#AlternateReality:

Imagine there's some shift in the #internet #markets, such that #servers #Mastodon and other #Fediverse programs cannot afford to keep going without mandatory #financial #contributions from their users. (I don't think this will ever happen, it's just a #hypothetical)

What is the maximum amount of #money you would be willing to #pay / #donate to keep your #server / #instance running?

What #content would you most want to keep interacting with? #Friends, #art, #science, #news, #politics, #AI, #tech, #VideoGames, #streaming, #LGBTQ, #furry, or something else? What cause would most entice you? #OpenSource, #NonProfit, #Democracy, #Freedom, or just non-#toxic #SocialMedia?

Please respond to and #boost this #poll, and let me know your thoughts in the #replies! (Sorry for #hashtag #spam, trying to maximize #reach for #diversity and volume of #responses)

@randulo
Honestly, it's a pattern I keep chipping away it every time I see it to try and get people to break those bad habits of, you know, "I only have 280 characters" mindset (or even worse, just a flat-out cross-post). We have (at least) 500 characters here, and adding #hastags to your #mastodon post will GREATLY increase it's #reach and #discoverability. You all have a unique audience here waiting to find you, so make sure they find you! Build it, with hashtags, and they will come. 🙂

@briankrebs Now that you have a few months of Mastodon use under your belt, whats the verdict regarding reach and "interactivity"?

Any insights to share? Given your previous fellowship it would be interesting to learn about what you have learned.

Oui malgré une propagande intensive pour faire croire l'inverse, les lobbies ont assez bien torpillés le projet #REACh

Since I spend a lot of time mentoring and teaching, very often I think about how to reach new people with my content. Do you have any good examples of strategies that worked? Let me know!

I feel you. Sometimes I put a lot of effort in a toot and it just dies immediately. This is frustrating, and you probably feel it quite often a day, as you generate a lot of (wonderful) output.
I have several thoughts about this:

1) First thing is the timezones: because of the strict temporal order on Mastodon, it is difficult that your toots arrive people in other timezones or with other Mastodon-activity patterns.
A solution could be to autoboost (automatically ? Somebody should make a script for this...) after 8 or 12 hours.
In your case this seems perfectly valid to me. If somebody doesn't like it, they can mute your boosts but still receive your toots (as you mostly write your own toots and don't rely on boosting other people's messages, the experience would be similar to now).
When I go to your profile page, I see how many toots you made I have missed... (Mastodon toots are pretty ephimeral).
You could do a poll about this whether your followers think that autoboost after X hours is a good idea.

2) you seldom use hashtags. I am not sure whether people use them really, except for really nerdy topics (I, for example, still can't figure out how to filter for multiple hashtags simultaneously, making the feature not very useful). So, I am unsure whether they really add discoverability or not.

3) I usually feel hesitant to boost too frequently about similar topics from the same channel (my reason is, that if somebody of my followers is really interested in the topic, they should follow you directly). This might be a wrong understanding of Mastodon-etiquette, but I can't help (maybe due to cultural-educational trauma, I am always worried about annoying people that follow me 😅).

4) we have to be realistic about thw amount od ACTIVE people on Mastodon. It's growing and I think, at least in English (and some other languages) the critical mass is reached to make it interesting and engaging, but many accs are relatively inactive and for not super mainstream topics there aren't so many people here.

5) we have to be emotionally resilient in media, and even more in social media. Even when a toot is not boosted, it has probably reached hundreds of your followers (not everybody gives stars, sometimes also because they don't want to clog your notifications).
This reach is something we should not forget.

Anyway, thank you for your great work and I hope you find the energy to continue it for a long time (but taking care of your emotional/mental wellbeing, please).
