Hey, Y'all #peopleofmastodon

On Mastodon, increasing a post's visibility/spread requires #BOOSTING 🔁 the post.

"Favoriting" ⭐ a post is polite & supportive & empathetic & keep doing it 😃 cuz it makes other people feel good, too.

**BUT**

If you want to bring a post to other people's attention, you need to #BOOST it!

#boostthatpost
#stillfiguringoutmastodon
#migratingbirds

It's great to get to know you all.

@MacScienceChic I've been favoriting things if I want to look at them again. Boosting more as I have time to look at the Federated timeline.

@liliales, I've been trying out bookmark and pinned posts, too.

Still haven't figured out how to locate bookmarked posts. #stillfiguringoutmastodon

Pinning seems to be more intuitive.

@MacScienceChic I'll try bookmarking some, then work out how to distinguish that from favorites? I like the lists, I think. Will probably make more as things grow, for ex. if there is one where people put food ideas, maybe. Or music?
