Friends of #BSDCafe and the #Fediverse,
here are some tips for those coming from other social platforms or who are new to the Fediverse:
* No algorithms here, it's all about boosts. Boosting guarantees maximum reach for a post and increases the chances of it being seen by as many people as possible. Favouriting, on the other hand, is a direct way to say thanks to the person who posted without giving any visibility advantage. In simple terms, boost means "Hey, everyone, check this out!" and favourite is a soft-spoken "Thank you!" to the content creator.
* Make good use of hashtags: they are the primary way users in the Fediverse discover content. When you post, for example, about #FreeBSD, using the relevant hashtag will give you the best chance to be "discovered" by more people. Many software platforms (like Mastodon, but not only) also allow following hashtags, and many users do so.
* There are hashtags for specific days/events. For instance, many share cat photos on Saturdays using the hashtag "Caturday". By following that hashtag, you'll see all the cat photos known to the server and posted with that hashtag.
* Interact! The best way to gain visibility and social connections is through interaction. No algorithm will promote you if you don't engage and post.

#permacultureRules in a federated #fediVerse
If it is necessary to understand and identify how the resilient system mother earth created for us works, could it be reasonable to consider to create at least two profiles on two different nodes out of a permaculture principal?
What do you think great @gretathunberg owner of the renown world wide championship heavy holder of the #gretaEffect?
