   A big welcome to everyone new to #Mastodon! 👋

   You’re going to like it here.

   Unlike #Twitter, this place isn’t set up as a race for RTs & likes & feels more like an ongoing conversation. Engagement is high & on the whole, there’s less outrage & more thoughtful content. I’ve been enjoying the chance to get to meet interesting new folks.

   Tip: Start with an #introduction & share your interests. @feditips is a helpful follow to get oriented too.

     @Sheril @feditips Thank you for the warm welcoming 😭💖

     Although I know almost nothing about this social media, first impressions it's unbelievably comfy here, I have no idea why I didn't registered here before...

     Here's couple pictures I took, I'm a hobby photographer :patcat:

     @CtrlAlt @Sheril

     Yes it is, try using the third party app Tusky, it's a lot better than the official app and includes support for following hashtags.

     The official Android app is missing a lot of features, Tusky has been around a lot longer and has more options.

     The way this place is structured, if one server starts doing something awful the other servers can just block it.

     This has happened before when a nazi server tried to join the Fediverse, most other servers blocked it and the nazis ended up just talking to themselves.

     @Sheril @feditips idk anything about ongoing coversation. Most of the tweets ion Federated or Explore are about Elon Musk and Twitter. It all looks like a silly anti-fan club (aka hate club) that is almost impossible to use (I've been here for 9 months and I still have no idea how to search for people I'd like to read)

     @Sheril @feditips thank you! I’m new and navigating this. I really REALLY don’t want to go back to Twitter so I hope I want to get rolling here. I had to search “what is the Fediverse” last night. 😳
