If you've recently joined the fediverse, and are maybe on a smaller server, things might feel a bit isolated.
Fediverse does require a bit more effort compared to traditional social media. This is where the community has really stepped in and created some great tools, like these bots that share […]
This is an open-letter to pretty much everyone on the #Fediverse.
**Do not report content that you simply don't like.**
That is abusing the content reporting system and wastes everyone's time.
It also results in me (as one of the admins) flagging your instance for us to basically reject any […]

Just found this out. May be different on mainline Mastodon.
If you are running Glitch-SOC and want to adjust your max character count on posts you can add MAX_TOOT_CHARS= to your .env.production file and it will apparently control the max character count that way without the […]
I don't know if this is how things work for other Fediverse apps, but on Mastodon, if you reply to someone's post and remove their tag in your reply they won't be notified about the reply so there's a good chance they won't see it.
Therefore, if you're trying to have a conversation with somebody […]
I created a Mastodon "how to" page on our family Wordpress site: https://txcolliers.net/wordpress/mastodon-feed/ It's targeted toward our family and friends who may or may not have heard of Mastodon, but don't have any idea of how to get started. (And it was an opportunity to learn how to embed […]

Screenshot of html including the code that's supposed to verify a mastodon profile's external website.
For those of you who understand how Website verification in Mastodon works, can you look at this and tell me why it's not working? I keep expecting a checkmark to show up on my profile page, but one never does. Thanks!
@FediTips any ideas?

So - for the first time ever I'm logged out of my iPhone Mastodon app (Mastodon for iOs).
If I log in, it wants me to agree to give it blank check permssions over my account. I don't wanna, and the sudden change concerns me. It also says "This is a 3rd part application."
Was there some change […]
Is there a way to NOT be notified when a boosted/liked post is edited?

🦣 Mastodon Tip:
Replies aren’t tucked away like on other platforms—they’re full posts. Your comments can appear in timelines, get boosted, and be seen by people outside the thread.
Write replies like you're part of a public conversation—because you are.

Mastodon Tip:
Hashtags are great to find, follow and filter topics.
Place them at the very end of your toot, so your helpful list can automatically shorten in timelines by apps like Tusky.
So nobody has to complain about to many of them... 😉

Please, Mastodoners, for the sake of everyone, respect the platform and hashtag your posts. I am here specifically NOT to hear about #USPOL and it would be very kind of you to hashtag your posts so I don't have to. It goes for everything, but especially that. #MastodonTips #USpolitics
Screenshot showing a Mastodon "Filters" section and a large button saying "add new filter" There are two boxes below, one called "Donald Trump" and the other "Elon Musk". Trump is only filtering for the word "Trump." Musk is filtering for "Elon Musk", "QT @", and "Musk"
For those new to #Mastodon, once you have followed some people and hashtags that interest you, you may find it difficult to filter for quality. Here is what I use to ensure my time here is well spent #mastodontips #mastodonmigration
