Bought some Italian butter cookies this morning. Asked for an assortment.

Clerk: Any allergies?

Clerk nods and made a show of putting back one of the cookies.

Mastodon #ProTip: If you haven’t yet, log into your account on the web & set up a few featured hashtags.

Featured hashtags let visitors to your profile quickly know what interests you & are different than just putting tags in your main bio decription. When tapped they search specifically *on your timeline* to reveal the topics you are interested in and post often about.

They display in clients like @ivory & are a way to quickly access posts for easy threading too. 👍
