I added a FAQ page: https://github.com/Gargron/mastodon/wiki/FAQ Let me know if you have any other questions?
@Gargron How about support for third party apps (desktop/mobile)? Are there any dedicated apps, or settings that can be used in well known apps?
@vonloghausen There's an API. I hope people will build apps for it and I'll gladly help with whatever I can do (but I personally can't write mobile apps)
@Gargron if I set up my own instance, will I be able to move my account there and keep followers, history, etc?
@dtsomp No, at least not currently.
@Gargron How many users are already on Mastodon?
@EvelineMeijer 8883 registered, 3130 who logged in in the last two weeks
@evelinemeijer you can also follow users of other Mastadon/GNUsocial instances, e.g. look at Quitter.se→WholeKnownNetwork
@Gargron as someone who isn't a programmer, I'm rather confused about how that username@domain stuff works. What's the domain? Do I need to know about it as someone who isn't a programmer?
