Since I’m new here in #Mastodon can anyone tell me if I can view all content & posts on other servers or just mine in the #MindlySocial orb? I’ll be patiently waiting.🙄😂
Also, how do I post a GIF? 🙈

@tazzman22 Yes, you can view all posts on all other servers that Mindly.Social knows about in the Federated timeline which I think is missing from the official iOS app. You'll need to switch to a different app like Tooot or Metatext (might not be receiving updates anymore).

Alternatively, you can use the browser and have access to all of the features.

Currently no GIF support built into Mastodon.

I put together an FAQ for new users that might also be helpful: https://faq.mindly.social

@KuJoe @tazzman22 But when you say "no GIF support", you mean a built in thing to choose one from, yes?
...not that animation doesn't work.

@WhimGruent @KuJoe Yes, built-in. Assuming you could import one via photo portal.

@tazzman22 @KuJoe then yeah, there isn't a built-in Gif picker/search, but like you suggest... you can upload one from your comp/device.

@WhimGruent @tazzman22 Yes that's what I meant, sorry for the confusion. You can upload GIFs like normal images still and they work normally.

@KuJoe yeah, i tested it on a post i deleted once it worked.
