So, you made an account. What do you do now? 🤔

Mastodon does not pick what information you see in your Home feed. You need to follow other users. Don't worry it is simple.

Think of what you are interested in and search for it using a hashtag. For instance just click on:

#Cats #Iran #art #USPolitics #FediTips

...or type any hashtag term into the search box

When you see a good post, just follow that account. It's that simple. You can also follow hashtags.

You can also click Trending...🙋‍♂️

Sorting out the difference between favouriting and bookmarking on Mastodon: ⭐ Favourites are the equivalent of likes. When you favourite a post it lets the post's author know you liked it. 🔖 Bookmarks are a private way of keeping track of posts that you want to read later. When you bookmark a post, only you know about the bookmark. The author of the post does not know.

You can use Mastodon through your server's website, or through apps, but did you know there is also a third option? "Web apps" let you get the best of both worlds, with all the unrestricted features of the website but also notifications and a full-screen interface. It's really easy to install web apps, you can find out more in the guide at: ➡️ https://fedi.tips/how-to-install-web-apps-for-mastodon-and-the-fediverse It's not just Mastodon either, lots of Fediverse platforms offer web apps. #FediTips #Mastodon #Fediverse #WebApps #PWA

Did you know? Today is Key Rotation Day!

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, staying ahead of the curve is non-negotiable. To ensure maximum security, all private and public keys should be rotated by 180 degrees until 2027-04-01T00:00:00Z.

For all users on AMD64 and AArch64 systems, it’s time to pivot! We’re shifting from little-endian to big-endian encoding. Conversely, if you’re on a "big-endian" system, it is legally mandated by 67 U.S. Code § 6942 that, until the death of the current reigning President of the United States of America, all keys must be stored in little-endian format.

Why does this matter? It’s all about proactive defense. By implementing these changes, we’re effectively neutralizing "evil maid" access and preventing unauthorized signatures on critical documents, such as from "big brother". Don't let your security posture slip!

Let’s keep our data locked down and our systems resilient fedi!
