    I joined #mastodon last week, on a whim, with no idea what to expect

    Minutes later, I was welcomed by @dillyd which has never happened on any other platform and was a wonderful introduction. So I posted a couple pictures of my #cats, and found, to my surprise, people reacting and interacting

    Maybe it's because I'm not fighting an algorithm, or maybe I just found a place where folks truly appreciate cats. Either way, I'm very happy to be here, and I hope you're prepared for more cat pictures

      @rufustheduck @dillyd

      Welcome! Not only a lovely cat photo but you added Alt Text too ๐Ÿ‘

      It might be worthwhile for you to know that this place runs on hashtags. They are effectively the algorithm ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘

      The Fediverse is a great place!

        I'm so happy you're liking it here.
        Shout out to @Kitty who published a twelve days of fedi thread on welcoming new people to mastodon. They inspired me.

                        @rufustheduck @dillyd I estimate that a good 30% of Fedizens are basically the social media managers for their cats.

                            @rufustheduck here there's fun and dialogue ๐Ÿ˜ Soon you'll have a network of people. Feels much like early twitter to me.

                            Someone already told you some tips and tricks?

                                      I joined #mastodon last week, on a whim, with no idea what to expect

                                      Minutes later, I was welcomed by @dillyd which has never happened on any other platform and was a wonderful introduction. So I posted a couple pictures of my #cats, and found, to my surprise, people reacting and interacting

                                      Maybe it's because I'm not fighting an algorithm, or maybe I just found a place where folks truly appreciate cats. Either way, I'm very happy to be here, and I hope you're prepared for more cat pictures

                                          @rufustheduck @dillyd your cats gorgeous, im glad you've found the platform a lot of decent people had to shift spaces to since the other platform is now become a dark place full of hatred & political content shoved into our faces
