@fields has outdone himself - he's compiled more tips, tricks and masto-mation and given us this. Thank you, sir! #mastoclass

*edit - I mistagged Adam in my first draft, this corrects that error. My apologies.

@jeffjarvis has made my life less frustrating today with his article about getting started with Mastodon. I highly recommend it for those with limited understanding of the fediverse like myself. Thank you, sir! #mastoclass

Welcome, new people!

Ways to find people to follow, aside from reading the local feed:

1. write an #introductions post, and hashtag the things you're interested in. You can't search by keywords, you can only search hashtags.

2. search for hashtags of things that interest you.

2a. your instance will only search hashtags on federated toots, so to find more, go to a large instance and search their hashtags. Edit this URL: https://mastodon.social/tags/knitting
