Eeeee WooooY’all. Listen up. If you aren’t checking
then you are missing out on a lot of content.
Because the Fediverse has so much variety, lots of really cool stuff trends.
Especially try posts in the last hour.
@mimsical just a thing about a thing…
I made home page icons on my various devices for feditrends.com - I check that ten times a day like I used to check Twitter. What’s mega-cool about it is you don’t have to sign in - so I use it to introduce people to this world. #mastodon411
Many people need a reminder that they exist. That’s part of why we favorite things on mastodon. Just to say “I see you and it’s cool you shared your time with us!” #mastodon411
@bodhipaksa hashtags do matter #mastodon411
You can’t be on “data gathering social
media sites” saying TikTok has to go. They are all problematic.
China accumulating data about Americans is a problem.
Facebook gathering our data is a problem. Twitter is a problem.
The Fediverse is fine.
Make sure to support your instance if you can afford it. You might want to support other instances if you notice you access a lot of their users’ content.

I just had an exchange in which I shared info about feditrends. The first person said “what does that have to do with the conversation” and the second one said “I know about it but I can really only get what I want from Twitter”.
Don’t be these people.
If someone shares a tool with you - if you already know it’s useful… BOOST IT!
If someone goes out of their way to reply to you, don’t act like they’re stupid.
I unfollowed the person I was following and blocked them both.
I’m not here for that.
ENJOY THE DAY Y’ALL!
Y’all. Tell your friends to stop sleeping with the devil.
This is the place to be. Help them pick a server. Help them follow a couple hundred people and some hashtags.

This is not mentioned that often (even though it’s pretty obvious) but you can actually have more than one account! On the same instance or a different one. Then you can use one to follow all the bee related stuff and use the other for all the rest.
I have one for general
stuff and one for my local geographic area.
Some apps let you switch between your multiple accounts.
Y’all. This is useful. Shows trending mastodon hashtags. And they are clickable links. https://freebird.network/ #mastodon411
GenKnoxxGotta use #hashtags to allow people to discover content. Regular folks AND journalists. Telling people that often results in “don’t tell me what to do” or “troll”. It’s frustrating. It doesn’t help me if y’all use hashtags. It helps all of mastodon to find your content. It’s like folks are coming here and deliberately breaking it. Flooding servers with content no one will see. @shatter @mattblaze @mark @WowSuchCyber
