Purple Whale Tip 3 - Bonus: Helping Moots Find You!

Purple Whale Tip 3: Finding Moots

The best way to find moots to follow is to search on hashtags. Here in the Purple Fediverse, the best ones to use are #BTS, #BTSArmy and #FediArmy.

You should also use hashtags in your own posts, so people who are interested in what you're posting about can find you.

ProTip: It's really important to add some info in your Profile before you start following. Most users will be less likely to follow back if your profile is blank.

Purple Whale Tip 2: Image Descriptions Rule.

Not only do they improve accessibility for all users on Mastodon, they’re also fun to write!

Add a description (sometimes referred to as an alt-tag) to the media you are sharing next time you post!

Include some info about the content of the image (eg. Who, What, Where, Why) and a description of what's visible.

To add yours, when uploading an image or video, click on the 'edit' or 'caption' button to add your description.

Purple Whale Tip 1: Use Tags!

The algorithm isn’t here to create a timeline for you (like it does on the birdapp). But the cool thing about that is we get to create the purple feed together by using great #Hashtags.

Try adding these to you next post – #BTS #BTSArmy #KPop and #FediArmy and see if some new mootsies find you!

If we effectively we tag our posts, everyone can find and interact with each other more easily!

Purple Whale Tip 4: Try Out Some Apps!

Let's be honest, the default Mastodon app kind of sucks. But the great news is, there are lots of other options.

Check out the list here - https://joinmastodon.org/apps

Some of our favourites at Apobangpo include: Toot! & Ivory for iOS, Tusky & Fedilab for Android, and Elk for web.

Ask your moots what they use and do some testing!

To add the server on an app, you need to use our domain name - apobangpo . space (without the spaces!)

Tip 3: Wanna find moots? 💜 🐳

Check out the Profile Directory here: https://apobangpo.space/directory

OT7 Tip Number 5: Share your @

Your address on Mastodon is a bit more like an email address in its form. It includes your username and your instance name (server).

Eg. Mine is @PurpleWhale

Share your @ via other social media sites and with friends so you can find each other!

You can also share your Profile link which is https://apobangpo.space/@yourusername.

For example mine is https://apobangpo.space/@PurpleWhale

A Mastodon Tip for our newbies!

Tip 4: Wanna be found?
If you want to opt in to being easily discovered on the timeline and in the Profile Directory, go to your profile settings and make sure ‘Suggest account to others‘ is checked.

Using Hashtags (see Tip 1) will also help other users to discover you on the timeline.
