätte gern einen Anstecker mit E-Ink-Display und Anzeigenwechsel per Knopfdruck. Also ein magnetischer oder ansteckbarer Button, der zwischen mindestens zwei Anzeigen wechseln kann.

Anwendungsbeispiele:
• "Ich nutze WERO" → Knopfdruck → QR-Code zum Bezahlen erscheint
• "Ich nutze Threema/Signal" → Knopfdruck → QR-Code zur Kontaktaufnahme erscheint
• Namensschilder mit wechselbaren Informationen
• Stimmungsanzeiger für nonverbale Kommunikation

Fragen an die #Fediverse-Community:
- Kennst Du ähnliche Projekte?
- Wer könnte so etwas umsetzen?
- Was sind realistische Kosten?
- Fallen Dir weitere Anwendungen ein?
- Welche #Hashtags sollte ich ergänzen oder ändern?

Meine Inspirationquelle:
linkedin.com/posts/timo-heck-9

Anstecker mit gelbem Hintergrund auf einem Hemd mit dem Text „Ich nutze WERO“.

Here's an explainer why #groups (boost bots) are preferable to #hashtags for organizing a #group of people on #mastodon (or the #fediverse in general):

(in English and German; based on experience from the hangman-game group at @galgodon)

BTW: I've mentioned "a.gup.pe" (@guppegroups) in the text. Is anyone aware of alternatives that should be added?
