Merci und #HappyTooting
So a lot of new folks here 🎉 WELCOME
I arrived 6 weeks ago. A few things I learned:
1️⃣ use movetodon.org to find all your 🐦 friends here
2️⃣ make an #introduction post, pin it to yr profile, share other folks' intro's if they look interesting
3️⃣ follow @feditips and @mastodonmigration for tips
4️⃣ boost if you think others should see it, a ⭐ does not help, no algorithm here
5️⃣ also follow new folks, don't just re-create 🐦 bubble 🗯️

#introductionpost I, like a lot of you, are a #TwitterRefugree. I desperately want a platform where I can be wholly myself.
I'm a mom, a wife, a girlfriend, and a big bundle of anxiety all rolled up into a nerdy, sometimes funny individual.
She/her are my pronouns. Mostly I just want to find good people to discourse with and have a place to express things I can't on other platforms.
You're welcome!
Engagement on #Mastodon is through the roof at the moment with all the newcomers from the #TwitterMigration. I have about 15% of the followers that I have on Twitter, but my toots get several times more boosts/faves and, more importantly, comments from genuinely lovely people. You'll always find the odd dodgy toot but you can block and/or report if you wish.
I tooted some tips for beginners, if you want more of a steer. Just check out my timeline
A reminder & call to use #CamelHashtags - easier to read generally, and more accessible to all.
Thanks to those who've followed me here, too. Can see several #AcWri birds flocking, will keep searching for new & familiar #HigherEducation #AcademicPublishing toops (what d'you call a toot peep?)
Still finding my way around this space - so far, so good, but phone interface slightly less intuitive atm (eg can't set for toot privacy or see DMs).
