Right, here's the plan:
A big problem with FediTips is that the same tips get repeated quite often because not everyone saw them the first time.
Then, if people half-remember a tip they saw on here, or if they want to find out more about a topic, there's no easy way for them to look it up later.
So, I'm going to change the format of this account to be based around a web page:
https://growyourown.services/an-unofficial-guide-to-mastodon-and-the-fediverse
(It forms part of a site I run at https://growyourown.services to encourage non-technical people to host their own online services.)
I'll gradually add sections to the page covering tips from the past year, and will post updates about it on FediTips as I do so.
Any new tips featured on FediTips will also be added to the page. That way, there's always somewhere people can go to to easily catch up on tips they missed.
Any thoughts on this as a plan? Honest feedback appreciated!
@feditips Also, seeing your title *Unofficial* guide to masto made me think... Maybe you could make it official somehow? Maybe have it added to official Masto documentation? (as in, it's present in both places) I'm sure this would be beneficial for both you and the Mastodon project in general. Give more visibility to your page, and give masto users nice tips and tricks!
Umm... thanks for the vote of confidence :)
I think it's better for me to stay unofficial though, so I can give a more honest opinion about Fediverse stuff.
Also, not sure they would want my writing anyway
