beige.party is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

Hello my name is Ben and I am a self-booster

There doesn't seem to be many of us around. Either that's because I am a disgusting monster or because others may not know how to do this (or a combination).

At the risk of telling people how to Mastodon.... if you're at all interested in searching either yours, or anyone else's (pending their settings) old posts you can do this by searching:

From:person keyword

For example...

From:me soup

This will then return all of your available previous posts mentioning soup.

Or if you want to search someone else's soup chat, you simply replace 'me' with their @:

From:@TheBreadmonkey soup

Further to this, you can add to the end:

Before:2023-09-30

From:@TheBreadmonkey soup before:2023-09-30

... and this will return all available results from that person before that date!

Happy souping, everybody!

@TheBreadmonkey You aren't the only one, I noticed it is quieter here now. Bsky, perhaps?

@SnowshadowII

Who knows! Each to their own. Blueskyers gonna Bluesky I s'pose!

@TheBreadmonkey yup. I go there for a few minutes each day to check on Canadian politicians announcements and a few news sources from Europe, and to block the bots who follow but I am not a fan of the platform. It's like twitter....
My anxiety kicks in when there.

And the next time someone complains about spam/porn bots from dot social I'm going to tell them open an account on Bsky and they will afterwards be silenced! I waste so much damned time blocking them on --it's annoying!
