Another reminder, since we got a lot of new people!

Please assume all messages you send on any mastodon instance are not private. While we have no interest in reading your private messages, they are not encrypted in sending or receiving instances, and we cannot guarantee your privacy, especially when they cross instance boundaries.

If you have something private and sensitive to say, take it to another, more privacy-oriented system.

Thank you and happy tooting!

@Taniwha Are toots and favorites the same thing?
Show threadTani Aura

@RunningFaster a toot is a message on mastodon like the one you just sent. Since you are asking, your favorites are not private either.

Just assume that everything you do on mastodon is public and you’ll have a much better experience.

@Taniwha So toots(publishes) are posts and favorites are likes (or are they bookmarks)?

@RunningFaster bookmarks are separte from each other.

Toots are definitely toots (posts). :)
