   Fediverse = imagine if you could use your twitter account to talk to people on facebook and write comments on youtube. Yes, that's what we've had here on fediverse for some years now.

     Hey new people! 👋

     A guide to some Fediverse terms:

     Toot = Post (named after the Mastodon mascot, in theory)

     Favourite = Like (there's a separate Bookmark function if you really want to keep track of posts)

     Boost = Re-Tweet, shares a post with your followers

     Instance = Server = The site you signed up on, each server is independent

     Birdsite = Hellsite = Twitter

     Fediverse = This place you're on right now, reading this. Mastodon is one kind of server on here, but there are many other types.
