myrmepropagandist<p>I just had a post reported by "mastodon.online"</p><p>Which is odd because that is a domain, not a user, and there is nothing wrong with the post at all.</p><p>What is going on?

boothy443<p>Ok, so, I can’t change the access settings, it’s locked into private access, which is ok I suppose, but.. I’m only able to pull photos out once. The second time I can access the album but it hangs on adding them to posts. And then subsequently it just fails to access the album. It seems to reset if I restart, but just does the same thing again. And yes I did uninstall and reinstall. So… <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/mastodonhelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodonhelp</span></a></p>
jnkrtech<p>Is there a way to have filters/mutes applied when searching a hashtag? I want to see what people are posting in <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/pokemon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pokemon</span></a> but there’s a bot account that toots with that hashtag every 15 minutes. I muted the account but I still see it while searching the hashtag and it drowns everything out. This happens both in Ivory and in the web UI. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/mastodontips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodontips</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ivory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ivory</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/mastodonhelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodonhelp</span></a></p>

Carl Johnson<p>Very curious to find that my Mastodon account has a Pixelfed account, and that every photo I post here gets posted there. Is that something I did and forgot, or is it an automatic port over to Pixelfed? <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/pixelfed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pixelfed</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Mastodonhelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodonhelp</span></a></p>

She joined the Authorhelp.social instance but that's now decided to close so she needs to migrate but where?
