This seems like an appropriate first comic for mastodon.
@oatmeal Welcome, it’s great to see you on here!
@oatmeal Very appropriate initial post!
@oatmeal Also, here's some standard advice for all newcomers:
1️⃣ Follow @feditips and @FediFollows for tips on the platform and cool new people.
2️⃣ Make an #Introduction and #TwitterMigration post, then search those tags for new people to follow.
3️⃣ Put your Mastodon handle in your Twitter profile so people can use Debirdify or Fedifinder to grab and import it. You'll probably want to run one as well:

Debirdify

This is a web app that helps you find out which of the people you follow on Twitter are on Mastodon/in the Fediverse already and follow all of them easily.

@oatmeal it's good, but needs alt text. But welcome to the fediverse, will follow.
@oatmeal excellent, glad you’ve made it over to here!
@oatmeal Oops. Guessed I shoulda thanked you over here. 😀
@oatmeal Cool - hope you add more alt text in the future but nice to see you here 🖐️

Attached: 1 image Did you forget to add #AltText? You can't directly edit the alt text, but you *can* edit the toot with #Mastodon 4.0, deleting the image and re-adding it with alt text. (Please use better alt text than I used in this example - I was just trying to be quick for this video.) #Accessibility #Tootorial #FediTips

@oatmeal YOU'RE HERE!!! I'M SO HAPPY
@oatmeal holy shit, it's great to see you here!
@oatmeal Good to see you here. The Blerch motivated me many years ago. And now I fear large huge wasps.
@oatmeal I look forward to your mastodon humor!
@oatmeal Holy fuck Oatmeal is on Mastodon!
@oatmeal I’ve been following your comics for about 10 years! You were the one who got me over to Mastodon ❤️

@oatmeal 4+ years from sign-up to 1st post

Epic Levels of Appropriateness 🤣

@oatmeal Great to see you here!
@oatmeal Okay, the Oatmeal is here! This #TwitterMigration thing may in fact be happening! 😀
@oatmeal welcome to your first mastopost :)
@oatmeal I am so happy you are here! 🥳
@oatmeal Glad you’re here! Welcome to the party.
@oatmeal Welcome aboard sir! The #TwitterMigration has gotten to the point where ALL of my fave follows are already here! W00t!
@oatmeal A very appropriate introduction.
@oatmeal Oh bloody freakin' hell my wife is mad at my fan-ferret screaming!
@oatmeal good to see you here!!!
@oatmeal ‘Rotten Musks’: a card game I’d be happy to back.
@oatmeal use some # in your bio to help people find you! #Comic #TheOatmeal
@oatmeal Very happy to see you here on Mastodon.
@oatmeal sweet. Welcome to the party.
@oatmeal I stopped using Twitter several years ago because it was such a hot mess. As a Tesla owner and Musk fan, Elon has completely lost the plot. Twitter+Musk=NOPE!
@oatmeal I want you to know it was your email that convinced me to try this social network. I figured it can’t be bad if the guy who wrote a whole cartoon about Nikola Tesla is going to it.
