Just updated the custom emoji guide so that it also explains how to add custom emoji to your profile name:
➡️ fedi.tips/what-are-custom-emoj…
If you're unsure what custom emoji are, the guide explains all about them and how to use them.
TL:DR - Custom emoji are special emoji added by your server admin that you can use in your posts. People on other servers can see your custom emoji, so you can add cool images in posts that they can't (unless their admin added the same ones)
What are custom emoji? How do I access them? Can I add new ones? | Fedi.Tips – An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse

Used to be that we could type : or ; or something, followed by 😀 and the like and the corresponding emoji would come up.
I am a touch typist and much prefer that to having to take my hands off the keyboard and muddling around with the mouse.
Is that function no longer available? I have been away for a long time, so I have forgotten what the "emoji start symbol" was.

but if I type :cat, I don't get :angrycat.
I'm owned by a cat. I have to know the emojis, right? 😉
Yeah, if you remember the exact name of the custom emoji, you can start by typing :angrycat and it will appear in the suggestions.
The more general keywords don't seem to work with custom emoji.
Given the fact that the US president apparently lacks the intellectual quality and the psychological stability to lead its nation.
When do you think, will he be destituted by his Vice and the Cabinet, in order for them to stay in power?

- before midterm elections (12%, 12 votes)
- term's second half (15%, 15 votes)

How can a 3DPrinting newbie proceed to buy a 3DPrinting device in 2025 which is {mostly} Open Source driven has 3DPrintable components and can print up to the size of an A3 sheet at a height of 40cm?

A3 size is 297 x 420 mm so I want to 3DPrint 297 x 420 x 400mm
We (the world) work with the metric system; inches 2.54cm units of measurement don't speak to me, please convert by division with 2.5 to see the inches you prefer.
You referred me to a whole site without pinpointing a specific printer. Please be so kind to refer me to a direct printer link which is close to the printer I seek

Thank you @Timpostma this points me straight to a printer which has dimensions in the range I seek. It's much **larger** even
Now to check if it's OpenSource driven. Is there anyone who has this 3DPrinting device who can react?
Please boost for reach?
The image displays a product listing for the "Elegoo OrangeStorm Giga High-Speed Large-Format 3D Printer Kit." The main image shows the 3D printer, which has a large, white metal frame with a build volume of 800mm x 800mm x 1000mm. The printer features a control panel on top and a print head with multiple nozzles. Below the main image, there are four smaller images: one showing the printer's structure, another depicting a person handling a printed object, a third showing the interior of the printer, and the fourth displaying multiple printed objects.
The text below the images provides details about the printer, including its build volume, printing speed of up to 300 mm/s, and support for up to 4-nozzle simultaneous printing. It also mentions that the printer requires assembly and offers optional Starter Bundle assistance. The available bundles are Starter (includes 2 hours of Tech Time), Enterprise (includes extra printhead and spool holder kits), and Deluxe (combines both extras and Tech Time). The listing highlights the printer's massive build volume and includes a bullet point emphasizing this feature.

“The majority of cases are between one month and two years old,” says Dr Raed Al-Baba, a gastroenterologist and nutritionist at Al-Awda #Hospital in northern Gaza. He helps treat around 100 #children brought in daily, mostly because of #hunger.

A cyber agency warns TikTok manipulation could hit Romania's vote, again.
Viginum, the French cyber security agency responsible for monitoring foreign digital interference, published a detailed report uncovering a large-scale Russian influence operation that used TikTok to sway Romania’s presidential race last year.
It has warned the same tactics could be used again, as the country prepares for a second round of elections.
