My mum wants to join the #Fediverse - as she's fed up with adverts in other social media - and I have no idea what server would be best for her.

She's in her seventies, likes gardening, outdoors, cats and dogs, travel, books..

Any suggestions?

@AdamBishop some friends are over on cupoftea.social which may be a nice fit? 😊 No idea if it will appeal to her... Just the first one that came to mind.
The beige one I am on is fantastic as well, but we may be a cult... πŸ˜‡ We do get a great admin who provides us with many chars... πŸ˜‰
@PixysJourney πŸ˜„ Ooo, thank you, I'll check them out πŸ™

@AdamBishop you're very welcome! Beige may not be a right fit, or maybe she's as "nutty" as we are and would love to join the "not a cult". πŸ˜‰ But seeing my friends on cupoftea.social made me think that could be a nice fit. 😊

Edit: saw a typo

@PixysJourney "Not a cult" LOL πŸ˜…
@AdamBishop nope. Definitely not! We deny all rumors... πŸ˜‡
@PixysJourney @AdamBishop I really should know better, but after a year+ I can’t figure it out. Is there a way I can see a timeline or feed of ONLY the accounts I follow ? Is there a particular app that allows this?
@Millicent @AdamBishop I use Tusky and the home time line gives me all the toots and boosts of the accounts that I follow. I can switch to the instance TL or the federated TL to see the rest.
Tusky is for android, so if you're on iOS, I think Mona is a good one? But I don't know if that is a free to use app.
But as far as I know, if you follow people, the home TL should be their toots and boosts. 😊 Hope this helps.
