ok but what does it mean to follow a hashtag? will those posts show up on my home feed?

#mastodon #hashtags #mastodonn00b #help

Not that ANY of this newfound knowledge was gained after screwing up my very first #polls or anything.🀣 Just going to chalk it up to fudge fingers (i.e., those polls were supposed to be single-answer polls!). So, after correcting this, it was quite a surprise to see the poll counters reset.πŸ˜‚ Hopefully other #n00bs will see this & learn from my mistakes to save themselves the trouble.

At 4 AM, I awoke to a loud "CRASH!" What do you think the source of the noise was? I'll ONLY reveal the answer (after the #poll closes) if 10 or more people respond. [ ] Our 3 cats chasing each other...into a bookcase.πŸ˜‚ [ ] A car driving into a neighborhood mailbox CBU. [ ] The garbage truck making its weekly rounds. [ ] My husband knocking into furniture in the dark.🀣

#Mastodon #N00b Discovery: Word to the wise, once you post, you cannot change the #privacy level of your posts. To correct this, choose the "delete & repost" option.πŸ˜† #n00btip #mastodonn00b #tips
Semi-delicate #mastodon #n00b #question: What's the etiquette on boosting your own toots? Is this considered bad form here or just a way to push your old toots back up again to the top of the feed?🀣 After all, "pin on profile" is also an option. #mastodonn00b #mastodonquestion
#mastodon #n00b #question: I've noticed that when I DM people here, sometimes the system posts these messages as if they're toots and not DMs, which is a bit unsettling for obvious reasons. I've deleted the unintentional toots & retried DM'ing them a few times but it's still posting my DMs as toots instead of DMs. What do I need to do differently, if anything, to fix this? I thought all DMs would be listed in the "DM" section? Pls enlighten me, sage tooters. TY! #mastodonn00b #mastodonquestion

@kierisi πŸ‘‹ I'm confused but I'm participating! #MastodonN00b
I remain terrible at Mastodon. I can’t even figure out how to replace my banner photo with a picture of my dog. And now I learn I have to start using hashtags for everything? #badatmastodon #mastodonn00b

Blijft nog wennen om de taal van de toot in te stellen, wanneer ik om en om in het Nederlands of Engels toot

#mastodonn00b

Will do a proper introduction toot, soon, but for now: LOOOOVE the ad-free experience on here, and also that my timeline doesn't refresh suddenly while scrolling or reading. #awesome #mastodonn00b
