Lots of people currently asking about how to search Mastodon, here's a guide all about it:

➡️ https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-search-for-stuff-on-mastodon

You can search for keywords, phrases, hashtags, emoji, and you can also refine your searching by using "operators". There are more details about all of these in the guide linked above.

If you want your own posts and profile to be more discoverable and searchable, here's a list of ways to do that:

@FediTips Are searches for instances using GoToSocial findable?

@TomasHradcky

Searches work for posts from any type of Fediverse instance.

@FediTips I must have not been clear. I’m looking to join an instance that runs on GoToSocial not Mastodon. I’m not sure how to find that.

Ahh okay!

This is a really good question as there isn't an instance index for GoToSocial at the moment.

I'll do a post about this later today as it's an important point.

@FediTips I want to translate the interesting posts I see in other languages or copy them to translate with the app I use.

@Quarky

If your server has a translation service installed, you should see a "translate" button below posts in other languages.

You might want to ask your server admin about this?

Not every server has this active because it costs extra to run. (The reason translation services are "free" on other platforms is they make money by selling your data etc.)
