We are delighted to launch The Fedi Forum -- https://thefedi.forum

This is a companion to the Fedi Wiki. Allowing people to ask questions about #fediverse software and also help others. It is community based, so no official support from fediverse software developers. If you can help someone please do.

Best of all, the forum is compatible with the fediverse; you can reply to posts directly from your own fedi account. (You will need a forum account to create new posts).

We'd be delighted if you participated in the form, and also boost this post to spread the good news.

So much knowledge is lost when developers use Discord style support channels. The Fedi Forum is a great place to retain information and allow others to search in the future.

We're building a section of #theFediWiki to showcase some of the great third-party tools/services available to fediverse users.

Feel free to suggest any you find useful.

thanks

It would be great if you could Boost for maximum coverage

We've added #Vernissage to #theFediWiki. It's just an intro page for now, but hopefully we will get some user guides in place soon.

Looks like an awesome destination for photographers.

Searching in #pixelfed is not great. The Search bar is only for accounts. Here's how to search for hashtags:

This is our new home for our account on the fediverse, so please ensure you follow us here. The #wiki remains where it always has been: https://thefedi.wiki

Are you looking for a **User Guide** to the #Fediverse?

https://thefedi.wiki/

We're always adding articles, and will be expanding to cover more services.

#theFediWiki #UserGuides

We're starting to build the online guides for #PixelFed on #theFediWiki

Hopefully this will help the thousands of new-comers who are flocking to the various servers.

https://thefedi.wiki/pixelfed/user/home

It was definitely time to add #GoToSocial to #TheFediWiki

https://thefedi.wiki/gotosocial/

There are a few articles in the User Guides, including a list of open servers you can sign up to.

If you run a GtS server and are open to registrations, drop us a message and we will add it to the list.

We are delighted to add #Sharkey to The Fedi Wiki: https://thefedi.wiki/sharkey/home ​​

We are working to bring you all the pages you will need to help guide you on your journey

#theFediWiki #UserGuides

We are working to add #Iceshrimp to the Wiki.

https://thefedi.wiki/iceshrimp/home

Currently the interface is very similar to Misskey and Firefish, but through time, as this promising fork grows, we will update the Wiki with Iceshrimp specific articles.

The latest release of Mastodon significantly enhances the Searching function.

There are two elements:

1. Opt in to allow your own posts to be searchable by others:

2. How to use the search feature:

One of the most confusing aspects of the #Fediverse for newcomers is how to follow someone. Especially if the person is not on your own server -- it is not immediately obvious.

Here are three simple ways to follow people:

On #Mastodon: https://thefedi.wiki/mastodon/user/following

On #Firefish: https://thefedi.wiki/firefish/user/following

#thefediwiki #userguide

New to the #Fediverse?
Not sure how to use #Mastodon?

We're here to help.

Constantly expanding our step-by-step User Guides. #Pixelfed coming next.

#theFediWiki

Welcome to our new users. If you're just jumping into #Mastodon and the #fediverse there are some great User Guides over on the Fedi Wiki

https://thefedi.wiki/mastodon/user/home

Useful tips there too for our more seasoned users.

I am delighted to have contributed too these guides and tips. If you have something useful why not get in touch with the team.

On the User Guides for #Mastodon we explain how to slow down your timeline if everything is scrolling past you.

https://thefedi.wiki/mastodon/user/slow-down-timeline

#theFediWiki #UserGuides

New on the User Guides for #Firefish, we explain how to enable push notification.

With a bit of sorcery, never miss a message; even when you are not on the Firefish website.
