#MastodonTips

When you boost it shares it to your feed and all your followers. Without an algorithm running, boost are what makes content spread and sorta “go viral”. A boost is pretty similar to a retweet in Twitter or share in fb.

The culture on mastodon is to be more generous with boosts, to help posts you like get to more folk.

Boost other new folks especially, help them find their people.

#MastodonTips

Make a post and tag it with a big popular tag, and you’ll find that the broader mastodon community is much more able to discover, find and will likley even comment on ur post.

If you’re a mastodon regular and you’re seeing this, we’d love you to weigh in with ur own tip for those that are brand new with like no followers and are working out what to do.

Some popular hashtags are the sorts of topics you’ll find at the library, things like:

Savez vous si il existe une application #android dans le #Fediverse pour #mastodon qui permet de voir le compte d'une personne même quand un filtre s'applique sur son pouet ?

Parce que ça m'arrive pas mal de fois de vouloir voir ce qu'en pense certains de mes abonnements ou exclure ce qui me vient par #hastag

Je peux le faire sur le web avec mon instance mais par exemple. Et aussi pouvoir replier le masque ... @FediTips
