Gentle reminder to new friends here: many of us came here to escape the non-stop barrage of US politics on birdsite. It would be greatly appreciated if you used #masto's CW feature to hide uspol posts :)

Hey #Mastoadmins
Thank you for all of your hard work to keep us connected.

Remember, while Content Warnings are useful for collapsing a long message and saving space, they serve a vital service for members of our community who would be better served not seeing harmful or triggering stuff.

Always remember to CW any sensitive material you post.

AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST OF MASTO MEMES, USEFUL FOR NEWBIES:

* 🅱️read
* 🅱️oats
* IT'S 🅱️EEN (🅱️arenaked Ladies)
* 🅱️EGIN SUPERTHOUGHT
* Calling Gargron "🅱️argamel"
* Smashing that 🅱️oost 🅱️utton
* rotating coyote

And if you use your masto account to shelter a bunch of dwarves and a single hobbit in your burly burly arms, you can say you're getting Beorny on main.

"HAPPY TRANS AWARENESS WEEK," I yell over the fireworks I'm lighting in the shopping mall food court. The police sirens outside are drowned out as an errant Roman candle smashes into the Panda Express. I refuse to stop until everyone is aware of me

Berganza's gone!

this is something that happens when we have huge influxes like this, because we want new users to feel comfortable and have all the information about how to use the site

there's normally more interesting content! it's just getting swallowed up in the intros/how-to's because of the sheer number of people joining right now

stick around and/or come back in a few days and the timelines will look very different, i promise

Welcome to this NERD site, you NERDS.

replace all instances of the word 'post' in your life with 'toot'. for example. tootpunk. tootmodern. lamptoot. washington toot. first past the toot. la toote. deutsche toot. united states tootal service.

BTW to the new users who use Android phones: Twidere is an app that works with with Mastodon and Twitter and let's you post to both at the same time

Ah right since I deleted my .social account, some hashtags for folks to find me with! #trans #transgender #ftm #transman #bisexual #jewish #disabled
I'll add more to this as a thread as needed, I suppose. Feel free to add me and I'll follow back as I can! :3

New users! Be encouraged not to think of these as "trigger warnings" -- although they can serve that function -- the more general point is to give the person reading their TL power over what pops up in it. People also frequently tag politics, the news, low-level lewdness....etc. So I urge you to think of it as metadata and feel free to use it for whatever you like.
