And when you start peeping, people take notice. 😉

Soon I got my first Follow Request notification in my Friendica account.

After posting an image in Mastodon network, it showed up on my Friendica new posts really soon.

From there, a reply was quickly posted, which also quickly shows back in masto universe.

The inter-connectivity between fediverse networks is still amazing to me, newbie that I am.

I just used a Search on my Friendica account. Searching for users in other networks is fully supported. So:

@joe@instance.name will pull the profile link to an existing user, and you have the option of Following them.

Send a request in, and soon connection happens.

In this case, /me being followed by alter-me. 😜

@Erenbulbul That is very interesting. Great photos too.

Welcome to Qoto, Eren! 😉

From a Mastodon net post, found on Friendica.

@freemo ...dinner here, although process wasn't started yet.

@iamo

Just found a post by a system administrator with comparisons between Friendica, Mastodon and Hubzilla.

Interesting read, heading there now.

You can also browse the Global feed, Like posts there, Comment. Or even Follow the post's author.

And discovering new posts, you might also discover new networks - like Diaspora, which this user posted from.

Now -- What's Diaspora ?

Nice relaxing moment by the river.

And once the post is SHARED (posted), it gets added to the list of all post in your User Profile.

Once you have uploaded images, you can select any of them in teh Browser tab.

That will place link text into the post editor box -- at the location you were currently typing. So place your cursor in the right place, before clicking on the image.

A Preview of the post, this one already using most of the Text Formatting options and an inserted Image follows.

You can upload images similarly; thru the Browser (which means, look at my resouces) tab. Click on Image (little landscape icon).

It will show any images you already have.

- Either on your Profile itself (avatars).
- Or in your Timeline posts.

There's an UPLOAD button, you use it to add new images to your account.

Later, any of those can be selected and entered into posts.

Here's my finished message with two files attached.

You can see a preview by hovering the mouse over the icons; the preview shows the Filename and size too.

Uploading and attaching files is also possible, and easy too.

It can be done via the post editor.

- Click on the last tab on the right.
- select files via the highlighted button on my image.
-click on Upload and you can select the files you want.

Later, these files will be available to be attached to any message you write.

While in the text editor, you can easily clink on the Tabs at the top of the editor to:

- Set or Change permissions.

- Get a Preview of what your post will look like!

I am really liking this - text formatting even done lightly can really emphasize words or meaning.

While in Mastodon instance posts we don't have ANY option of text formatting, here in Friendica, the post editor already hints it's different -- just look at the Bold[, Italic, Underline buttons below! :)

Aha! And the formatting is done using the super easy BBCode, which anyone who spent time in Forums will instantly feel familiar with.

Nice!

@Sphinx It could be that they want to make sure they are covered, and called the insurance agent to ask for reassurance.

If you would only drive the vehicle very rarely, I imagine you would not need to be added. We have kids, and they have licenses, but were away in Uni, so we never added them into our policy.

The neighbour wants to make sure they don't end up being responsible for damages; not only to their vehicle, but specially in case of an accident with people getting hurt.

In some countries, there's a whole industry of exploring legal claims from accidents.
