  • Your social experience will be entirely what you make of it, that’s part of the point of Mastodon. No algorithms, very little ‘suggested users’ outside of trying to help people build their initial feed.

    To get the timeline that you want, try looking for a few hashtags you’re interested in. Follow and interact with those people.

    Finally, each instance has their own moderators and own rules. There is no central or ‘parent’ set of moderation who manage anything. But usually, if someone gets banned from most instances, it’s for stuff like hate speech or harassment.







  • I’m old enough to remember when an iOS update would crash your entire phone if you answered an incoming call.

    Or the time the early, brand new aluminum 15” MBPs shipped with poorly seated displays that developed big white spots all over.

    And the original, original 12-inch MBP that ran so hot people cooked eggs on it.

    And the Mac OS X (yes that was its name) release that was heavily marketed as “no new features this year, just bug fixes.”

    I’m not excusing any of it. Apple’s made of humans. Humans are flawed. 🤷🏻‍♂️
