Helloooo! Yes, it’s me. No idea how this works yet
@MagdaSzubanski Certainly makes at least 2 of us! Actually think I signed up for MastAdon as well but can't seem to find it now. It's a little worrying.
@MagdaSzubanski you and me both - but we'll work it out!
Very chuffed you're here. ❀️
@MagdaSzubanski hi there!! There are a lot of us trying to get the hang of this.
@MagdaSzubanski Welcome M. We drive on the left mostly. You will get used to the traffic..
@MagdaSzubanski I joined bc I saw your post on Twitter. Thanks! I have no clue what im doing either 🀣
@MagdaSzubanski I’m very slowly learning too! πŸ˜€
@MagdaSzubanski
Hi Magda
This joint is more akin to Reddit than Twitter
@MagdaSzubanski love you , it’s certainly going to take a while to get used to this platform.

@MagdaSzubanski

Hi Magda, I see it as being 16yrs & 9mth old again, going out for my first drive. Started in the back blocks & worked my way into town once I got the hang of it.

@MagdaSzubanski
Right then, I’ll give it a go too.
I will forever dine out on the fact that I spent a moving, magical evening with Magda and Richard E Grant. Well, in the vicinity of…
@MagdaSzubanski hellooooo! I’m also wearing my mastodon L plates :)
@MagdaSzubanski I've seen a few posts recommending to follow @feditips for helpful info.
@MagdaSzubanski It takes a little while to get the hang of it, but it’s a much nicer place. Hard question can be asked & topics discussed, but the tone is civil or better.
@MagdaSzubanski Hellooo, me either but I found you!!
@MagdaSzubanski it takes a little while, but apart from a few different kinda protocols like using hashtags and stuff, it seems a lot the same, but so much more nicer to disabled, gay and non conforming people πŸ’ͺ🏻
@MagdaSzubanski Welcome! It’s pretty friendly over here.
@MagdaSzubanski Join the club. My naivety betrays me. I'm a bit scared of speaking here in case I get it wrong.
@MagdaSzubanski Me either love but I'm sure we'll figure it.....or maybe not :
@MagdaSzubanski nobody does. It's all the fun of the fair. Love your profile pic. So cheerful. Glad you are here.
@MagdaSzubanski come on in darling the waters fine!
@MagdaSzubanski we’ve all got β€œM” plates on !
@MagdaSzubanski
We are all refugees fleeing a conflict. However we will not be greeted by Peter Dutton here.
Come, sit down, let's talk, let me make a drink for you.
@MagdaSzubanski I'm still trying to work it out. It's rather pleasant here is what I have found.

@MagdaSzubanski Great to see you here.

I think us newbies are all making it up as we go along.

I have found that many system people and well experience people put out posts every now and again and for me they have such useful reads on how to do things.

A couple of lessons I have learnt.

People are serious about content warnings (this is a little icon with either CW or ! in a shield that covers your message and you put the topic on top. If in doubt us the content warning is my advice.

Secondly, and wonderfully, people here are also serious about accessibility. If you load an image people are expected to describe the image for blind people. I have found a bot that reminds me, and if I forget another bot that tells me politely I have mucked up and you can delete the post and repost fixing the assessibility issue.

Finally, I have just been following people in my local and federated feed; so many new and unique people to follow.

@MagdaSzubanski Oh thank goodness, a familiar face!
@MagdaSzubanski . . . i feel a strange disturbance in the force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. i fear something terrible has happened . . .
@MagdaSzubanski Hi Magda, lovely to see you here! It’s seems quite nice so far although I’m still working it all out.
@MagdaSzubanski we are pioneers πŸ˜‚
What is Mastodon?

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

@MagdaSzubanski Just post what you want to say, reblog, favourite, hashtag, and address the elephant.
@MagdaSzubanski Me either Magda, very confusing
@MagdaSzubanski I have no idea either! What a ride!
@MagdaSzubanski welcome, we can all figure it out together!
@MagdaSzubanski me neither. Have a gratuitous photo of my dog
@MagdaSzubanski hi hi hi

@MagdaSzubanski we're all learning together. Nice to see you here xxx
@MagdaSzubanski

@MagdaSzubanski yep me neither but it feels good to leave the clutches of an idiotic US billionaire who flicks over workers and clients .
@MagdaSzubanski hi Mags, welcome! It's ok, none of us seem to have a clue yet 🀣🀣🀣🀣
@MagdaSzubanski *gasp. You are finally here!! Welcome Magda ❀️😊
