hi and welcome to my seminar on how to use mastodon, my name's tom and i'll be your tootor this weekend

@thefishcrow@cybre.space @mawr @ktsukik@cybre.space tum tum rubbums

@roh@mastodon.art​ oh dang that patreon post art!!!

@Felthry it can do more than that but it's what Mastodon uses

Think of it as the thing that controls how to access content on a server using a browser

@Felthry it's the service that connects your client to the actual Mastodon code running and encrypts your traffic between it without the server needing to know what the specifics of the encryption are

I should really study nginx more so I know what I actually did but it was a lot easier than trying to drill through docs haha

Having worked on Mastodon just helped me solve an issue at work (securing a cloud service running on http behind https using nginx)

@Gargron​ don't think i wouldn't notice what you named your youtube alternative prototype >_>

ok so...
As a baby, you are abandoned in the icy mountains. Troll Mom finds you and protects you and teaches you the human ways as best she can. You return to the human kingdoms to follow your dream of becoming a tailor, but you visit Troll Mom every winter. She loves you.

TROLL MOM.
