Makes me wonder just how many are active users

MAU means "monthly active users". As you can see, the ratio MAU/users is not higher for Mastodon than it is for Lemmy.

For me, Mastodon was not very user friendly. I still jump on it every now and then but I'm still not comfortable with it yet.

For me, Mastodon was actually quite nice once I started following hashtags.

Wait, you can do that? Is it possible on the app?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tapping on a hashtag generally gives an option to follow it. It works just like following a person.

Here's the option on Megalodon (which I'd guess is similar to the official app)

And here it is in Trunks

Ooh, lovely. I didn't find rhis on official app but switches to Megalodon and it works like a charm. Thank you!
