One thing I relied on heavily with Twitter was notifications. I turned up important voices, and their information came to me.

Is there an equivalent in any Mastodon app?

@kmakice The Metatext app sends me notifications.

@jamieBGN Iโ€™ll have to try that out, thanks.

Any features missing from that app that you wish were there?

@kmakice @jamieBGN Metatext fan here too

Jumping from home to local to fediverse timelines is super easy.

Hereโ€™s a screenshot

Anyone, can some show me how to put in alt text and to authenticate my photos?

@kmakice @SparkleTea Hmm what about screenshots outside of Mastodon? Thatโ€™s what it was of. Not sure if that makes a difference

@jamieBGN @SparkleTea whatIโ€™m looking for is how to push the notifications to my phone screen when not in an app.

When Iโ€™m in the app, I browse. When Iโ€™m out of the app, I only want certain content/authors pushed to me.

@kmakice @SparkleTea Are you talking about like this?

@jamieBGN @SparkleTea Yes! only the ability to only surface selected people, rather than everything.

Do the notification settings allow for that list to be curated?

@SparkleTea @kmakice Ooh that I donโ€™t know.
