We’ve been amazed by the support the Fediverse has shown us after we launched our Community Feeds. Thank you.

Don’t forget, if you want to subscribe to our Community Feeds, we recommend you add them to a list and remove from your home feed. @FediTips has made a useful guide you can see here: https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-the-lists-feature-on-mastodon/

@ellane Yes, as has been said already (sorry to repeat), one can follow the hashtag and have lots of lovely posts come up in your home feed that one may not have seen otherwise.

But what I'm thinking of, is because I like to curate my intake of content, it would be great if we could add the obsidian tag to one of our #MastodonLists , and then set that list to only show those posts when you are on your list page, but not in your home feed.

I feel like this would free up the home feed a bit more, and allow one to consume certain content at times that are personally more suitable. Like not getting posts about work related topics when I am enjoying my time off for example :P

I do this with news accounts here, so that my feed isn't filled with news but instead with real peoples posts. But I can still pop onto my list page and get the news when I want to.

On an Android:
You can insert gifs by going to your emoji icon (next to the space bar). Along the bottom, you will see "gif". Choose that. [See image below for an example.]

Then you can search for a gif. When you find one you want to insert, just tap it once. You might not see it, because it might be hidden behind the gif examples in your search. Don't worry.

The gif examples will not go away until you tap on your phone's "back" button. Once you do, you should see your gif.

I'm told there are other ways to do it, but this is the one I know best.

(Also, don't forget to use hashtags, so people can find your posts. There is no algorithm here, like there is on Twitter, to push things into your feed.)

Can't believe I've made over 1000 posts here already, in just a few short months! I know the majority of those must be reblogs though. I would really like more separation between own content and reblogs btw.. is there an app where it's easier to sort? I'd like to see my whole stream with just original posts, sometimes - I know I can set that option per user followed, but does any app allow that as a view for the whole stream?
