   🎉 Welcome to newcomers! 🎉

   A few personal tips:

   👌 the Fediverse is NOT twitt*r! enjoy a more relaxed, courteous, benevolent way of interacting! you are part of it!

   🤚 introduce yourself! also fill bio and post a couple "toots" before following people to have more chance they'll follow back..

   👍 favourite and follow generously! This is how to create link around. No algorithm-god is spying on you, telling you who to follow, what to read! \o/

   ⚠️ many people care about CW... learn about that

   💗

     Also:

     🧐 Experiment with different accounts on different instances (sites like https://instances.social/list can help you). Every instance has different feel, vibe and community (and rules). Find one that you prefer or use mutliple accounts/personas/instances.

     🏷️ Use plenty of #Hashtags as it is the only way to actually search through the #Fediverse...

     ❓ Ask around! Many people will be pleased to guide you.. There is no stupid question :)

     💖 Be part of making the Fediverse better and more welcoming!

     also:

     Each message ("toot") can be shared (select with icon under editor) with either:
     🌍 the whole world
     🔓 the whole world, but be not further listed in your timeline
     🔒 only followers
     ✉️ only some people (ie. private message)

     Different timelines (icons on top left of default interface), to see more messages/people to follow:
     🏠 "home" shows everyone you follow
     👥 "local" is everyone on your instance
     🌍 "federated" is local+everybody followed by someone in your instance

     🚫 Some instances have moderation and content filtering/blocking policies: admin(s) decide for everyone to block content (whole instances, people, or keywords). Choices can be discussed/made transparent.

     Some find this makes them feel safer 🤗

     ⚙️ One can filter themselves ("filters" in settings ⚙️ menu), and decide, without having to disclose it, a list of keywords to remove from their timelines.

     ✋ One can mute or block people.

     Some find this empowers them and give them more autonomy 💪
