First Twee.. er.. Post. What is the proper Mastodon terminology?

@emewhort "Toot" They call them toots here....
I know, right?

@LanceMason @emewhort

yes, Toot it is, as in the sound of an elefant blowing thru it's trunk. If you think about it "tweeting" is just as silly a word, tweeting like little birds, are we? LOL.

Welcome, Eric! If you are new to using Mastodon, there's a good guide here: lifehacker.com/a-beginner-s-gu

We also have another new users guide, posted here : write.tedomum.net/rgx/suggesti

@design_RG @LanceMason Thanks, man. It seems pretty straight forward, I did like seeing the rules part against discrimination, though. Nobody needs to see that.

It´s a good thing to get familiar with the way things work here, in the Fediverse. It´s a Fedration of independant systems, each supporting itself and having discretion of setting their own preferred rules.

There are places with more strict rules, some with less, some which are hellholes we best keep distance from.

So it´s good to know. 😉

Any questions, just ask.
