A big welcome to everyone new to #Mastodon! 👋

You’re going to like it here.

Unlike #Twitter, this place isn’t set up as a race for RTs & likes & feels more like an ongoing conversation. Engagement is high & on the whole, there’s less outrage & more thoughtful content. I’ve been enjoying the chance to get to meet interesting new folks.

Tip: Start with an #introduction & share your interests. @feditips is a helpful follow to get oriented too.

@Sheril @feditips Hello. I am on Android and I can't find a way how to follow #hashtags . Is this possible on Android device?

Yes it is, try using the third party app Tusky, it's a lot better than the official app and includes support for following hashtags.

The official Android app is missing a lot of features, Tusky has been around a lot longer and has more options.

Third party apps on here are generally better.

@CtrlAlt @feditips the megalodon android app also allows to follow hashtags, plus the ability to schedule posts and save drafts.

BTW, do you know what is the proper place for feature requests? Is there an "official" Mastodon / Calckey repository that all the forks can pull from?
