     @brusgaard@archaeo.social I'd like to interject for a moment.
     
     What you're referring to as #Mastodon is in fact the #Fediverse. You see, Mastodon is just one of my possible software projects that interact with the wider Fediverse through a protocol called #ActivityPub. There are many other projects you can use, Mastodon isn't the only one, nor was it the first.

     @tyil @brusgaard I'd just to jump into this interjection train.
     
     As always, the fediverse was really enhanced by GNU - look into GNU social.
     
     Although GNU Social wasn't the very first, it was a significant development.

     @brusgaard @Millicent There's always https://www.khanacademy.org/ if you both weren't aware :)
     Or if you want to add your own knowledge on it.

     @Millicent that's great! My maths skills were never great either. It's wonderful when you can encourage the next generation

     @brusgaard good morning! Looking forward to your posts, good to have you here. Having disappointed myself by lacking the math skills to go into stem I’m doing my part to encourage the next gen - I’ve off-loaded a microscope and our kids’ collection of sharks’ teeth onto a 5 year old. (The trilobites are next).

     @brusgaard Ask your instance administrator to add one. It's possible to add custom emojis. :goose_hacker:

     @brusgaard You can ask your server admin to add more beaver. Or use this one from Unicode 13.0, which may or may not work for everyone: 🦫

     @Loukas I work on the archaeology of human-beaver interactions. No iconography of beavers but I have looked at use of beaver remains as pendants, tools, etc :)

     @brusgaard the archaeology of beaver lodges or the prehistoric iconography of the beaver or both or?
