I'm going to post this everyday until you like it.

Folks who run instances: I pushed a fix for the XML encoding issue, it is live on .social and seems to be working https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/1140

when ur instance gets a rowdy newcomer https://mastodon.social/media/ykbKZsJvl87WshfqWg0

Almost done setting up the #Mastodon #Instance only took me 6 hours to do it all from scratch with little not no experience. :mega:

Here's a thing that makes Mastodon instances work less well than they could...
when you visit an instance, all the front pages look the same.
"About this instance" is a TINY little link under the sign-up form. This is crazy.
Instances should LEAD with a community description, not bury it.
That's like a newsgroup leading with the OS it used to run the newsgroup rather than saying: "This is a Kenny G community"

People who are joining small instances randomly will get pissed when they go offline. When telling friends about Mastodon, try to help them to pick instances that are more likely to stick around!

How to tell which these are: no idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I believe the people going "BUT IT'S REALLY GNU/MASTODON" are being ironic.

It kills me that I'm not actually sure.
