KEEP IN MIND! #Mastodon doesn't work like #Twitter!
Have you just made the #Twexit or the #TwitterMigration?
Favorites ⭐ - they're not "likes". They don't "elevate" posts, they just the poster know you liked their post.
Boosts 🔁 - these push someone's post into your friends feeds (and help discovery).
So if you ⭐ my posts, that's great (and I love you too)!
But if you 🔁 posts, then more people see them!
OH! - #Hashtags are how you search!

❌ No dedicated bus lanes
❌ No space to safely bike
❌ No spots to safely cross between signals (1 signal added)
❌ A corridor that still doesn't have an accessible sidewalk
✅ A center turn lane

Hot take and first playful sub-toot: let's never end the friendly icebreaker/orientation environment here! People who have been using the app forever, I apologize that it might be frustrating to deal with all of us newbies tooting all about how it works/doesn't work as we feel it out and learn! I appreciate so much how no one has deliberately tried to make me feel unwelcome here yet. It can't last forever but let's hold on as long as we can.
