stevE 🌼Mastodon Tip #1:Hashtags are great to find, follow and filter topics.Place them at the very end of your toot, so your helpful list can automatically shorten in timelines by apps like Tusky. So nobody has to complain about to many of them... 😉<a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/hashtag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hashtag</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/hashtags" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hashtags</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/hashtagspam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hashtagspam</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/mastodontip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodontip</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/MastodonTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTips</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodon</a> <a href="https://freiburg.social/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediverse</a>

Vox and the Pack :Fire_Enby:I just learned that followers-only posts are truly only visible to your followers, even if someone visits your profile. Unless they're a follower they cannot see them.That opens up a whole new avenue of safety. We might experiment with more private thoughts through our followers-only posts.I just thought it could be useful information for other people. Boosts are okay.<a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/tips4mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tips4mastodon</a>

JL Johnson :veri_mast:<a href="https://vmst.io/tags/FediTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediTip</a>. Follow lots of people who post cool stuff. **BUT ALSO** create a "Read First" list and add any IRL or special accounts whose stuff you don't want to miss. Keep it short, and rotate folks in, or out. Then when you pop on, start there and eventually make it to your regular timeline. There's no algorithm, make your own! <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/LifeHack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LifeHack</a>

poweredbylemonx | 🌈🍋⚡️Thinking of migrating to a new server, anyone have a recommend?Looking for a server w/ about 300-1000 active users, friendly to LGBTQ folks, more of a general server vs something really specific. It's a bonus if folks talk about media, games, making things, some silliness, some politics. I think I'm looking for something well managed, updated, and just a fun place to post, that is somewhat active as well.<a href="https://towns.gay/tags/mastodontip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodontip</a> <a href="https://towns.gay/tags/mastodonhelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodonhelp</a>

El Duvelle3 <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/MastodonTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTips</a> that I find useful:1.When you follow a new account, activate the notifications (🔔) icon next to the follow button. That way their posts won't get lost in the Big Timeline and you can get an idea of whether you want to keep following them on the long term. 2.If someone boosts too much for you, but you still want to see their original posts in your timeline, you can deactivate their boosts (in the options for their profile: ...> Hide boosts). (Unfortunately this doesn't hide boosts in their profile, which would be great to have as an option)3.If your posts don't get boosted as much as you'd like, it could be that they don't have AltText! You can set a reminder for adding it in the "Compose box" options (the two ⚙️ ): tick "Show confirmation dialog before sending toots lacking media descriptions"Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions!<a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a>

xyhhx :PunkFelix:ayo alt text/captions are important so that blind people can enjoy the pictures you post. accessibility is cool!<a href="https://botsin.space/@PleaseCaption" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@PleaseCaption</a> will remind you when you forget to write alt text. it's a bit easier to receive than strangers giving you shit imo<a href="https://438punk.house/tags/fediTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediTip</a> <a href="https://438punk.house/tags/fediTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fediTips</a> <a href="https://438punk.house/tags/mastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodonTip</a> <a href="https://438punk.house/tags/mastodonTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodonTips</a> <a href="https://438punk.house/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibility</a> <a href="https://438punk.house/tags/accessibilityTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibilityTip</a>

Tuckers Nuts Resist! 🇺🇦 🥥 Fediverse Engagement Tip Number 5: Post a really good, timeless, evergreen, helpful, encouraging toot in the "Favorites" section of your Mastodon instance. Chances are good that when people are checking YOU out to decide whether to follow YOU, they'll see your post and can boost or favorite it -- and thus, more people will see it. Check the appliance you're using for you account for exact details on how to do this. 🥥 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Engagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Engagement</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Evergreen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Evergreen</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a>, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/TuckersBalls" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TuckersBalls</a>

Kai Rüsberg :mastodon:Inzwischen gibt es so viele Medienseiten auf Mastodon, dass sie mir die Timeline verstopfen und ich private Postings nicht mehr finde. Die Listen schaffen Abhilfe: kennt ihr schon diesen praktischen <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a>?

WraitheMostly just posting this so I have a list of useful Social Web tools saved. 😂Bluesky threadroll: <a href="https://blue.mackuba.eu/skythread/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blue.mackuba.eu/skythread/</a>Twitter Threadroll: <a href="https://threadreaderapp.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://threadreaderapp.com/</a>Mastodon Threadroll: <a href="https://mastoreader.io" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mastoreader.io</a>Threads: 🤷🏻‍♀️(OTOH I haven’t seen much useful/interesting posted from Threads mostly. 😂) <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FediTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediTips</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a>

WraitheOne super minor <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FediTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediTips</a>: If you try and follow someone, and it’s an account that requires the person to approve your follow request?Use the private “notes” that you can put on their profile to note that you requested to follow them on X date , if they don’t approve it, you won’t accidentally request again and potentially annoy them! (Since there’s no notification when someone denies your follow request)I say this as someone who’s completely spaces whether I’ve requested 😂

El DuvelleA little <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a>: When you look at a post, you might not see all its answers / boosts / favs When you look at a profile, you might not see all of its postsOne way to see everything is to click on the post or profile settings and then “see original page” (I think).

Mark A. ⏏️ {FalconMarkSix}INFO for those that have set up filters in Mastodon:Just a reminder that the "Whole word" option (seen in the screenshot below) when setting up your filters is useful to pay attention to. The "Whole word" option is basically if you want a keyword/phrase to be filtered exactly or not.For example, if you input the word "swim" with a checkmark ☑️ it will only filter out:<ul><li>swim</li><li><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/swim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#swim</a></li></ul>However, if the box is blank ⬜ it will filter out "swim", as well as the words:<ul><li>swim</li><li><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/swim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#swim</a></li><li>swimmer</li><li><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/swimmer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#swimmer</a></li><li>outswim</li><li><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/outswim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outswim</a></li><li>etc....</li></ul>This is why some filter lists may be long and not as efficient. You might need to tweak these boxes if the root keyword/phrase you input has a lot of prefixes/suffixes/variations.If you are unsure whether a box should remain checked or unchecked, it's best to leave it checked so it doesn't filter out unintended terms.<a href="https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/moderating/#filters" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Here's more info and instructions for creating Mastodon filters</a><a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonSettings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonSettings</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonFilter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonFilter</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonFilters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonFilters</a>

Mark A. ⏏️ {FalconMarkSix}Just a quick reminder that on Mastodon each URL (website link) is supposed to count as 23 characters regardless of length. However, not all Mastodon clients are aware of this.So if you're running out of space while writing a toot and you've included a website link, make sure your Mastodon client isn't over-counting any website links. Otherwise, it's best to write your toot on your instance's website. :blobfoxcomputer:<a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTip</a> <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/MastodonTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MastodonTips</a>
