A real event -- the huge spike in load on the server of a company, when some inane Tweet brings the multitudes wanting to sign up for service, NOW. Gimme, Now.
Happened, at Easter, and they had to take things offline, brutal load. The tweet in question, baffling how it can bring on such an onslaught. (included in post below)
Teddy B, what a beauty.

My bro Rollo, a gorgeous #BlackCat, shiny coat. And a new White whisker, just for charm.

Rollo has lost weight but he's gained the most magnificent white whisker (singular)!

If you are starting from scratch, do not fall into the vanilla Mastodon fold; the progress on that is rather glacial, if I may say so.
A much nicer option is the Glitch-Social project, a fork off the vanilla people, who produce a much richer experience. I love it.
And there's Pleroma, which is more cutting edge yet, although less common. Light resource usage, very fast servers. Easier to install and maintain.
I wrote a Blog page that has some reasons why I consider those superior, as well as links to each project, manuals and references.

>> And if you know of already existing doc that can explain very basic use of git, don't hesitate to throw that in.
Have you seen this one?

@globcoco Sleep well, Coralie!
@hansw Ideally there would be an automated system doing just that -- but we don't have one. So the human at this end has to say hello and have his notes handy for the reference.
@freemo Wonderful experience.
I once saw an artisan doing intricate moorish marquetry decor in a woodwork project, and it was amazing too. In Granada, España.

Hello, and welcome to Qoto.
Enjoy the network and all it has to offer. If you are new to using Mastodon, there's a good guide here: https://lifehacker.com/a-beginner-s-guide-to-mastodon-1828503235
We also have another new users guide, posted here : https://write.tedomum.net/rgx/suggestions-and-guidelines-for-new-users-written-by-mastodon-art-administrator
Casey Rollins made a video to explain the Fediverse, here :
"I made this video awhile back to help explain how the #Fediverse works."
Like Freemo said. New users normally would start at level 0, and go up from there. Until now, since it was the initial period for the forum (up to 50 users), every new one got a level 1 to start with.
Come with the perks of seeing some forums that are not publicly viewable for example.
There are levels up to 4, 4 being high level, staff.
