Accepted the signup. ;)

You can set up your account at https://polymaths.social/settings/

There is no interactive web interface (other than the settings panel and profile/post pages), but any Mastodon client should work. If you're especially missing the Mastodon web interface, look into Mastodon-FE: https://masto-fe.iceshrimp.dev/

A few settings to note that are different defaults than Mastodon servers:

• Posts are unlisted by default
• By default, followers require approval. (When you migrate you might want to turn this setting off, at least temporarily, so you don't have to manually approve all migrated followers.)
• You can enable Markdown formatting for posts
• Char limit is 5,000, but I've set up the server to throw an error if you don't include alt text on your images.

Have fun and ask if you have questions!
