Question from this please
I've seen on a few that 'posts are deleted after 3 months' or similar.
Is this considered good practice for reasons of server space?

How many times throughout a meal is it polite to clean one's moustache? I think once per course is a good balance between looking presentable and having to stop your meal every sip of soup.

Also I know I am the one at fault but the difference in prices is huge and I still plan to return the original book. I know the fault is on me because I should have given her back when I noticed I wasn't reading anymore (even though I love it!) but I just... Forgot. But I don't want to make any inappropriate moves.

Reply vs Reply all .

Here on what’s the for replying to a post when there are multiple people tagged?

1) reply only to one person & delete all besides the recipient

2) reply some (look at conversation and address only to ppl for whom your reply is relevant)

3) go ahead and reply all

4) it depends

Awkward question (don't murder me): the family is celebrating a birthday, and many of the guests are vegetarian, so they decided on an Indian restaurant. The boyfriend of one of the guests is of Indian ancestry, and we're all white. Would this at all be awkward or insensitive? I feel like this might put him in an awkward position.

My parents are latched on to the idea of Indian cuisine because it's vegetarian friendly.

Please boost, I need some input quickly.

I have an urge to favorite ⭐ replies I get to a post to let people know that I read the reply and appreciate it, even if I don't have anything to add myself. Is this necessary? Will people just assume that I read it, or will they think I'm ignoring them?

@claesdevreese Thanks Claes!

I have an relating to this. Is it also 🀩/πŸ₯³/πŸ€“ to boost your own posts for the same reason or would this be considered πŸ˜’/😩/🀬 ?

Thing is I have seen you do it *several times* since I am here (two days) πŸ‘€

Etiquette question: If you are going to include profanity in a toot, should you use a CW?

What's the etiquette around here for posting videos? Is it a straight "front, it takes up too much space" or are there contexts when a short video is ok ?

Question for the long timers around here. What's a good balance between boosts and original toots? I sometimes don't have a lot to say but get on a steak of thinking lots of posts are boost-worthy.

When replying to a thread started by someone else, is it preferable to reply publicly, reply unlisted and boost the original toot, or reply publicly and boost?

A friend has invited me to join on another server. I have already joined on another server. What is the etiquette? Can one join more than one server?
