so, friends, can you see who's on a federated instance (am i using that correctly?) without joining that server? like if i see that a bunch of people i interacted with elsewhere are on one server, but i'm happy with the server i'm on, can i poke around on that other server to follow several people at once?
gah, i'm not phrasing this very well.
So I guess it wasn't a hoax.
GOP operative Jesse Benton found guilty of funneling Russian money to Donald Trump's campaign.

(I was being sarcastic. I already knew it wasn't a hoax)
Maybe you saw the news today that a Twitter engineer got fired by Elon, over Twitter.
I talked to him.
Hours have gone by and he's still had no messaging from the company.
He doesn't even know where to send his company laptop.

Do you follow too many people?
Do you want to organise your Mastodon home timeline into several themed mini-timelines that are easier to navigate?
You can do this on Mastodon using the "Lists" feature, and here's a guide all about it:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-mastodon-and-the-fediverse-advanced-tips/#UsingListsOnMastodon
You can use Lists on third party apps like Tusky for Android or Metatext for iPhone/iPad, or on your server's website.
