Today, a very niche tip for RSS fans
As well as Mastodon's built-in hashtag following system, you can also follow hashtags through RSS instead:
1. Search for a hashtag on a Mastodon server's website
2. Add .rss to the end of the URL
3. Use this URL as the feed address for that tag
For example to subscribe to #Dogs on mstdn.social you would use this address in your feed reader:

3. Check your Local timeline 🏡
This is a timeline with everyone on your instance (server). On desktop, you can browse it clicking on the “Live feeds” section on the right side menu, and browse the “This server” tab.
4. Check the Federated timeline
This is a timeline with everyone that someone on your instance follows. On desktop, you can browse it clicking on the “Live feeds” section on the right side menu, and browse the “All” tab.
5. From these 2 timelines, follow more people!
6. You might find too many toots (posts) are posted for you to keep track on there. To solve this, it is a good idea to activate “Slow Mode". On desktop, go to Preferences > Appearance and in the “Animations and Accessibility” section unable the option “Slow mode” 😌
7. Magic! ✨

I wanted to breed for a Shiny Fennekin the other night in #PokemonScarlet but HOME was under maintenance and I didn’t want to manually release a few boxes to make room.
Decided to just run around Paldea, no sandwiches (but with Shiny Charm) just to see what showed up. Actually found quite a few random #ShinyPokemon!
Shiny Rookidee, Sneasel, Zweilous (like my 8th…), and Chansey. All in like an hour lol.
