An email for new account review at Hoosier Social. The description reads: Soft pour over glow in Milwaukee 3 wolf moon x vinyl, minimal edition. Subtly chartreuse, never loud.
So, #Indiana friends: when you set up you new account on #HoosierSocial, try to tell us a little about yourself, and make it... not this.
While there is something poetic about it, I lament the future when these spammers get smarter.
Just finished an interview for a research paper that a couple of Danish students are working on. They wanted to talk to users & Admins of decentralized social media platforms. While talking about trust, safety, and moderation, I was especially proud to explain all of the things that our […]
Shout out to the #HoosierSocial local timeline.
If you don't check it regularly you should! It's easy to find on the web, but the official app makes it a little harder for obscure reasons that I think are extremely terrible and arbitrary.
On my Android I use Moshidon instead of the official […]
Heads up, #HoosierSky!
Apparently I can quote-post another quote-post from Mastodon! Plus I get a callout on my favorite #Hoosier social media site #HoosierSocial on #Mastodon. I'm #HoosierMast famous. My mom would be proud.
Note that if you are on #HoosierSocial and if you have all blurry and broken images, you might have old information in your local browser cache. (Like me!)
If you do a hard reset on the page with Ctrl-Shift-R, that will reload everything from the server, and everything is fixed! Whew!

If you are a member of the online #HoosierMast or #HoosierSocial communities who is considering deGoogling (or deAppling or deMicrosofting or whatever) but don't have the resources, desire, or ability to roll your own Nextcloud, I'm happy to let a few folks piggyback on mine.

Thanks to some recent Nerd Work, I have enough server resources to share with the community.
If you are thinking about moving out of the Google/Apple cloud ecosystem and wanna try an alternative, I can offer you a 100GB account on my family's Nextcloud for free, but only if […]
Just picked up a bunch of #HoosierSocial bookmarks to hand out at the Canal Days festival in Delphi. Spreading the good word of ad-free, tracking-free, algorithm-free, community-managed social media.

Every #Mastodon server should be as cool as @hoosiersocial !
See attached evidence: https://hoosier.social/@thekitmalone/114563763758323767
I would love it if every state (or geographic area) had their own regional instance like we do. Definitely social media for the masses.

#HoosierSocial idea: a summer carry-in picnic for all of #HoosierMast. We'll eat some Indiana food. I'll do some free Indiana entertainment if you want.
We'd just need to find a location and set up a date.
