Important tip for new users:

Mastodon search doesn’t NOT search the text in posts. Hashtags are key to finding posts and topics that you want.

This means hash-tagging your posts will make them visible to the fediverse. Some members tag posts in the text of the post itself, and some include a hashtag block (like below). Either way, the use of hashtags will help your posts get noticed!

For those who like the #mastodon mobile browser interface, it’s EASY to pin to an #iPhone home screen as its own #app, making it quick to access.

Done!
