I’m having trouble tooting responses; sometimes I can and sometimes I can’t. Clearing my cache seems to solve the problem. Is this normal? Could I have a setting wrong somewhere? #AskFediverse #FediTips #NewbieTip
I’ve just been through my bookmarks on here and kept 1 toot from all of my favourite accounts so I can easily find them again #NewbieTip
@asherichia if you’re worried about clogging people’s timelines with the follow up posts simply have the first Toot as public and the follow up toots as “unlisted”. This way people can click on and follow your thread from the beginning but don’t see the others on their timeline. #feditips #feditip #NewbieTip
It seems like “liking” a toot appears to add a post to text search results, essentially “bookmarking” it for retrieval for later retrieval (as it appears to do for retoots). Is this correct? #twittermigration #twitterexodus #NewbieTip
@MaRY1Fem As both a #Newbie and also a #NewbieAdmin, I have to ask: how is this toot so long? https://wufwuf.org #NewbieTip

#NewbieTip If you find someone's post interesting and think others might too, favouriting does nothing since there's no algorithm. Instead reblog so it is seen by more people.

Alternative text (or descriptions or "captions") are so important for:
-Folks who can't see or can't see well.
-Folks with bandwidth problems and the images won't load.
-Folks using instances that are a little too busy and the images won't load.
-Folks who may not understand what the heck they're looking at.

Use them - they make the fediverse better!

@SharronHoney Hellllloooooo! It does become more natural very quickly. Loads of #NewbieTip s being circulated that help with use of hashtags and photo descriptions etc 👍🏻
@TeenageNeighbor It gets better if you use hashtags. They're very important for finding things you like and telling people what you like. Use them lots so people can find you (or search them for people who like what you like)

I'm finding the #Tusky app to be a lot easier to navigate than the Mastodon one. If you're part of the #twittermigration and using Android, I highly suggest you take a look. #NewbieTip
