Like many of you I do my best to keep up with the #news, but I find myself wanting to offset the daily drumbeat with #LongFormJournalism on a variety of interesting non-news topics.
Are there any apps/websites that aggregate this type of #journalism and not news? RSS feeds work too. Thanks!

Ello sweet and lovely Friendos 
I'm slowly tyring to find all my Friendos to follow on Fiendica as well... I try to add the folks I chat with on here. But sometimes, Friendica has issues finding certain folks...
Don't feel pressured in following me back though! I love to be connected with you all there as well, as it does wonders for my time line 😇
Or, feel free to only follow my Friendica, as I try to boost all my other accounts form there (when the node is up and running properly). So, just following me on there would mean less mess of my toots flooding your time line.
I don't care about the numbers. I do care about connecting with wonderful people, and the Fedi sure is full of those! 
Let's see what I can do tonight... Maybe I can write a bit for my blog? 🤔
Catch you later folks!

Do you have any questions about how to use Mastodon or the rest of the Fediverse?
Happy to try to help in this thread, or feel free to ask any time 🙂 (and of course there is also lots of help on the website at fedi.tips)
Any question is fine, am especially trying to help new or non-technical people.

I'm not sure what you mean by titles?
Do you mean a link where there's a bit of text instead of a web address? That's only possible on instances running certain types of non-Mastodon software, I think Friendica supports it for example? (More info on Friendica here: fedi.tips/friendica-a-flexible…)
There's no support for creating this kind of link on Mastodon or forks as far as I know, though they will display it within Mastodon if other types of instances post it.

Hello, everyone. In October of 2024, Facebook shut down their Basic Mobile site, which was fully screen reader accessible. Their main site and apps are terrible to use with screen readers. I therefore switched to Friendica.Akkoma
Not to be outdone by the crocus, the mighty snowdrops have joined the party 🌱🌸

A tip for those who post in multiple languages:
If you mostly post in a particular language, this is probably set up as part of your default locale on your device(s).
So if you post in a different language, it's important to change the posting language in the compose screen to match. Where this option appears depends on what app you are using. In #Tusky and #TrunksApp it's towards the top right.
When an instance has a translate option, this tells it what language to translate from. For example, my default is English so if I see a post in French and select translate, it will translate that post to English for me. If the posting language doesn't match the actual language used (eg you posted in German but left the posting language at its default setting of English), translation will fail.
Also be careful if you edit the post. Some apps will switch the language back to default so you may need to change it again.
I only recently learned this, so I'm passing it on. Boosts appreciated.

Ello sweet and lovely Friendos 💜
I've tried to catch up with all the notifications that I missed, as the node was on- and offline loads today...
Hope I didn't miss anything, if I did, please put a big shiny arrow above it, so I can find it when I'm up again (if the node allows... 😉)
Watching some TV before getting ready for bed. Have a good time folks! I'll catch you when I'm up again 🤗.

Today's #MugShot has gotten three snaps, to include all it's sides...
I'll ask @altbot to help me out with these... My spoons have been spent by my busy brain today... 😔
Of course a tag for the mistress of the Mugshots, the one and only @DoubleTreble 😉

Ugh, craving food again... If I had anything to snack, I'd be gobbling that up at this moment!
I've had my max calories today, so I know I've eaten enough and I could not be "hungry" due to lack of food...
I've done my best to fill up the Samsung Health hearts. I don't think I've shared them for a few days now? 🤔 So let's check them today, after about 13 hours of being up and "running". 😉
Steps 107%
Activity 192%
Calories burned 117%
So I really don't need to consume any more calories today... If I wanna make progress on the scale's stats....
Hope you're all having a good time, with some nice successes towards your goals! 
Catch you all later folks! Gonna relax with some telly...

#MorningAll & #TZAG G’day Squirrel Fans, hope I find you bright eyed & bushy tailed!
Sunday, chilling out & relaxing after yesterday’s exertions, it’s a wet & cooler day today so no gardening for me today!
Have a cracking day #Today & remember #RuleNo1: Don’t let ‘em Cash-ew ! 😊🫶🐿️🖖

I think my Mastodon ate my morning 🤭, so I'm still playing catch up with all my simple tasks for today.
It's a good day though as I can do most of them from my blanket cocoon on the sofa 😃.

Maybe I'll remember to fasten my helmet on properly next time so I won't pass out into a fediverse fever dream 😜. Thankfully the good ship Mastodon pulled me back into the airlock just in time to get a late brunch 😋.
That's my big adventure as a Fedinaut today & I'm sticking to it, like a mastodon to a bag of peanuts 😂.

The weather these last couple of days turned in a more Spring type direction, so we made the most of it with a nice day out yesterday.
We met some swans, and also this absolute madlad of a Collie who attempted (failed) to fight one of the swans. It was ok though because shortly after his humiliating defeat, he found the Best Stick at the bottom of a puddle.
Traipsed around the river and various muddy walking trails, saw lots of dogs.
Found a giant mushroom for the pikmin.
And popped in to TWO Greggses on the way home but neither had any stotties left. Absolutely tragic end to an otherwise lovely day

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. I'm led to believe we are food shopping today, but obviously this could suffer from a last minute change of (MrsD's) mind! After dog walking is done, I'm hoping to get back to book writing. Whatever you are doing today, have fun, have laughs, tell bad jokes. Take care.
Today's photo is for @jacqui76 who loves a lighthouse. This is at Chanory Point on the Black Isle, and is not a very tall one! Photo from November last year.

The node has been more confused than anything tonight, coming, going, loading, not responding...
I've tried to boost the things from my other Fedi accounts here, as far as the node allowed me. So if you can see all my posts/boosts, then you should be up to speed in the silly world of Pixy's Journey through life, and all that... 😊
Hope you all have a good (start of the) Sunday. The weather forecast seems to be kind for today, so hopefully we can het to enjoy it a wee bit.
For now, I'll try to write a bit for my blog and watch some telly. Arwen is snoring loudly on the couch, she's had some good walkies... Catch you all later!

A short, edited, vid that contains two vids of tigers. There are two tigers at Burger's Zoo, and this was my view through the big glass window.
