Ah, the Twitterpocalypse franchise has released another sequel.
Welcome to Mastodon / the Fediverse new peoples!
Alt Text on images are much appreciated, many of us won't boost posts without them, we like to make sure those who need them can enjoy content too.
Boosting posts helps a lot with how content discovery here works.
Hashtags are also very useful. Using them at the end of your post, instead of mixed in with the body of your text is the best way to use them, this makes it easier with assistive technologies such as screen readers.
People are friendly here, but no one wants to be harassed. If you disagree with someone over something, try to be kind about it.
There's no need to act like folks do on Bird Site. Most of us are here not because Twitter melted down today or last November, but because we genuinely appreciate many of the differences between the platforms and how we treat each other here.
Follow people, follow hashtags & ask questions if something is unclear. Enjoy the new adventure! ❤️
