Ready to jump in? Start with an #introduction!
A couple good apps to try, both available on @fdroidorg right now:
@AndStatus - Fantastic offline support, though somewhat limited on offline support.
@fedilab@toot.fedilab.app - Very fully featured and well polished app, great for folks with reliable data coming from other networks
When you're first getting started, it's a good idea to check the "Other" section in Preferences, and select the languages of posts you want to read.
Search engine indexing is also disabled by default, if you wish to opt in to indexing, you can set here as well.
@jollyrogue Feel free to get your profile set up so folks know a bit about you! Welcome!
While you're there, might consider checking your notification settings as well. By default, we don't email you very much at all.

Updated the rules a little to allow people from #GreenCountry plus the adjacent areas in #Oklahoma, #Arkansas, #Missouri and #Kansas.
Hmm, someone signing up with a throwaway gmail account from the 92.204.163.64/30 netblock with a whois going back to an apartment block in Moscow.
I'm going to click on....decline. #MastoAdmin
Feeling like the timeline and followers are more than sufficiently primed now, so dropping the louder relays and keeping the smaller, more relevant ones.
That said, wouldn't mind joining a relay of other regional instances.
Please feel free to report #COVID19 misinformation and conspiracy theories.🚮

I'll write something for the blog a little later.
