Hello new people! 👋

If you need help getting started on Mastodon, have a look at:

➡️ fedi.tips

It's written in non-technical language, it's a beginner's guide.

If you can't find the answers you want on the site, @ me or message me.

@feditips

Is there a way to schedule posts? I do this a lot on my social media platforms, and I can't find any way to do it on Mastodon.

@feditips I can’t comment to people I’m following, one of my follow attempts is “pending”. I read your beginner instructions but I feel utterly lost

@feditips I can't believe I have to ask this, but where is the search on the mobile browser interface? Staring for 5 mins at my phone, what am I missing?

@feditips this looks really useful, the site looks so familiar but I am struggling with the change , maybe in twitter mourning 🥲whilst I adjust ! fundamentally agree with the principles expressed on here and not being hostages to the vanity of one man

As a true nube to this type of platform (no Twitter account ever) the tips and background info are super helpful, and thanks for not assuming everyone coming here has prior knowledge!

@feditips Hi ~ I just came aboard. Mastodon is a lovely concept. Here’s my first toot. I’m using the Mastodon for iPhone & iPad app & can’t see a way in settings or edit profile to upload a banner photo ?

@feditips I love the idea - but this is sooo cluttered, sorry. It's good as an FAQ but very intimidating as a beginners guide.

There should be 1 or 2 headlines and short paragraphs just explaining how to join and what to do, not hundreds of details.

I'd probably put "What is the Fediverse and how do I join it?" in big letters with a small paragraph right below as a first thing on the front page. And ideally not more than like 3 or 4 sentences to explain it.
