Well, I'm here...maybe I'll figure out how to use Mastodon properly:grinning: before the heat death of the universe...maybe not?

@vhf @turi basic issue is what's my 'address' - am I scottgal@octadon.social or something else?

@scottgal @turi yes, you are "scottgal" of the instance "octodon.social", I am "vhf" of the instance "techn.ical.ist". I can ping you by prefixing your username with @, and joining username and domain with @, so @ scottgal @ octodon.social (without the spaces).

@vhf @turi thanks for clearing that up...was trying to follow someone from an embed and couldn't get it to work.Probably 'fat finger' syndrome

@scottgal @turi Yes. So if you wanted to follow me from this page: techn.ical.ist/users/vhf/remot you'd have to enter scottgal @ octodon.social (again, without spaces)

@scottgal You have roughly a billion years, right? You've got this.

@scottgal Joining a new platform is always like being the only person at a party that no one knows. Racing to get the hang of it sometime before the sun explodes, myself!
