#MASTODONTIPS HUGE THREAD!
For those that joined #Mastodon and grabbed the first server they could find but would prefer to #migrate to a different one, I created a short guide on how to do this quickly and easily.
It also allows you to easily move any followers across to your new profile and leaves a redirection on your old profile for those that find it. 😁👍
And be sure to check out the threaded replies for more tips. I will continue to add more. 👍🏼

Following on from this Initial Mastodon Guide, I have been seeing a lot of people asking for tips on how to find people and content to fill in their Home Timeline.
I decided to make a follow up video on how to best use search and also cover why sometimes you don't get the results you expect.
Any boosts will be appreciated to help others improve their Mastodon experience.

OK, well this is getting far more interesting for me! 😎
Given the open nature of the #ActivityPub protocol, it is possible to pull in the Instagram alternative, Pixelfed, into your Mastodon Home Timeline.
This is great for those looking for an alternative to Instagram, but not wanting to use yet another app.
Here is another short video on how this works and how you can use it yourself!

@paulomalley nice video Paul. I've been using Mastodon and Peertube for a while now and did not know how to do this!
@gsugambit
Thanks! Yeah, I was originally just playing around with it a bit and sort of just went "I wonder if..."
And it turns out you can. 😄👍
