Tip 1: Use hashtags. There's no algorithm to suggest followers or shove posts into your feed in the hopes you follow someone.

Tip 2: Boost (re-post) toots liberally. *You* are the algorithm.

Tip 3: Use CW (content warnings / content wrappers) to discuss politics, the meta.

Tip 4: To create "threads", make the first post public and each reply "unlisted" to prevent clogging up your instance's feed.

Tip 5: Provide text descriptions, even just basic ones, when attaching photos or media.

Tip 6: Use the "report" features for moderating trolls so your admins can take action.

@PoisChiche @tamitha @albinokid Only the first post of the thread will be displayed and boosted on the local notification list. Otherwise each individual toot of the thread will pop up in the list. This is actually a pretty clever trick.

I was just lost at first because unlisted is not an option on the official iOS client. So I guess I'll rather use the webapp until I find a client that implement all mastodon features.
