So, since JoinMastodon.org has decided to change the way servers are listed on their website — showing preference for large servers who do not have a manual review process to join —>

May I ask that you Boost this post so people can find us at https://mstdn.games ?  

We’re an all-inclusive #gaming community and our Local feed is amazing — absolutely the go-to place for all things #Games. Our Mods are top tier.

@britt @64bithero just joined this server less than an hour ago came across after scouring everywhere for a gaming focused server with little success. Found this little gem- so far not disappointed. Hey everyone ☺️

@harrybo93 Hey, nice to have you!

It's hard to guess the level of expertise of new arrivals, so sorry if the following is already obvious. 😄 But as you are replying to a post, only people browsing the replies or following both you and Britt will see this post.

So if you want to send a “hey everyone“, you might want to do it with a stand-alone public posting. :)

If you need any help, please feel free to reach out.

@Sven oh right, so if I reply to someone in the local timeline, they won’t necessarily be notified, only if they follow me or happen to check the replies to their post?

@harrybo93 The ones you mention will get a notification. So 64bit and Britt will see mentions/notifications of your reply. It's also visible to everyone browsing her posting's reply and everyone (in their home feeds), who follow both of you (i.e. Britt & you).

So if you just meant 64 and Britt by “everyone“, then I totally misread and you did everything just fine. 😅

@Sven ahh gotcha, no don’t worry I understand it- not necessarily new to Mastodon, just this instance. Had me worried, thought you guys had some weird notifications setup for a second haha!

@harrybo93 Haha, no, we're running pretty much standard Mastodon. Sorry for the confusion. 😄

We've seen a lot of completely new Mastodon users in the past, so we try to keep an eye out to help where it might be necessary. Not without false-positives, obviously. 😅

Still, feel free to hit up any of us, if you need anything. Even beyond basic questions. 😉

@Sven no worries haha- I know you’re dealing with a bit of the fallout from .lol as well so all good!
