#Lurking, or passive observation, is a valuable form of #SocialMedia participation.
The current changes at #Twitter / X and elsewhere reinforce #privilege, as not everyone can afford a subscription. Moreover, restrictions on reading and the unavailability of #free tools have further limited lurking.
The future of #academic social media relies on platforms that prioritize and facilitate lurking as a central part of the #onlineCommunity.

From what I have gathered in #lurking, it is also proper etiquette to introduce your #catsofmastadon very shortly after yourself. So I shall do exactly that in this thread.
I've been #lurking for a few days trying to figure this whole #Mastodon thing, because before this week it was a metal band in my world. Since im on a book server lets start with #whatimreading #TimeAfterTime , #JackTheRipper, #HGWells and his #TimeMachine... what could possibly wrong? ABC canceled the TV series so I guess I have to read the book for my ending. :0)

I wonβt be posting much, if at all, on this site. Iβm here to read and learn. I left #TheBirdSite last year, fed up with seeing all the vitriol being flung far and wide. I came here out of curiosity, stayed because Iβm now able to calmly read about current events from many viewpoints. Also for cat and dog pics, parody and humor. #lurking #likes #boosting

More and more I use #Mastodon, the more I get it. I've never been trying to get popular on #socialmedia, just responding to people in comments and mostly never posting and just #lurking. Mastodon is kind of a distilled version of that, where I can just talk to people without trying to get #popular. The people I talk to tend to be the same way.
There's not a lot of #clout to chase on here for the attention seekers. That's what makes it genuine.

Just realized I've been #lurking and not posting anything. I'm an observer. Sitting back and watching is what I do best.

set up a listener, a webserver, a collaborator instance, whatever, grep access logs or what have you for user agent strings matching /http\.rb.+Mastodon\/[\d.]+/
update your profile with a url pointing to your listener and wait.
