If you want to keep track of posts related to the hashtags T2pub, T2, T2social, Pebble and PebbleIs you can do the following.

Steps for software / instances:

1: Search for the hashtag

2: Click the hamburger menu in the top-right corner of the hashtag page

3: Click the +Pin link

4: Click the hamburger menu again in the newly created column

5: Click the option “Include additional tags for this column”

6: Under the “Any of these” field, add , , , and (that is “pebbleis” not “pebbleLs”).

7: Click the hamburger menu to close it.

From that moment on, any posts your instance receives with those hashtags will appear in that column.

My account here on pebble.social is to help the instance federate with the rest of the network.

^_^

You can always reach me over at @youronlyone or @youronlyone If anyone needs help, or the instance, hit me up, I'll see where I can be of assistance.

Oh! I was back in / and Pebble/TW Authenticated too.

If you're migrating over from Pebble, the original founders have decided to experiment with their own Mastodon instance.

@box464 Wait. That was the team? I thought it was a effort.

Interesting!

@T2pub So apparently Gabor started a subreddit thingie for Pebble people to join? Because we don't already have enough to figure out between Mastodon and BlueSky, and because I guess he and the others can't be bothered to just hang out with us on either of those? No, I'm not feeling terribly gracious about it because just... why? But anyway, for anyone who wants it... https://www.reddit.com/r/pebble_is/

@prysmcat If they chose a or instance (which are connected to the network), then it would have been fine.

But since it's . Nope. Nah.

See for example: https://kbin.social && https://r.nf

Posts from there will appear in the Fediverse, so you don't have to create a new account, you just have to follow.

To / migrants, check the hashtags and as there are links shared through these hashtags before. You might find it useful.

You can also follow @feditips for more tips.

Or ask over at .

Of course, don't forget to introduce yourselves and tag it with and hashtag your topic of interests. It's all about hashtags in the fediverse network.

One last thing, do check out over at https://fediverse.info/explore/people You can find more people to follow by searching the database by hashtag topic. You can also list yourself there (the instructions on the site will guide you). See, for example: https://fediverse.info/explore/people?t=T2pub

@Helene I'll answer this one here. ^_^

> That illustrate my main feeling on Mastodon : so many instances, I'm missing so much from all those places I will never see. And I don't have time to duplicate myself like you do, it's already too much with T2-Bluesky-Mastodon 😬

It's a good question.

At first, it appears that one is missing a lot because there are different instances or servers. However, if we consider it from the + + + + + + + era/setup, it is actually the same thing.

  1. Even on these non-federated platforms, for example Twitter / #X, you actually miss a lot too. Or from Facebook, you actually see only those that Facebook's algorithms want you to see (you don't even see everything from your 1st Level connections [i.e. those you added as friends and those you chose to follow are also filtered by their algorithm]).

  2. If you want to follow someone using Instagram but doesn't have a presence on Twitter, you will be forced to create an Instagram account.

Or, they have a Twitter account, but they are not updating it because they chose to make Instagram their main presence.

This is where the has an advantage: you don't have to create a account to follow someone who prefers to share images and photos.

Or if you want to follow a blog, you don't have to create a account, if they added the / Fediverse add-on, you can follow them from your own fediverse account.

In the old way, you have to create an account for each platform. However, in the Fediverse way, you don't have to.

I have a Pixelfed and account, to mention a few, for my images and needs. If you like to follow images I upload and/or books I've read, you can follow me at @youronlyone and @youronlyone using your existing @Helene fediverse account.

You don't have to create accounts there, like how you would for Instagram and Goodreads.

People like me, who have multiple accounts in the fediverse network, are advance users and who have specific needs and reasons.

It is like having multiple emails: I have a separate email per service/platform. I have a separate email per games.

While waiting for my truck to be repaired, drove around the Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge to look at some birds.

A juvenile black crowned night heron stands with yellow legs on the tangled bare branches of the brush along the edge of a small pond. The brown bird had pale tan speckles across the wings and back with white streaks down its neck. A long yellow bill extends forward from a light orange eye.
A red tailed hawk perches on the very end of a thick bare grey branch. A dark eye glints in the sunlight as it looks out over a hooked yellow and black beak. Long brown wings extend down to the edge of the tail, the signature red feathers hidden beneath the other feathers. The round chest shows the common white chest with a brown band across the middle. A clear blue sky fills the background.
A copper and silver male American kestrel perches on the top of a white USFWS boundary sign that reads "Area Beyond This Sign Closed. All public entry prohibited." The small hunter is turned to look back over its shoulder, the two black strikes down it's head visible against the distance brown mountains.

So, does the group catch replies or do I have to edit the original post if I forgot the ? @t2pub

Figured I'd test out a couple other Mastodon clients/apps/whatever. Hyperspace looks great, except that the text is so tiny I'd have a headache in minutes, and I don't see a way to change it. (Even ctrl-+ in the window makes no difference.) Looks lovely though, and if it weren't for that, I'd probably use it. Single-column, not a huge number of options you have to mess with.

@prysmcat@universeodon.com avatar

@wlf_warren Do you mean the hashtag ? Anyone can see that from anywhere.

If you mean, can we see pebble.social... we can see people with accounts on it the same way we see anyone else. But there is a "local" feed on pebble.social that (I think) you can only see if you have an account there.

I THINK that's how it works. That's what I'm understanding from explanations, at least.

I've been reflecting on what T2 / Pebble meant to me as it shuts down. Here's my thoughts as a shareable image

Seems to me like bluesky has captured good market share in terms of people caught up in the T2/Pebble migration

I really just want to concentrate on one social media platform, if possible. What are the merits of Mastodon over Bluesky and vice versa?
