For those followers that I do not follow back: in order to keep my timeline safe and interesting I only follow those that I find interesting to discuss with.

However, if you follow me but you don't have an #introduction or #bio full of #hashtags, I will not know what are your interests.

So, please, take some time to introduce yourself and write a bio so that I know who I am dealing with :)

@moofsoup @saintmartyn Actually I started learning with a course on Ableton. I only discovered #bitwig because I wanted to do music on my #linux laptop.

However, it ended being more than that, I fell in love with the software.

@saintmartyn 😍

@saintmartyn Thank you so much 🥰 your words encourage me.

I am using #bitwig, which is pretty similar to #ableton :)

For the new guys here, I can explain Mastodon.

Mastodon is a high school where the nerds, the sports guys, the mean girls, the popular students and the teachers are all speaking with each other.

The Federated timeline is like the cafeteria, where everyone talks together.

The Local timeline is the toilet rooms, where the members of a group talk to each other in the same group.

And the Fediverse is an ensemble of independently hosted servers that use web publishing protocols in order to communicate between each other by using decentralized methods of communication.

Easy to understand 🤷‍♂️

Wow, seems like a LOT of #gamedev people are coming to the #fediverse. Looks like the gamedev.place is kinda dying of success like .social.

Let's hope the infrastructure gets better soon!

@delunado Hello, welcome!

It can be hard to get used to Mastodon, so I really encourage you to explore a little bit more the #fediverse!

This network works really differently from Twitter or any social media. There is no algorithm whatsoever, so I recommend you to follow many interesting accounts in order to build your timeline o/

You can look for interesting people by searching for #hashtags, because you cannot search text in Mastodon. You can also check the "local timeline", which compiles all the toots of your instance (mastodon.gamedev.place). If you can deal with it, you can check the "Federated timeline", which compiles ALL the toots of all the networks (the whole network, actually).

There are many toots that explain this better that use the hashtag #twittermigration. There you can find many tips.

Do not hesitate (even, abuse!) following another people, as only toots and reposts will be seen in your timeline (nothing about "X liked" or "Y follows"...).

Hope it's not too much information :) Maybe you can work in an introduction and fill it with hashtags, so that people can find you! Check by example my own #introduction: https://qoto.org/@abde/109292877971637690
