Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 09:25:07 @barrygoldman1 sauropods.win is the name of the server you're using. Mastodon is the name of the software it runs. |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 21:16:02 @llewelly so am i less likely to see posts or reposts of people from the other servers? seems very small group here |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 21:27:46 @barrygoldman1 1. someone you follow boosts a post by someone from another server 2. someone from another server uses a hashtag you follow 3. you follow someone from another server 4. you check the "federated timeline" |
Föderation EN Mo 20.01.2025 21:31:28 Hi Barry 🙂 You're on Mastodon, and the server you're using to get onto Mastodon is sauropods.win You and I are on different servers, but we're able to talk to each other because the servers are connected to form a single network. It's similar to how you can phone someone even if they use a different phone provider, as the providers are connected to form the phone network. |
