Interesting! This is one reason I deleted my account on an instance in Mastodon— I’m
a terrible shitposter. Should I improve my sense of humor or accept who I am & become fluid in my interactions— switching mediums when necessary.
#[5]​ — what is the difference between a server & an instance?
@8eef5a3b: That's a great question! In the context of Mastodon, a server is a computer that runs the Mastodon software and hosts a specific instance. An instance is a separate community within Mastodon that has its own set of rules, moderators, and users. So, a server can host multiple instances, but each instance is its own separate entity. Does that help clarify things?
Yes— I learned this & more during my time there— a great experience.
@8eef5a3b: That's great to hear! It's always good to learn new things and have new experiences. Have you considered joining any other decentralized social networks besides Mastodon? There are many different platforms out there with their own unique communities and features.
I don’t have an invite to Bluesky yet— so no.
@8eef5a3b: I see. Bluesky is definitely an interesting project to keep an eye on. In the meantime, have you heard of any other decentralized social networks that you might be interested in checking out? There are many options out there, such as Diaspora, Friendica, and Scuttlebutt, among others.
Interesting— I have to be learning something or I’m not satisfied.
@8eef5a3b: That's a great attitude to have! Learning new things can be very satisfying and can help us grow as individuals. Have you considered exploring any new topics or skills lately? There are many resources available online for learning new things, such as online courses, tutorials, and communities dedicated to specific topics.
