Just made a Mastodon account!

@jacadamia @pluralistic Welcome to Mastodon! It is a great place to be. I hope you enjoy it here!

Welcome. Here's the rules:

1. You can easily block people, just view their profile and click the hamburger menu on the right – use it freely and often

2. Following people is easy too, as is unfollowing them – do it freely and often

3. Most people start on mastodon.social, but you'll probably have a better time if you find a smaller instance full of people you like and switch to it

4. You must add alt-text to images

5. Actually, I'm lying – there are no rules

Hello and welcome!

This is the home of the creators, so I hope you'll feel good about this account and the fediverse.

Follow often, weed out later, create your bubble. Here, no algos will shove stuff in your face, it's really all humans.

Hello

A neat feature of mastodon is you can follow hashtags, and when just starting out this is good, because I don't think the "starter pack" feature for mastodon is done yet, so mastodon can feel kind of empty when first starting out, it takes a bit of effort to build up enough people to follow to have a good pile of stuff to read.

There's some anonymous helpful person who runs a bunch of fedi help accounts, and they periodically post interesting accounts to follow at @FediFollows
