Extremely disappointed in NPR Weekend Edition Sunday reporting on new Threads app. It was a gushing advertisement for the latest corporate grab to control the Internet which totally ignored critical privacy issues. And on top of that, they didn’t even mention Mastodon which is now 13 million users strong!

Tiny Mastodon Newbie Profile Page Tips 🐘✨:

About your profile page 👤

If you just arrived here,
before following lots of people, it’s a good idea to complete your profile page.

This will increase the chances of people following you back and finding your profile.

1. Write about who you are and/or what you like in your profile bio (you can use hashtags there so people can find you). It’s okay if it’s short, but write something 📝

2. Personalize your profile picture with something you like. Don’t just let the Mastodon default, it makes you look like an anonymous bot. And you are not a bot! (unless you are) 🤖

3. You can write an introduction about yourself in a toot (post) and use the hashtag “# introduction” (minus the space). You can pin this toot to your profile page so that it stays at the top. You don’t have to write it right away, but it can help people finding you and deciding to follow you #️⃣

4. Post or boost a few toots that you like, so that your profile timeline isn’t completely empty  

5. Then, when your profile looks like a page that represents you, follow the people that interest you. Interact with them. Be kind 💚 Make friends!  

6. Magic!✨
