  1. Well I’m glad I’m totally lazy and tried to get my dad @freddiebrown999 to move me to aus.social server and so didn’t actually move bc I’ve now absolutely been sold on sticking where I am. #mastodoninstance #MastodonNewbieTips #twittermigration #ImNotGoodAtFollowingRules 😂

  2. I can’t find the original toot that mentioned this, but here’s a reminder: please put all hashtags at the end instead of interspersing them in the body of your message. When alt readers process the sequence of “hashtag topic” it’s a mashup that creates a barrier to communication.

  3. Does anyone know how I would choose what to bookmark vs. favorite? #mastodonnewbietips

  4. Still feel like I’m the new kid in school, trying to figure out what I’m doing and how things work. Does anytime have any tips they want to share? #MastodonNewbieTips

  5. This may be obvious to all, but I just discovered that if you press on your avatar on the bottom of the page and hold your finger down, you can link to your other accounts. #MastodonNewbieTips

  6. @feditips
    Finally had a chance to read some of the tips. Very well done. If I started with your website fedi.tips I would have saved myself some consternation (toots, instances, edit images), but figuring it out also meant I spent a lot of time interacting with people and toots. Win/Win either way. Definitely recommend for those who want to spend less time floundering.
