Why do I see posts from folks I don't follow in my "home" timeline?!? the @feditips page doesn't seem to have anything related to that... I get the "Local" vs "Explore" vs. "Federated" but I can't figure out how those posts make it there... #mastodonrookie 😇

One thing I really valued about #Twitter is the ability to discuss news by quote tweeting trusted journalists/ news stories

I know QTs have a bad rep, but they did allow easy, quick discussion, because the salient points were already summarised in the quoted tweet

And I’m missing that, on here, if I’m honest. Do I just accept that time has gone? Become more considered; less impatient. Or am I overlooking something? 🤔

Still can’t figure out how to add a background pic 🧐

Is there a Matodon App for iOS that allows saving drafts? I am using MetaText (which I love) but I don’t see any such option.
Is this simply something that’s not offered as a Matodon feature?

@estebanmoro As a new Mastodon user I can say that signing up for the first time can be very confusing.
All of the difference instances can cause choice paralysis as well as the idea that "bigger is better" or “I’ll be restricted to a small network” if I choose the wrong instance.
I initially signed up with mstdn.social - after 4 days I migrated to a smaller instance because you learn a lot by using the platform that doesn’t translate just by reading about it!

Hello, I'm a #MastodonRookie, here to partake in friendly discourse on #UsPol and other current events. I'd appreciate recommendations for #ClientApps please. I can't seem to get logged in to #FediLab properly. Thank you.

Who knows, I’m not the best at metaphors. I’m enjoying Mastodon yet can’t front like things can’t or won’t change. Just embrace what this is now because it too can become unrecognizable eventually. The relative simplicity and focus on conversations is refreshing.

Trying something totally new feels as unnerving as the first day at a new school ... simultaneously terrifying and exciting. #mastodonrookie
