If someone is asking for help with using this place, could you let them know about my account, and also let them know about my website? 🙂
I have a website full of easy-to-understand guides for using Mastodon and the wider Fediverse at:
The section at the top of the page marked "Quick Start" is especially designed for new people who want to find out the basics.
I'm an unofficial account, so new people only find out about me by worth of mouth. Thanks! 🙏
This is one of the easiest and most user friendly apps on the web. Its clean and dosent have a bunch of useless feeds and ad windows. If you can use Facebook or X, Mastodon is a breeze.
You do superb work. Keep it up, and bloody well done!
@FediTips this post prompted me to chase down a long held niggle: can you view the local timeline of other servers? Turn out the limitation is with my client Tusky. Subway Tooter works just fine https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-browse-the-local-timelines-of-other-servers-on-mastodon-can-i-follow-other-servers-local-timelines-from-my-account/
Wow wow wow wow.
Best thing ever. Awesome website.
Thank you very much.
Informative.
Very easy to read. Useful links. Well done.

Thank you! 😊 Let me know if you want help with anything specific!
@NicksWorld @FediTips This site is also clearly written with accessibility in mind, and for that I say thank you.
Thanks! I've had help with the site's accessibility from @WeirdWriter who also contributed to the section specifically about accessibility.
@FediTips @NicksWorld @WeirdWriter Thank you so much for wanting to do this.
I would like to say thank you for your work!
I was wondering what is the PixelFed, I've seen mentioned around a couple of times. And then I've seen somebody boosting this post, found your site.
And there - all the answers to exactly the questions I had!
This is immensely helpful to people just arriving here and dealing with the complex new world of Fediverse.
@FediTips Location, location, location! Please encourage ppl to at at least put their country in their bio. So much American centrism in this place.
@FediTips I've been doing so for over a year now & definitely will continue.
Thank you, greatly appreciated! 👏
@FediTips your service to fediverse is priceless. you deserve a medal, some kind of fedi-award, or at least bucketload of gold, cash or whatever brings food on your table and sun in your heart. THANK YOU ❤️
Aww, thank you Lucija! 🙏 I'm really blushing 😊 That's really kind of you, I hope people are finding these guides useful!
I also just saw you made a donation on ko-fi, thank you so much for that! It's going to make a big difference in keeping these sites and accounts going, I'm very very grateful! 👏
@FediTips I always wondered what etiquette is on fedi. Like I would shyly do "Hey you can look at @ feditips @ social ----" instead of doing direct mention. Or direct mention is fine? It's rare but if I find someone I can help out then I do lead them to your website. 
Thanks for making place where people can look up for quick help. Also eased my migration process as it's looked lot harder and one way ish~ then it is really. 
It is absolutely 100% fine to mention me! Thank you for spreading the word 🙏
Usually mentions are fine in general, I don't think most people are bothered by them unless it's spam? As long as there's a good non-abusive reason why someone is being mentioned it's usually okay.
@FediTips
Bookmarked and boosted.
Here's an account that provides excellent Fediverse tips and guidance.
Pleez let all your friends know about Fedi.tips.
Especially good for people new to Mastodon!

@FediTips Yes. Been meaning to change my bio in Mastodon & Bluesky to guide people to Fediverse services; I'll add your account too.
Can you offer any wisdom on how to create widgets for Misskey? @xaetacore and I want to embed our IRC client as an intractable element somewhere but can't quite figure out AiScript.

Unfortunately I'm not a developer so can't help with programming stuff. Sorry! 😞 Have you tried asking in the "Discussions" section of the Misskey Github? https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/discussions
I'm mainly trying to provide tech support for people unfamiliar with the Fediverse.
