benjamin melançon<p>Tomorrow, Thursday, 3pm Eastern we will meet to discuss ensuring sufficient statistical and democratic rigor for making content moderation decisions for mass media as people called upon to take their turn inevitably miss it.

Julian Bryson<p>Don't forget, that if you want others to see this, click boost, not favorite.

Karen Teago 👀<p>I'm working on my curation of mastodon - remember, here we must <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/BeTheAlgorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BeTheAlgorithm</span></a>. The Advanced Web Interface in the browser is pretty intuitive once activated. Took me a little while to work out how to get beyond 3 columns but I'm there now! Here's how I did it. <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/mastodontips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastodontips</span></a> </p><p>First of all, I activated the AWI</p><p><a href="https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-mastodon-and-the-fediverse-advanced-tips/#HowToActivateTheMastodonAdvancedWebInterface" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fedi.tips/how-to-use-mastodon-</span><span class="invisible">and-the-fediverse-advanced-tips/#HowToActivateTheMastodonAdvancedWebInterface</span></a>.</p><p>Series of screen shots coming so each needs its own toot I think, to follow...</p>
Karen Teago 👀<p>I still have another 2 weeks with my arm in plaster which gives me time this weekend to:</p><p>1. Curate my Mastodon experience <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/BeTheAlgorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BeTheAlgorithm</span></a></p><p>2. Find new Mastodon friends on this instance and others</p><p>3. Find old friends here and encourage more lovely folks to come and join in here from the Other Place</p><p>4. Bung some quids to support the upkeep/upgrade of this server</p><p>5. Phone my mum 😂</p>
AxWax<p>Apologies - too much boosting can be a bit overwhelming, so for my own sanity and productivity I&#39;ll have to mute the above post (at least for a while).</p><p>Nevertheless, keep boosting/re-tooting/reblogging all those great people around you - especially if they are just starting out!</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BeTheAlgorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BeTheAlgorithm</span></a> - <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BoostAllTheThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BoostAllTheThings</span></a> !</p>

AxWax<p>To add to the above:</p><p>Since there is no <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>algorithm</span></a> it is really important that you <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/boost" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>boost</span></a> interesting posts by others. </p><p>A star (liking) does nothing to help increase a post&#39;s visibility beyond the original author&#39;s followers.</p><p>I know it is strange coming from 🐦, but it really is the only way to increase a post&#39;s audience.</p><p>So <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BoostAllTheThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BoostAllTheThings</span></a> (if you like them) and you will notice others will do the same to your content.
