Happy Thursday, everyone.

@Lauravs I’ve been stuck at home but https://iconoclastcoffee.com/ is a nice spot

@atahar thanks for sharing this article!

@tuanle hashtags are actually quite important for doing analytics with a platform like Mastodon.

It is worth spending some time looking into the practice of developing effective hashtags that will support data analytics. See, for instance, https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8258194

@Trinitechsteward name this #pestID

with Mastodon instance, tech stewards and extension officers could create their own hashtags for tracking, organizing, and searching posts

@Kamalidadigam we could add the #plantID hashtag to help locate these kind of posts.

@Lauravs thanks for testing out the instance!

Different publishing levels on Mastodon. The platform does not provide e2e encryption, even for direct messages.

Please welcome @Kamalidadigam to our Mastodon instance!

@Trinitechsteward what are we looking at in these photos? what hashtag would you add to them?

Everyone welcome @Trinitechsteward to our Mastodon instance!

Everyone welcome @Adelle to our Mastodon instance!

@kanishkageeth different apps or “frontends” might render threads differently too. Idk.

@kanishkageeth check the section here on threads and ramifications https://mastodon.help/

@kanishkageeth I’m not sure what you mean.

@kanishkageeth @uvasara it works!

@tuanle this is nice autumn weather!

Everyone, please welcome @kanishkageeth to our Mastodon instance!

@tuanle very nice! Enjoy your visit!
