How does Mastodon work? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So recently learnt about Mastodon, thought I will just try it!

However, I have never used Twitter (ahem, sorry. “X”). I don’t really understand how it all works.

I have followed a few communities/people but all I see is single chat-messages with no replies beneath it and couldn’t really see about what it is unless it’s specific said in the sentence.

Could someone try to explain it a bit, a shorty summary or redirect me to somewhere it is already explained?

Note: I’m using Mammoth app for iOS, for Mastodon.

I actually like the idea of just shouting my thoughts into the void. It's probably why I feel it's easier to post on Mastodon then on Lemmy.

I was a little upset when I noticed some people started following me.
