1/4 A key thing I've learned about Mastodon: When you find your friends on here, don't just follow them — add them to a list!

If you follow a lot of accounts, your close friends' posts may not show up in your feed at a time you're logged on. Unlike FB or Twitter, Mastodon has no algorithm to resurface your friends' posts from hours or days ago.

Solution: Create a list called "Friends" and check it when you're on. This will ensure that you see what they posted while you were away. (cont'd)

@thelinuxcast I need to ask how to make a list as well! Hopefully I will also find it as soon as this is posted…

@RayB @thelinuxcast Ugh. Not sure I see how to create.

@Goappstate Loved your profile. You remember 14.4? Oh man, my first modem was 300 baud… 9600 and 14.4 were supersonic in comparison! BTW, I am trying other apps for Mastadon since I heard not all have the same level of functionality yet. Hoping to find what I am looking for in one of them.
