A little known feature of #Mastodon is the ability to create your own personal notes about an account. This is a great way to potentially remind yourself why you follow particular accounts (or just about any other reason you can think of). Also, these notes are private. The account does not know what you have written down, nor the fact that you have even made these notes. Please #boost to help spread the knowledge around your networks. ☺️ #MastodonTips #Feditips #Notes https://youtu.be/npoBM9Ev2CQ

Following on from this Initial Mastodon Guide, I have been seeing a lot of people asking for tips on how to find people and content to fill in their Home Timeline. I decided to make a follow up video on how to best use search and also cover why sometimes you don't get the results you expect. https://youtu.be/9cIbSPPszIE Any boosts will be appreciated to help others improve their Mastodon experience. #TwitterExodus #TwitterMigration #Search #feditips

OK, well this is getting far more interesting for me! 😎 Given the open nature of the #ActivityPub protocol, it is possible to pull in the Instagram alternative, Pixelfed, into your Mastodon Home Timeline. This is great for those looking for an alternative to Instagram, but not wanting to use yet another app. Here is another short video on how this works and how you can use it yourself! #twittermigration #twitterexodus #Instagram #Pixelfed #feditips https://youtu.be/iPq-NqtTEqU

Seeing a little too much #Caturday in your feed? Want to hide #spoilers for a TV Show until you see the episode? #Filters are easy to set up and customise on #Mastodon. This short video walks through how to use them step by step to make it as easy as possible for you to manage your feeds. As always, thanks in advance for the boosts, and a sub to my channel would mean a lot, I am aiming for 1000 subs. 😜👍 #twittermigration #twitterexodus #Youtube #feditips https://youtu.be/2yt5JvFoGrw

I shared a video earlier in this thread about how to #migrate your account to another server and ensure your followers come along for the ride, but how do you move other data such as the people you #follow, #mute or #block? This video walks through this process step by step to make it as seamless for you as possible. Yet again, thanks for the #boost and extra thanks to those that subbed to my channel. :success:https://youtu.be/bjzetO-zl3Q #twittermigration #MastodonTips #Feditips #youtube

Direct Messages on Mastodon are probably one of the most confusing things for new users as they aren't really like messages on other platforms. I have done my best to explain what they are in a few minutes for you all here. Check it out and let me know if it helps. More tips still to come so stay tuned. Please give it a #boost if you can to help spread the knowledge around the Fediverse. :ablobcatrave:https://youtu.be/XWiaQAmHvys #FediTips #twittermigration #youtube #DirectMessages #DMs

Yet another short video to add to the list of guides. This one covers how to make use of the Advanced Web Interface to really tailor your web experience for #Mastodon. For those that are used to things like #tweetdeck or the app #tweeten on Windows, this will be very familiar to you. And best of all, it is built right into Mastodon natively. As always, boosts are appreciated to get the message out to all the newcomers. #NewHere #MastodonTips #FediTips https://youtu.be/I4l9FjzGywc

I love seeing all the new members joining the platform, but this does mean that with more people, you may feel the need to #mute or #block an account on #Mastodon. That is fine, your experience on this platform should be dictated by you and you alone. So, I made this short guide to help you better navigate how to use this feature.

Another day, another video. A lot of us already have a large #Twitter #Network and would love to be able to easily search #Mastodon for them to fill out our network here. The #Fedifinder site helps make this a reality and it recently got some updates. This video walks through the steps to #Migrate your network across in minutes. As always, any #boost are appreciated to spread the word... And a sub would be lovely. 😜 #twittermigration #twitterexodus #youtube #feditips https://youtu.be/37S246Wr_JE

This seems to be becoming a habit of mine now as I begin to use Mastodon more and continue to learn more about it each day. This one covers the options available to you when posting content such as Alt Text and Content Warnings but also talks about language settings and using filters to tidy up your timelines. Any boosts will be greatly appreciated so we can help everyone get the most out of Mastodon. #twittermigration #MastodonTips #accessibility #language #feditips https://youtu.be/Pg0rtrUOoJY

Is there a handful of #Hashtags that you like to post about? Do you want people to be able to easily see your posts about these when they look at your profile? Then #FeaturedHashtags are the thing to use instead of just posting them in your #bio. This allows people visiting your profile to filter your posts for specific tags. Great for getting to know you better before following you. https://youtu.be/TQA0o_qntQk Please #Boost and sub if you can. :ablobcatcoffee: #MastodonTips #FediTips #NewHere

I still haven't run out of tips to share... :ablobcatcoffee: Lists are a feature many are used to from the Bird Site, but they function differently here. They are a great tool for you to make your own custom timelines. Check out this short guide video on what lists are as well as how to set them up for yourself.

Do you love Keyboard Shortcuts? Do you have an impairment that makes using a mouse difficult? Yes to either one? Mastodon's Web Interface features a wide array of #shortcuts that can be used to navigate the interface and make posts etc. This short guide video walks through a selection of these to show you how easy they are to use.

When should I #boost? When should I #favourite? How do I save a post? How do any of these features work. #Mastodon is different to other platforms in that there is no algorithm or analytics. Getting the most likes on a post means little here. I made another short video that covers how these features work as well as when you should use each one. Please #boost to help spread the knowledge and a sub to the #YouTube channel would be welcome. 😁👍 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBs_Mi5_DVs #FediTips #MastodonTips

Just loaded up someone's #profile (or your own) and only want to see their posts that contain a particular #hashtag? There is no UI to be able to do this, but it is possible with a small modification to the URL you visit. In the URL, add a slash, the word 'tagged', another slash, and then the hashtag you wish to see. e.g. /tagged/hashtag https://youtu.be/hv7B7m4gd5I Please #Boost and #subscribe to the #YouTube channel for more. :ablobcatcoffee: #MastodonTips #FediTips #NewHere

Tried following someone on their profile only to be asked to sign in? Confusing, yeah? The Graze for Mastodon extension by @jaredzimmerman helps negate this and allows you to interact with users, even on their own instances.

I honestly do not think I have ever seen an app get updated as frequently as #Fedilab does. @apps@toot.fedilab.app

New features and improvements are being added multiple times a week.

Today they added support for #Maths formula, with correct formatting etc in both viewing and composing.

This app is amazing and is available for free via F-Droid or on the Play Store for a couple of bucks.

Need to set up #Scheduled posts for a business account or just want to post something later? #Mastodon doesn’t support this natively, but you can use a website and a #Development App to create a scheduler for yourself. My short video shows how to do this in a step-by-step way to make it easy for you to follow along on your own device. Please #boost to help spread the knowledge and a sub to the #YouTube channel would be welcome. #MastodonTips #FediTips #ScheduledPosts https://youtu.be/4nMDN9PSvSA

@TDonoval@mastodon.sk
I don't see an option to remove those you follow from the Federated Timeline, but you can at least enable the Remote Only option that would remove those on your Local Timeline from it.

I had to do this since I have both the Local and Fed Timelines pinned and was annoyed seeing posts in both.

@tekkie@mstdn.social @ProtonCalendar@mastodon.social I love the design of their apps, but unfortunately, by not allowing me to use accounts from other providers in their apps, they lost my business.

I have multiple email accounts, and I am not going to use multiple apps just to be able to check my email.

I have actually made a couple of short videos that can guide you through this process.
One for how to copy over any block lists etc you might have and the other on how to perform the actual migration itself.

What others have said about not being able to move old posts is correct, but those posts will still exist in their current account.

@ringwoodunitarians@c.im There's nowhere currently in the Web UI to see a list of your Followed Hashtags (it is still being coded at the moment).

I also do not believe you can add hashtags to a list at the moment.

With those things being said, many of the better mobile apps have ways for you to see these things.
Fedilab on Android is the most full featured app, and it has an easy to access menu option for them.

@timelordiroh@fandom.garden There sure is! You can very easily set up a filter in a matter of minutes.
You can also set filters to be timed, for instance you want to avoid movie spoilers for the first week or something.

Here is a super quick video guide on how to set them up:

@darthdzl@mastodon.world I'm not sure if it really solves your problem, but there is a way in the Settings for Mastodon for you to see which accounts you follow are active or dormant.

You can even use this to bulk unfollow accounts if you want to.

I'm not sure if this meets your request, but it is a useful way to see who posts the most among your follows too.

You can also use this page to find which accounts are mutuals as well if that interests you. 😁

@tekkie@mstdn.social That is completely fine too. I appreciate their efforts and I would happily pay for the service.
Unfortunately, I also have my own personal domain and email service that I need to be able to use as well and despite how sleek and well designedthe Proton app is, I should still be able to use it to view my content hosted elsewhere.

I can do this on basically every other email application, so why not here.

@gotofritz@fosstodon.org Yeah. I still see the odd "These 5 phrases are things you should never say to your boss (in a picture format)" posts.
But overall, it's not a bad site anymore and hasn't been for some time.
