@blissfulmun Hi there. Leaving your nest is common experience here , if you heard about reddit then #redditmigration#redditblackout then you can guess why I left there. To communicate you either need to have followers or good use of #. Search engine works only on # (not more than one) but you can add as many in post as you like. Share with people that joined with you so they don't feel screaming in void to ask help. Good luck exploring Mastodon!
