I have been fooling around with and tooting & tweeting to test the SW.

You can so that the test toots don't mess with other user's feeds by having the posts set to be direct messages to no-one on the Mastodon side. You get to see if it is working without bothering anyone.

If you are recently from the , as I am, it takes awhile to realize you are not shouting into the void here but in conference with others.

And ofc it is also good general to toot tweets as toots rather than most of the time.

@EubieDrew Thanks for this! I've been eating up posts like this one trying to get an idea of the culture on the platform. If you don't mind me asking, what is an unlisted toot and how is that accomplished?

Perhaps this screen cap will help. It might look different if you are using an app.
