For interesting topics. But remember this is a Linux Forum.

You can talk about other distros here, but no MX bashing. You can email the developers of MX if you just want to say you dislike or hate MX.

Cool, I like the "All posts are in chronological order, not “optimized” to push ads into your timeline."

I'm still getting clued in myself. Things: it's not easy to find a special-interest instance. Follow people who talk about things that interest you. Search on topics to get cross-instance posts, eg, fountainpens. Use hashtags when posting, eg, #fountainpens. Post your announcements on Mastodon as you do in Twitter (birdsite in mastodonese.-) Things you post on .social will be seen by people on other instances who have followed you. People are generally polite.
