  • The biggest effects will come from reducing your carbon footprint. Think about what activities generate the most CO2 and what you can cut. For example, meat production is a big CO2 producer. Reducing/eliminating red meet from your diet will reduce your carbon footprint.

    Obviously, driving is another CO2 producer. If you can bike or walk as much as you can.

    Home cooking/heating is another big source of carbon emissions. You can wear sweatshirts/blankets in the winter and keep your house cold (64-68 F?) and use fans in the summer instead of AC.

    Reusing/recycle also comes up as a possible way to reduce CO2 emissions, but I’m not familiar with the net effect on your CO2 of recycling. Reusing makes sense though.













  • At least for mastodon, you should be able to subscribe to a relay server to push posts to your instance. I’m not sure if there are open ones. Last time I checked, I couldn’t find one still working (ping me if you find one).

    A relay server will push all the messages it knows about to your server so your federated timeline will be less empty.

    The organic way to do it is to follow as many accounts as you can and wait for their boosts to come through your instance. The only problem with it is that you usually get the parent posts a a few replies and you will miss 90% of the conversation.
