Has someone asked you to "caption your image" or "add a text description" or "use alt text" and you're not sure what that is, or how?
This page is here to help!
https://m0yng.uk/Image-descriptions-on-the-Fediverse/
Covers most (all?) Android apps, web interfaces, and TUI/CLIs that I know about.
(I know that not everyone can describe things, and that's ok! This page is here to help people who want to but don't know how, or want some tips.)
Deep links should work, e.g. for @Tusky
Update!
mastodon.radio costs:
* £277.80 for the VPS
* €25 for the domain
This provides 8G RAM, 2 CPUs, 160G of storage (we're using around 69G right now but have been bouncing off the previous 81G limit)

Thanks @M0YNG for accepting me here. I'm very excited to see what everybody else has to share.
My current QTH is in Brazil, but I'm originally from LU land. I love to homebrew things and as of lately I'm enjoying SOTA, both as chaser and activator. Lots of fun with that.
And thanks to the maintainers of this Mastodon server!

#introduction of myself:
I like ham radio! It's a million hobbies within a hobby. I really enjoy #QRP #kitbuilding #cw and I'm learning about #POTA
#introductions thank you for the warm welcomes.. and for the record its SmittyHalibut and the Ham Radio Workbench crews fault I am here ;)
At sunset in the forest near the house: Testing a new antenna inv. V on 20m: I managed to tune the length/height/tilt so as to obtain resonance at approx. 14.200 Mhz and good SWR without an antenna tuner (which I do not have for the time being).
TRX powered from 3S/2200mAh li-po battery.
Looking for ideas...
I have an #ESP8266 running #WLED.
I want to take it away from home and connect to other WiFi.
BUT I also want it to connect back home to my #HomeAssistant.
Until someone fixes this to give WLED #WireGuard powers
https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/issues/2634
I think the best bet is to provide my own WiFi which is doing the VPN bit.
But it also has to connect via WiFI...
Or can the #ESP offer network over USB to another ESP?
Everyone, please welcome

I have a problem understanding how DX clusters work: There are different software variants (AR Cluster, DXSpider etc.) - are these also networked with each other and exchange spots or do only nodes of a specific cluster software interconnect? For example: Do AR-Cluster nodes exchange information with DXSpider nodes?

Greetings from W0TTY. This instance is bound to be quite popular and I hope that all of the new stations joining will create profiles and stick around and be active. I want to use #mastodon to share information about amateur radio, various NETs and related subjects. I am active on HF operating #FT8

So I just realized that I didn't really #introduce myself - I am Jonathan (W5AJQ) I live in Salt Lake City. I am a relatively new ham (about a year or so) at 50. I am looking to expand my shack and learn more about "station automation" - I hear people talking about it, but I really would like to see some examples of it. My main rig is a Yaesu FT-991A.
