Some things I learned about the Mastodon web UI:
The profile page of a user on another server won't show all of their follows/posts. Open it in a new tab (by middle-clicking their username in a toot) to view them all.
To boost or fav a toot on an external site, copy its URL into the search box on your local instance. The toot will be shown as a search result.

Gosh, if Mastodon does nothing but piss off both Nazis and Tech Bros, then it'll already have been worth it.
Mastodon is what happens when technology is in the hands of minorities, who have waited way too long for other people to fix this shit, and just said "fuck it we are the cool kids in this place now and y'all Nazis can fuck off".

Software poltics / criticising Stallman
Closed source is hypercapitalist corporate serfdom.
'Free' software is 'meritocracy' plus active friendliness to Nazis (because FREEDOM!!)
'Open' software is neoliberalism.
Software politics are boring but important. Too important to be left solely to software engineers.

Watching GNU Social users freak out that Mastodon instances block Nazis, is well, everything wrong with the 'Free' software movement.
I always thought RMS's insistence on ABSOLUTE FREEDOM was a quirky Mad Max fetish, but as libertarian thinking has become dominant in American politics, it's become more concerning.
If his utopia is lberalism eating itself, this should have been a clue to be a it more wary, but frankly all software politics suck.

Mastos - it's like twitter without nazis!
Gnu Socialites - oh no, we got nazis! They're an important part of our meritocracy!

It's a hell of a lot easier to have a technical discussion in 500 character chunks than 140. #500isthenew140
I'm really happy that we have @catboys_bot - it's amazing. <3

another srs post here, wont be long:
we are happy there are more folks here but FYI newbies, Mastodon's community was founded by gays, trans folx, POC, furries. Not only do we take no BS from Nazis, we won't have you ruining this place for us.
YOU ADJUST TO US. Mic drop 🎤

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what Mastodon is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
@moho1@social.troll.academy Also ich kann deinen Krams nicht sehen und dir auch nicht folgen. humhum.
@moho1@social.troll.academy Awoo!
PSA: If you are in the web view of a remote instance of some user or toot, you cannot directly reply/boost/fav.
But you can copypaste the URL into your local Mastodon server's "Search" field, then it allows you to interact!
Wasn't obvious to me, so maybe boost this if it helped you. :)
