The latest Mastodon update lets you follow hashtags. When you follow, posts with a tag appear in your timeline automatically.
Try following #Gardening to make posts about gardening appear in your timeline.
This can be REALLY useful for discovering interesting accounts.
To follow a hashtag:
1. Log in through your server's website
2. Search for hashtag
3. Click it to see its results
4. Click on 👤+ icon in top right (click again to unfollow)
Posts from followed tags are visible in the apps too.
My #introduction has to being with the fact that I’ve been in security since 1997. I’m on the marketing side, but that shouldn’t dissuade you…you don’t do this job for this long without understanding how to do it right in this community.
Lots of my former and current colleagues encouraged me to make my way over here and to be honest I’m just trying to figure it all out. Really focused on #mastadontips, figuring out how to build #lists and getting #filters to work.
let’s see how this all goes!
