Better write in English, I guess
I think I started in the wrong way by writing in Dutch. Think I will have more interaction by writing in English, I guess.
I have been on Mastodon for a long time (since 2016) and I'm still a daily used of the platform. I closed my Facebook account in 2014, but I'm looking for a replacement and this might be it. It's very quiet, though. But maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.
I will post a nice meme to attract some attention, sorry it's in Dutch, but I think it's easy to understand. I don't see a button for Alt-Text?

"Ik kan nederlands lezen" ... doesn't mean that I understand it, though. 👻

Hm. I'll give it a try (and we'll see how much Markdown I remember) -

... but the easiest is probably just to add the translation below/above it
(I butchered it in Google Translate 🙈)

Your translation is quite accurate!
I just should have posted an English meme. Much easier 😆

What I learned @ diaspora* is that using Tags are your friend.

e.g. #nederlands should get you a bit on the way

#nederlands

@phle @Ronald yep, hashtags work. You can then follow individual accounts. Diaspora accounts can be followed too, and if it isn't on the Fediverse but has RSS, just paste its address in the search bar, and it will fetch it for you.

@phle Yes, you're right, of course. It's the same on Mastodon. And it's always kinda hard to start on a new platform.

Most of us ... or I, at least ?🤔? don't use hashtags in speech, so I easily forget to add them if I'm "away" for a bit.

Compared to diasp., at least I can add them on even after I've posted - on diaspora* I ended up with "oh ... should I post it, tagged, again? ... ".

Een goed alternatief?
Ik ben al sinds 2014 weg van Facebook, maar nu de controversiële uitspraken van Zuck overal in het nieuws zijn vraag ik mij af of er eigenlijk een goed alternatief bestaat. Na lang zoeken ben ik hier terechtgekomen. Ik ben benieuwd of dit een goed alternatief is voor Facebook, al zal het hier ongetwijfeld nog erg stil zijn.
Ik heb ook een maston-account: @Ronald
