Hashtags really are important on #fediverse.

For many, its the way they'll find you. New users may neglect #Fedi because they can't find similarly-minded folks.

1) Start using hashtags!!!!

2) Let #newUsers know how important #hashtags are. Post about your primary hashtags/#topics + PIN THE TOOT.

3) Don't set your toots to disappear after months unless you have a *very* good reason. Unsure? Ask your admin whether the instance deletes posts after months. Ask to make it YEARS!!

RT @tomasekeli: how far is the james-webb space-telescope, and what is it currently doing?

one more thing I'd like to entrust to Linus and other people like him who make videos or write articles about linux: try alternatives. Don't always just use the same programs that you also used on windows. You are using a different operating system. Be prepared to do things differently. Be prepared to try out alternatives.

For example, you don't have to use EOS utility for your camera. You can import files with Gwenview or whatever. And I also once tried a really neat tool that would stream the camera's video to my desktop that I can't remember the name of right now. Just cause you can't use the same (the official) software for it, doesn't mean it's impossible.
