I have questions about Mastadon:

1. Are these messages 'toots'? Is that official, out just something I've seen around?

2. Do the servers have different problems, response times, crash rates? I've found this very slow and buggy today. Is that normal? If servers vary in this way, is there a place to see server stats across the system?
@orbitingfrog @Gargron adding admin to thread. Why is #mastodon.online not showing federated or community posts ? Says local timeline is empty and nothing here. I have same issue on two apps and going to website mobile and laptop…..is this related to the 4.0 post I saw? do we wait this out or need to migrate to another server ?
