@Jalane_Schmidt @joinmastodon Just asked. Let’s see what shakes out.
@Jalane_Schmidt @joinmastodon Some of the large servers are overwhelmed. If you can find a smaller one that would be a better choice.
I’ll ask around for you and see what I can find. I’ll add more to this thread as I discover stuff.
Hopefully the @joinmastodon folk have time to reach out.
@Jalane_Schmidt @joinmastodon Good morning, Jalen. Take your time making a choice. It’s not as easy as to get started as Twitter but once you’re past the server selection part it gets a bit easier.
Another thing to keep in mind is it’s easy to switch servers after you get started. So keep that in mind.
@KR1573N Ugh

@daverpvb Thanks, Dave! 🧡🙏🏼
@gregtitus I worked on video surveillance systems and our recorders had two 2AM’s at this time of the year and went from 1AM to 3AM in the spring. 🤷🏻♂️
@talishabrand Yeah, maybe? Hopefully they get it under control.
If you’d like to start your own I’d be happy to have a phone call with you to talk about it! 👍🏼
@talishabrand No pressure of course.
@talishabrand Talk to your techie friends, buy a domain, and pay masto.host $6/month to host your Mastodon instance!
Mine has seven folks on it for that price and it runs great. You have to be invited by me to join it.
Mine is curmudgeon.cafe if you’re interested?
@talishabrand Most likely!
@talishabrand The server is probably smoking from the number of people signing up.
Is there anyone you can reach out to for more information?
YES MORE OF THIS PLEASE!
If you’re not aware @adamdavidson has strapped up a Mastodon instance for journalists!
@LifeLongThinker Thank you, Sebastian.
Well, since I work from home I plan on going back to work next week if I’m progressing in the right direction.
The remainder of this week? Who knows? Perhaps read a book? 🤔
@JMBucknall I almost had my daughter graffiti the right leg so they’d leave it alone
They are very cautious about all this stuff. The doc came in and asked which leg we were doing. I said left, he marked up the left leg and signed it. That’s the writing you see. 😃
@drwave I’ve been up a number of times today. I had to cut therapy short, twice, because I’d get nauseated and my BP was really low.
Just walked to the bathroom and it’s feeling pretty good, considering.
It is definitely going swell!
@rawburtkay PT has already visited me!
I work really hard at PT! Big believer! 👍🏼
@jackbrewster Oh yeah! 🦿
@daverpvb Thanks, Dave!
@_davenott Thanks, David!
@flyosity 🙏🏼👍🏼
@twwilliams They’ve been managing my pain really well.
PT came by and it wasn’t pain that stopped me! It was nausea! 🤢
@ScoreVGM YES, YES, YES! 🥳
