Either I was doing wrong or is just out here smashing it when it comes to

My feed was only useful after following a series of people.

has that and allowing me to see toots from people I'd otherwise probably never find.

You know who you are, new-friend. ๐Ÿ‘

Based on my previous observations (ca. 2018), the content on the federated timeline of Mastodon/Fediverse has changed. There are less NSFW and nonce stuff shared. I wonder if my instance blocks those instances or there had been a collective movement on Mastodon to โ€˜shadow banโ€™ them or unfederate โ€“ I also don't see accounts boosting posts from those instances.

You know when scrolling the and you come across one of the people you're following ...

It's a bit like being in a busy part of town and then bumping into someone you know. And you go "Oh, hello!"

I strongly recommend everybody, just once in a while, to scroll through the federated timeline.

You'll find interesting gems, since not everyone chooses to use hashtags.

I've found great , , , , etc

Maybe I should follow a load of bots/fake accounts and get them in touch with each other.

Like: Ha ha! Thanks @DozyO you should talk to @Reine28374 about that

There are three main timelines. You have your home timeline, which is just people and hashtags you follow. The second is the timeline which is your server/instance. In our case this is . The third is the . It will show people from other servers that are being followed by someone on your server. I personally don't hang out over there as I find it crowded. I saw your post while I was hanging around local.

Seeing a lot more activity in the and I mean, A LOT MORE. It this another wave of birdsite leavers or did something change? Did you change anthing, @admin?

Iโ€™m certainly gonna have to mute or block a couple of accounts who are posting way too frequent, at the very least. The discovery of random stuff has taken quite the hit, Iโ€™d argue. :(

Not sure why I should even look at the Federated timeline. It seems to me that this is just aiming the fire hose straight at my face.

Sometimes I get the urge to try and keep up with the federated timeline, I feel like it is just barely doable.

The idea of actually seeing pretty much everything going on feels so intriguing, like that stuff is absolutely impossible on most other platforms.

I don't think I'd be able to actually give each toot more than a quick glance tho tbh

OK, someone in the just posted a photo of a person in a very realistic-looking mask (it was most likely a cosplay costume) and for some weird reason it was marked as "sensitive content."๐Ÿคฃ There was literally NOTHING offensive or sensitive about it including the caption text. Is it too scary for small children and pets to gaze upon? Perhaps.๐Ÿ˜‚

Quiet permeates the cabin, despite the Pioneer deck warming the dashboard.

City lights push up on a sky so black it seems like space, the soft orange light of civilization working against infinite darkness.

As the junction approaches, I downshift, pushing the car into third as we move onto the ramp, letting the clutch out deliberately, matching the curve. Third gear is beautiful.

With no cars in sight, I accelerate, suddenly awake and dazzled by the road ahead.

I'd been looking on at the feed from just those I follow and my instance. But I was fooling around in the browser and I decided it was time to take a look at the Federated timeline.

Why didn't anyone warn me? The initial feed is so rapid-fire it made me dizzy. And there's so much there. I don't think I can view it without filters. All I can say is wow.

Well, with the growth of the , it's progressively becoming harder to actually use primarily the from the .

Leaves me wondering about the best way to reach posts that might be of interest.

Some sort of local prioritized sorting by a user-agent seems like an interesting option.

Anyone has an idea how many come out of the average Federated firehose per day and how much data that represents?

An Instance could also preset a suitable default number of max toots per minute allotted for its Federated timeline,

..to it make flood more usefully and inspiringly. :aw_yeah:

Since that ferociously flooding :ablobfoxbongoterrified: is practically useless with major language settings (like English), there could be a feature to filter only it particularly,

...and perhaps also similar for one's Local timeline.

Certain randomness could be a possible option too, for user to adjust e.g. how many toots per/time period would be allotted visible. ๐ŸŽฐ

LOCAL & FEDERATED TIMELINES

As a Finnish speaker I can always filter those feeds by my language to make them both flow approachable.

By using e.g. characters like "#, @, http" as filters, you can make even the Federated feed in English rather approachable and in its less frantic randomness.

BUT THEN...

Your hashtag searches won't work, albeit your #-followings do, so this is mostly recommended for more advanced users.
