Oh my goodness... a LOT of new people... 😮 Welcome! 👋
If you need help with using Mastodon and the Fediverse, have a look at:
It's written for a non-technical audience, and hopefully answers most beginners' questions.
If you're looking for accounts to follow, there are lots of ways to do it summarised here:
If you have any problems, ask me and I'll try to help!
Yeah, there are many ways of approaching this!
Do you know the person? Is it possible to ask them for their account address?
The address will have two parts, and looks a lot like an email address, but it is actually their account address on here. You can use this to make their profile appear on your server, where you can click "follow".
I've done an article about this method here:
Are you using an app or your server's website to change your language settings?
There are three language settings to adjust.
One of them is the interface language which is at the top of the settings page. That changes the language used on the interface itself.
The other two are buried a bit deeper, if you go to Preferences > Other (on the desktop web at the left of the screen, on the mobile web at ☰)
In the Other section, choose English from the "posting language" menu, then tick the English box in the "filter languages" section. Then click "save changes".
